The problem it solves

You want to know where your pages rank for the keywords that matter, but checking Google by hand every day is tedious and easy to forget. Without a consistent log you can't tell if a ranking drop happened last week or three weeks ago.

Who it fits

SEO specialists, content marketers, and agencies who track keyword rankings for themselves or clients.

How it works

  1. Every morning the system runs a live Google search for your keywords
  2. It filters out ads and keeps only organic results
  3. The top results, with URLs and descriptions, are logged to a spreadsheet
  4. Any errors are logged separately so nothing gets missed
What you get

Ranking shifts you catch the same morning

You get your keyword rankings checked every morning and logged straight to a spreadsheet, so you always know where you stand.

What you get

A daily spreadsheet log of your keyword rankings, ready to review or share with clients.

What you need

A search data API subscription and a Google Sheets 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.
