GKT results displaying keyword 3 times

flinty · 05-10-2010, 11:02:46 AM

Hi

Does anyone know for sure if this is what i think it is when using the new GKT!?

The results now display the keywords that are searched for 3 times, even if the 'exacts' check box is checked!?

1) Keyword = broad
2) Keyword with quotes = phrase
3) Keyword in brackets = exact

Cheers,

Flinty

Yeh pretty sure this wasn't happening a few days ago - not clear and very confusing!

Yes I noticed this a couple of days ago. I think they're just trying to be helpful. I find it quite useful.

Hi accelerator

Yeh I agree it is helpful. Does save time. Just want to confirm 100% that's what it is as opposed to guessing or presuming etc.

Just would have thought ".." would have been used to show 'exacts' as opposed to phrases!?

I don't really like it, what's the point of the check boxes if they don't do anything.

Ah you know what - oopps just seen that with the 'checkboxes' down the left side that they have the "" around phrase and [ ] around exacts so I now know for sure which one is which.

Doh! Thanks guys!

It only happens for the exact term you put in but I agree it is anoying

Be simpler and more sensible if they just removed the one(s) that you untick... not difficult is it!!

Also - when I want "Exacts" for 100 domains, I don't want "Exacts plus phrases which include exacts".

The GKT is strange. It shows some really strange numbers too, don't trust it at all at the moment.
