Why Google Adwords Keyword Tool is showing me false results?
Like i know that the keyword has huge competition, but that site shows minimaml competition, even if that keyword has over 8million ************ searches? And the keywords which has minimal searches and minimum of competition, shows up like they have high competition lol.

It's confusing me, maybe i have to edit somekind of settings there? Any suggestions, ideas?

Is it showing you those results in "broad" match or "exact" match? That makes a huge difference. Use "exact" to get a more realistic idea of what to expect (but even then don't bank on it, as those numbers can also be inflated depending on the ky entered).

Anyway it is showing false competition, for a keyword "article" the competition is LOW, it's bullshit! When i were at UK everything seemed working fine.

I would check out some of the free tools seomoz provide to get a better idea on what the competition really is

I am also confused by the figure gap between MNF and GG External tool, when I spent so many time to find several green words, but found it's wrong figure in GG suddenly.... that's boring problems!!

There has been at least one big thread regarding this keyword tool and how inaccurate is deemed to be. The old tool was a joke IMHO and the new tool seems a little more realistic.
