Scrape Google to get content insights 

Search Engine Optimization is the practice of creating articles and pages to rank these pieces of content at the top positions on Google (and other search engines.)

The entire SEO process involves many activities such as keywords research, competition analysis, content marketing, link building, content promotion, and many more.

Understanding the SERP, and moreover, understanding the pages ranking at the top organic positions is essential.

This knowledge will support you with the preparation work and content marketing tasks.

Quote from Rory Truesdale – Mining the SERP for SEO, Content & Customer Insights

Content scraping can be used for many things. Let’s review some uses cases together.

Sentiment analysis

The SERP is a mirror of the search intent.

Keep in mind that Google wants to deliver the best user experience and is here to answer any questions. 

Google is moving from a Search Engine to an Answer Engine. And the SERP is reflecting this mutation. 

With a thorough analysis, you will get the intention of the searchers. The what, why, and how behind every search queries.

Competitor analysis

The pages you find on the first page of Google are not here randomly. They semantically correspond to what the users are looking for. 

These pages contain all the ingredient to be at the top of Google SERP. 

By scraping the content, you will get the information about what makes these pages successful.

What topics they are covering. What key learnings they provide to the users. 

SEO Copywriting

Overall you have to produce a memorable piece of content. 

You have to offer your audience a great experience. Better than the other content and pages already available in the SERP.

This is the goal of SEO Copywriting.

The analysis of the search result pages will help you to understand what topics are covered, and what wording is used to communicate with the audience. 

By analyzing in detail each page of the SERP, you can identify gaps and produce a more in-depth content.

  1. I am fed up with using so many tools to get one post live. Aren’t there any companies out there that have released a single app that can handle everything I need? The only alternative I’ve found til now is a tool called INK for All :http://bit.ly/2IiHXlQ Looks like it might be what I want. Any other tips? Trying it out myself…

  2. This is an awesome tool. Is there any limit to how many searches we can do? I need to search for 500 terms a day for 7 days.

  3. Hi, this is a super awesome tool! I’m not a developer, but I like to understand what is running behind the browser. In your article you mentioned Python.
    May I ask which languages are used to create a tool like this? How many coding hours to get these results?
    As I said, I’m not an expert, just curious and fascinated by those who can code!

  4. Hello Samuel. I stumbled on your site by pure luck while looking for ways to scrape with Google Sheets. Very happy to have found your page. I would like to second what UC is asking. This is a bit of a personal goal, but the tool you made is similar to a project that I’ve been wanting to duct-tape together as a way to learn to code. I know you can’t give up the recipe to your secret sauce, but any additional insights would be great. Keep up the great work on thruuu and the insightful blog posts.

  5. One tool that caught my attention is the video to text converter https://audext.com/video-to-text/ mentioned. It’s amazing how technology has advanced to make our lives easier and more efficient. With this converter, we can quickly and easily turn video content into text, making it easier to consume and analyze.
