Hi Eric, thanks for taking a few minutes to review this
I compared it to both the logged-in version and the public version of
the traffic estimator, but what worried me more was the response of
the data, since it looks to be out of range.
CPC of $947392
Click per day 0.009727052
both of those seem to be WAY out of range.
response data is posted below :)
Array
(
[id] => -1
[lowerAvgPosition] => 1.0
[lowerClicksPerDay] => 0.009727052
[lowerCpc] => 631594
[upperAvgPosition] => 3.0
[upperClicksPerDay] => 0.06450792
[upperCpc] => 947392
)
Estimates for keyword with text "mars cruise":
Lower average position is "1.0".
Upper average position is "3.0".
Lower clicks per day is "0.009727052".
Upper clicks per day is "0.06450792".
Lower cpc is "631594".
Upper cpc is "947392".
Thanks again!
