Overture is no longer giving results

    I know they stopped giving new data since jan, but i still used it for keyword research on niches that don't change much. Im not sure if its permanent or not, but i tried keywords i know that get searched and its returning no suggestions.

    O well, i guess its only google trends and adwords keyword too now...

    Most Keywords softwares rely on Overture to calculate their KEI value. Is that also the death of the 'Keyword Estimation Index' analysing within such tools too?

    I noticed that KeyWord Elite has replaced Overture results with WordTracker results. Not a good sign for tools with search results powered by Overture.

    Just noticed this now.

    The tool that I use scrapes overture so that doesn't work now.

    I wish I had some warning before they killed it off.

    Its sad to see overture go. Overture is probably taken over by Yahoo and is closed right now. Now the only optional site for keyword is wordtrecker.com
