    hello,

    i have a question and i amnot shure if there is the correct place to ask:

    the old google api is not posibly to get (bec. that a lot good keyword ranking checkers not work any more - like digitalpoint keyword checker) - so do you think its illegal / breaks TOS to not use a api in a ranking checker software who asks google like a webbrowser and gets so the ranking results?

    regards

    It's not illegal, it's just frowned upon -- Basically there has to be a human emulation delay of at least 5 seconds in between each keyword ranking query -- IBP 11 uses proxies and a script that just emulates human behavior in order to do keyword ranking checks.

    There are plenty of other solutions and I'm sure there are possible queries for keyword ranking programs using the google API, I would just need to look into it.

    FYI the Digital Point keyword tracker works.
