Seo Data - What Apis Do You Use? How Do You Use It?

[unibotsi 7]

Hi Folks

 

As i am starting to build some helping Tools which do SEO Tasks, I am into using APIs that provide SEO relevant data for checking the basic stuff.

 

Basic metrics are meta data, text length, keyword usage, link data, socials signals (just because clients love that shit), "text quality", page speed, and so on. Basically all that stuff what is relevant for a landingpage check - or on a wider scale, using a scraper to get this data for more than one page, even sidewide.

 

I think some of you are doing quite the same, maybe more, maybe less. I am testing some APIs right now, mostly free stuff, but did not get quality results yet. If i get some positive results i will post my results here aswell.

 

API Index:

 

Data for SEO

https://dataforseo.com/pricing  (Not free, but prepay and pay per request)

They have a very interesting API. You can get data for onpage checks, keywords, backlinks, Google Shopping, Amazon and so on.

 

MOZ

https://moz.com/products/api (Limited if free, 25k results per month and i guess one request every 10 seconds)

Typical MOZ Data, mainly link metrics and page metrics like Domain Authority, Page Authority and Spam Score.

 

 

So - what APIs do you use for checking SEO relevant metrics and what do you do with it?

 -> I guess this topic will be very interesting for new members or "not-yet"-ubot user, so let us provide top notch content here.
