Is there an automated way to import Keyword Rank Tracker data in Google Data Studio?
-
I am creating an SEO Dashboard in Google Data Studio.
While it's easy to import data from Google Search Console, I have troubles in importing data from Mozzarellas tools.I thought about uploading a CSV file with the ranking to a Google Sheet Document, but I cannot find a way to do this at regular intervals with manual intervention.

The add-on only appears to import MozRank and link targeting information. Can you confirm that rank can be imported? Thanks!

To be honest I found Google Data Studio pretty horrible and was able to work much more easily with Microsoft's Power BI, though for corporations it's not free and the price-tag is steep
One feature that Power BI had was that, in addition to connecting to set platforms like Google Analytics, it could also connect to custom objects like an SQL database
If Google have been smart and kept up, I'd expect this to be a feature by now in Data Studio...

Looks like I was right!
This could make your life really easy as long as your rank tracking supplier provides an API for their tool. You can make requests to the API and build your own SQL database of that same data for your own records. The server holding the SQL database would have to regularly run API-based tasks to pull the data from your ranking supplier, into itself
Once that was done, you could then just connect to your SQL database via GDS
- You'd need a developer to build the database and the tasks which updated it (API fetches)
- If your ranking supplier changed their API significantly you'd have to pay to get it updated
- You'd need to pay to host your database online somewhere
Other than that... Seems like a good solution. Sorry it's not super cheap and simple - though!
Even if your ranking supplier provides back-end exports only and no API, you can still do what you want. You'd just have to create a script that uses a headless browser to export the data and then push the CSV exports to your database. Again you'd assuredly need a developer's help! Using something like Python's Selenium or Windmill modules might be feasible
Hope that helps

I have not used it, but Supermetrics, an add-on for Google Sheets and Google Data Studio, has a Moz database connector. they have a free trial to see if it works out for you.

How do you delete keywords in bulk?
Hi, in the 'rankings' section of one of my campaigns, I want to delete almost 200 keywords. Is there a way to delete keywords in bulk please? The only way I can find is to individually select keywords to delete but this will take too long to do with almost 200 keywords. Thanks

Search volume discrepancies between keyword tools
I'm feeling like I'm basing all my research time on tools that I cannot necessarily trust. Between Google keyword planner, Keywords everywhere chrome extension, and Moz keyword explorer, I'm getting wildly different results on 2 simple keywords related to colleges with baking & pastry arts degrees. "baking college", "baking colleges" So Keyword planner won't give me any search volume for those 2 words, I don't even see them in the results. Instead, it decides I really meant "baker college" which has 33,100 global searches. I tried telling it use only closely related terms, but it keeps giving me "baker college" and refuses to show me the terms I asked for. Stubbornly useless. Keywords everywhere says both of these keywords bring in 33,100 searches. It does not tell me those searches were for "baker college." Totally misleading. Moz keyword explorer says baking college as 0-10 volume, baking colleges has 101-200 volume. So at least it's not trying to give me "baker college" numbers. Perhaps I can trust this, but it's not convenient to upload hundreds of various keywords at a time to pull the volume numbers like I do with the other tools. With Keyword planner making assumptions and grouping unrelated terms together, and Keywords everywhere using those numbers without pointing out the assumptions, I feel like I can't trust anything without taking time to dig into the discrepancies, which is impossible with hundreds of keywords. Do you know of any good search volume tools that don't force or hide assumptions? Thanks.

Moz Keyword Tool Monthly Volume
Ive recently put together a Keyword List of about 100 keywords on the Moz Keyword Explorer tool. One keyword, aerial filming, stood out as very low search volume of 51 - 100. I took the same 100 keywords and passed them through the Google Keyword Planner by Google AdWords. Aerial Filming has an average search volume of 1k - 10k according to the Keyword Planner. Even though Keyword Planner gives me a range of 1k - 10k, the lowest number is still 10 times higher than what the Moz Keyword Explorer was indicating. This drastic difference of volume was consistent across all 100 keywords. All of the Monthly Volume numbers were divided by 10. Why does Moz Keyword Tool display a search volume that is 10x less than what Google Keyword Planner is suggesting?

Need a Reliable Free Bulk Keyword Rank Checker
I have 2,871 keywords that I need to check Google rank for on 4 separate domains. Does anyone know of any FREE tools or plugins available that will allow for this volume that wont get my IP banned by Google? Even the Moz Rank Checker only allows to enter 1 keyword at a time for up to 200 per day. Who would seriously enter in 200 keywords, one by one all day, every day?
