DP Keyword Tracker - inconsistent results

    I'm a big fan of the DP Keyword Tracker. I have a large amount of keywords that I track. Of late I have been getting inconsistent results. One day it works fine, the next it gives me N/As for most of my keywords. The actual Google results are not changing. Google does have some type of limit but I am not sure how it works.

    My only guess is that maybe I have to wait a full 24 hours before re-running it. Has anyone figured it out?

    Yes, if you have to many hits to the Google servers, then you have to wait 24 hours. One thing that also may help is turn off any keywords that have been N/A for a while or adjust the maximum search limit down to 100.

    Thanks for the info. Is it exactly 24 hours. It had been over 23 hours since I last ran the tracker.

    Hey CanadianEh could you tell me how you registered for a Google API Key?
    I'm really in need of one and I cant seem to figure out how to get one.
    Thanks :)

    @blaze718 - You can't get a Google API key directly from Google anymore. If you really want one, try searching Ebay or Craigslist. I bought mine on Ebay sometime ago. I could be wrong however I've heard though that Google is discontinuing the Google API's as of August 31st, 2009.
