detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly track your website's search engine ranking for specific keywords. This workflow automatically pulls keywords from Google Sheets, fetches SERP data using Bright Data, and records your domain's rank.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow provides a robust solution for automated SEO rank tracking. It begins by scheduling daily checks or allowing manual testing. Keywords are read directly from a Google Sheet, then transformed for API requests. The workflow leverages Bright Data's powerful proxy network to query Google search results for each keyword. A sophisticated code node parses the returned HTML to identify your domain's position in the search results, noting the specific URL found and the total number of results checked. Finally, these detailed rank insights are written back to your Google Sheet for easy analysis and reporting. This seamless automation saves valuable time and ensures consistent, up-to-date SEO performance data.
