About
ContentSwift - Content research/optimization tool for SEO.
Using this tool, you'll get relevant information regarding specific keyword searches and hints on what other top-ranking results did with their article/page.
Right now we're focusing on Google SERP only
The commercial version for this open source tool would be something like: Surfer SEO, Frase io, ClearScope, NeuronWriter, etc.. (of course they offer more features than this).
- This is for personal usage, no authentication setup needed in the app itself.

Status
Under heavy development. Not for production.
Tech
Backend
backend-crt is a docker setup for fastApi and Postgre
Frontend
frontend-crt is manual nextjs installation
Scrape API (SerpAPI)
Scraping Google search result on our own will require a lot of time to prevent us from getting blocked and getting the proper structure. That's why we're using simple solution from SerpApi.
Python lib
Setup env file
- Create new empty
.envfile at/backend-crt/srcfolder - Get your
API_KEYfrom serpapi.com - Paste your Serp api key in
.envfile atbackend-crt
SERPAPI_KEY=$here_is_your_api_key
Run the project
Make sure docker app is open
- run backend (API)
cd backend-crt && docker-compose up -d --build
- Setup Database (1 time only)
Cd into src
cd backend-crt/src
Activating a virtual env (setup if not yet)
source env/bin/activate
Run migration
python db/models.py
- Run Frontend (API)
- Not inside python virtual env
- Now from root folder (another terminal or just go back).
cd frontend-crt && yarn dev
Project is available at http://localhost:3000
TODO
- Add visual screenshot
- Add sample compare to other research tool
- add proper doc/landing page
- Add short video
Potential Issue / improvement
- Remove code as part of word frequency: Ignore content between triple backtick
- User rotating-proxy to bypass individual web scraping (Find free proxy as a start)
