SERP Tracking API: Search Engine Ranking Tracking API

What the hell does this thing do?

Engaged in SEO know, staring at their own website in the search results rankings with the stock market to see the market like. The traditional way to either manually check (exhausted), or use tools to batch check (easy to be blocked), this timeSERP Tracking APIIt will come in handy. It can automatically crawl the search results of the specified keywords at regular intervals, but also to organize the data into a report - but the problem is that frequent requests are easy to be detected by the search engine, this time you have to rely on the proxy IP to play cover.

Why do I have to use a proxy IP?

For example, if you use your own network to check "cell phone repair" 500 times a day, you will be recognized as a crawler in less than three days. If you switch toDynamic residential IP for ipipgoIf you are a real user, you can change your IP every time you request, just like playing hide-and-seek, you can't even catch the search engine. Here is a pit to pay attention to: do not use the data center IP, that thing's IP segment characteristics are too obvious, minutes to be pulled black.

 Python Sample Code
import requests

proxies = {
    "http": "http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020",
    "https": "http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.com:9020"
}

response = requests.get(
    "https://api.serptracker.com/v1/rank?keyword=手机维修&domain=example.com",
    proxies=proxies
)
print(response.json())

How to choose a reliable agency service?

There are a bunch of proxy providers on the market, but the real test is thatipipgoThere are three killers:

Especially theirIntelligent Rotation StrategyThe IP replacement frequency can be automatically adjusted according to the protection strength of the target website. Last week, a customer used an ordinary proxy to check the rankings, and the probability of triggering the CAPTCHA was as high as 70%, and after changing to ipipgo, it directly dropped to 12%.

A practical guide to avoiding the pit

1. Don't be greedy.: Even if you use a proxy, the frequency of requests has to be controlled. It is recommended that each keyword interval30-60 secondsAutomatically pause when encountering CAPTCHA
2. Fake Header: Remember to add the Referer and User-Agent in the request header, and use ipipgo's browser fingerprinting emulation feature to save time!
3. Exception handling: good timeout retry mechanism, it is recommended to use the exponential backoff algorithm, do not be silly continuous retries

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: Why do I need more than one IP at the same time?
A: Suppose you want to monitor 100 keywords, it takes 10 hours to check 10 times per hour for single IP. Use ipipgo'smulti-IP poolThe first 10 IPs are working at the same time, and it's safer to do it in 1 hour.

Q: What should I do if the API returns data with an error?
A: First check whether the proxy connection is normal, recommended ipipgo'sConnectivity Test InterfaceIf it returns a 403 error, it is likely that the IP is recognized. If it returns a 403 error, it is likely that the IP has been recognized, so switch to a new IP immediately.

Q: Can't I use the free agent?
A: Brother, free is the most expensive! Previously, some people try to save trouble by using free agents, and as a result, the collected ranking data30% is all wrong., might as well check it manually. ipipgo is giving away 5G of traffic for new users, enough to test the effects of the

Tell the truth.

In fact, the most feared thing about doing rank tracking is not the technical problems, but thedata delay. Some APIs say real-time data, but actually cache last week's results. Use ipipgo's proxy withSearch Engine Direct ModeI'm not sure if I can get the most up-to-date data, but I'm sure I can get the most recent data. Last week, when we helped customers to check, we found that for the same keywords, the data obtained by ordinary proxy is 8 hours later than the actual ranking, and the error is not more than 15 minutes after changing to ipipgo.

One last rant: don't save money on IP quality! I've seen too many people trying to save on proxy fees and end up with banned accounts, inaccurate data, and ultimately rework. UseipipgoThis type of professional services, it seems to spend money actually save time, the key is the data is reliable ah!
