Frequently asked questions
Why do I need regular access to the Wordtracker data?
The data is updated weekly. New terms are added to the list and old ones are removed on a daily basis. To have the clearest and most current picture of the web you will need access to our latest snapshot.
Why is the Wordtracker cost per search higher than some other APIs?
You get more query horsepower. With Wordtracker you can enter up to 100 keyword search terms in one call, giving you the flexibility of searching on several keywords in a niche at a time, making the process faster for you.
Are we allowed to use your data within any software application?
No. When you send us your proposal we will ask you about what you will be using the data for. We will not supply the API if any uses conflict with our standard terms of service. These can be found at: www.wordtracker.com/terms
Can I sell the data on to my users?
If you want to use the data commercially and the model fits within our terms of service, there is a specific agreement for that, which you'll need to contact us about at support@wordtracker.comCan I get access to the API with my current subscription?
The subscriptions to our tools are not currently linked to the API which is managed in a different way - payments (for those using data internally) are made according to the amount of calls you believe you'll need to use, rather than on a timed basis. Commercial API use is subject to a monthly fee.
