The problem it solves

You want to know when your website starts ranking for new keywords, but checking rankings by hand for every domain and keyword you track is slow and easy to put off. Without regular monitoring, you miss early wins worth capitalizing on, like a new blog post that starts gaining traction. Manually comparing this week's rankings to last week's is tedious spreadsheet work.

Who it fits

SEO specialists and marketers tracking keyword rankings for one or more domains.

How it works

  1. On a weekly schedule, reads your tracked keywords and domains from Google Sheets
  2. Pulls fresh keyword ranking data from Google via DataForSEO
  3. Compares the new results against the previous week's snapshot
  4. Adds any newly ranked keywords to a dedicated Google Sheet
  5. Sends a summary of what changed to Slack
What you get

Keywords you discover before competitors do

You get a weekly Slack summary showing exactly which new keywords your domains started ranking for that week.

What you get

A running log of newly ranked keywords in Google Sheets and a weekly Slack summary of new rankings.

What you need

A DataForSEO account, a Google Sheets account, and a Slack account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
