Claiming to be "leading" when you just entered the competition? You're still in beta.
Speaking of being in beta, you should probably mention that on your registration and/or terms of service. Also, incentives to sign up during this period could be a good thing.
Actually, we've been running for about a year with a small number of online marketing agencies, so the service is very polished on the backend with a tested API. Allowing the public to join is what's new about us.
It's true, saying "leading" is pretty boastful. We're proud of the service we built, and we set out to be the leading service from day 1. I agree it should be removed until we can quote a reputable source.
The design is unpolished, especially those big rectangle buttons.
I also cannot easily find any information about your company anywhere on the site. I wouldn't sign up for service with a company that I know nothing about.
This site has awesome written in its future. Don't let the suggestions on formatting/copy get you down (but don't ignore them either). I'll definitely use this in my day to day!
That's great! If you do keep using it, you can stay in touch with me at admin@keywordenvy.com if you ever need anything, or have ideas on how we can make the service work better for you.
This is great feedback. As always, the price point is really tough to settle upon. I thought of analytics suites such as Clicky when setting the price and tried to keep the end user in mind. We also work directly with marketing agencies, and in those cases the prices are set in bulk. I always go back to this article by 37signals when trying to determine a proper price: http://37signals.com/svn/posts/1287-ask-37signals-how-did-yo...
Looking at the design again, I can see how the icons stand out too much. The original concept was to keep the design very flat and without too much eye candy.
Again, thank you for taking the time and giving advice.

Really? Sounds like bold overstatement to me.

We have an About Us page, but it's more about what we do than who we are as a company. http://www.keywordenvy.com/aboutus.php
UI notes:
- Ditch the "reset" button.
- Only search Google US by default. Other options should be hidden away.
- Lose the numbers next to the search terms. They don't add value, and I'm fully capable of counting to 5.
- It needs overall polish. And I'm not referring to making your buttons glossy.
- Nearly every major link has an icon next to it. Most of those can go, and in some cases can be replaced by a simple button & text.
