    This appears to have stopped working. I get a message about the api being over loaded. Am I the only one?

    Actually I never used any of DP tools in the past, but as far as I remember it needs a Google API Key!
    So why bother using this tool if you could be simply using any other one, or write your own?

    I have told you in the first place, I never used the DP tool ;)
    But you can try this one out: http://www.googlerankings.com/

    Google API Key is also required to check Google Ranking.

    This has been a problem for a while. The API seems to limit the number of hits you make. It used to be 1000 per day, but now it might be less. Another theory is that by reducing the number of "N/A" or lower ranked keywords (like ones that are > 100 in the serps) works. I cleaned my list up and it's working for me again.
