Outseo Scraper: Full Leaderboard

What does Outseo do?

Outseo Scraper turns the outseo.lol organic-traffic leaderboard into structured data. outseo.lol ranks indie software products by verified Google Search Console clicks, which makes it a rare thing: a traffic leaderboard where the numbers come from the sites themselves rather than from a third party's estimate.

The board paginates at 50 entries per page. This actor walks every page, so a run returns the whole leaderboard and computes each site's click share against the full board rather than one page's subtotal. On top of the entries it can return the board's own biggest movers, the published click-through-rate benchmarks per Google position, and the dated weekly report.

There is no search box on outseo.lol and none is invented here: the keyword, domain, rank and click inputs are filters applied to the board, and leaving them empty returns all of it.

Key features

• 🧾 The whole board, not the first page: the leaderboard paginates at 50 entries per page. This actor walks every page and returns all of them: 218 ranked sites on the last full measurement, in about five seconds. Reading only the first page returns 23% of the board with no error to tell you so.
• 🧮 Percentages computed against the whole board: clicksSharePct, medianOrganicClicks and totalOrganicClicks are derived from the complete board, so they mean what they say. Computed from one page instead, the median of this board reads 8,292 clicks rather than 69.5 — the same word for a number 119x out.
• 🚀 Momentum from the source, on the first run: the board publishes its own current-vs-previous 28-day change, and every row carries it as moverRank and moverChangePct. You get real momentum on run number one, not after a week of building your own history.
• 📐 Click-through rate by Google position: one extra row carries the published benchmarks: measured click-through rate for each Google position band, where a typical site's impressions actually sit, the desktop/mobile/tablet split, and the strongest search markets. Each figure arrives with the number of sites behind it, so you can judge how much weight it carries.
• 🗞️ The dated weekly report as data: the weekly State of Organic Search arrives as a row, with the week it covers and its numbered conclusions as structured fields. Run it on a schedule and you accumulate the series instead of re-reading the page.
• ♻️ Incremental mode: recurring runs emit and charge only for entries that actually moved: a new rank, a new click count, changed copy or a changed link. A board of 218 rows where six changed costs six rows, not 218. Note that any board filter makes the run a partial view, so removed-from-board detection stays switched off for that run rather than reporting the rows you filtered out as gone.
• 📌 Change classification: each record carries a changeType of NEW / UPDATED / UNCHANGED / REAPPEARED / EXPIRED. Default emits NEW + UPDATED + REAPPEARED; opt into the others with emitUnchanged / emitExpired.
• 🔔 Notifications: Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp Cloud API, and generic webhook out of the box. Pair with incremental for daily new-listing alerts without pipeline glue.
• 📦 Compact mode: core fields only — rank, domain, clicks, share and the linked URL — for feeding an LLM or building a comparison sheet without carrying every column.
• 🔌 MCP connectors: export your results into Notion via Apify's MCP connectors — a clean run-summary page, no glue code. Opt-in via the App connector field; deterministic field-mapping, no AI. Built on Apify's connector framework, so more destinations open up as their catalog grows.

What data can you extract from outseo.lol?

Each result includes Core site fields (listingId, rowType, rank, domain, outboundUrl, faviconUrl, organicClicks, and clicksSharePct, and more) and extended fields (description and detailFetched). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as null, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Input

The main inputs are a search keyword and a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema.

Key parameters:

• query — Optional. Keeps only entries whose domain or description contains this keyword. Leave empty to get the whole leaderboard. Use a JSON array for several keywords, for example ["ai","video"]. An entry matching any of them is kept.
• startUrls — Optional. Leaderboard URLs, for example https://outseo.lol/. Leave empty and the whole board is scraped. Pagination is walked for you, so a single board URL is enough. (default: [])
• excludeKeywords — Drops entries whose domain or description contains any of these. (default: [])
• domains — Keep only these domains. A domain also matches its subdomains, so example.com keeps blog.example.com but never notexample.com. (default: [])
• minRank — Start from this position. Pair with the maximum to pull a slice such as 20-50 without paying for the rows above it. Empty or 0 = start at rank 1. (default: 0)
• maxRank — Stop at this position. Empty or 0 = no limit. (default: 0)
• minOrganicClicks — Keep only entries with at least this many clicks in the board's window. Empty or 0 = no floor. (default: 0)
• maxOrganicClicks — Keep only entries with at most this many clicks. Useful for finding smaller sites. Empty or 0 = no ceiling. (default: 0)
• includeSpotlight — The board shows one unranked spotlight entry, drawn at RANDOM on every page load. It is off by default because it is not a board position: in incremental mode it would report a different site as new, and last run's as gone, on every single run. Turn it on to capture it. It arrives tagged placement "lucky". (default: false)
• includeBoardStats — One row with the board totals: ranked entries, total organic clicks, top domain, median clicks and the board's own biggest movers. These are the denominators the click-share percentages are computed against. (default: true)
• includeStats — One row from the stats page: measured click-through rate per Google position, where a typical site's impressions sit, the desktop/mobile/tablet split and the strongest search markets, each with the sample size behind it. (default: true)
• includeWeeklyReport — One row from the dated weekly State of Organic Search, with its numbered conclusions and the week it covers. (default: true)
• ...and 23 more parameters

Input examples

The whole leaderboard — Leave every filter empty and the run walks all pages of the board, so each click share is computed against the full board rather than one page of it.

→ Every ranked site, plus the board summary row, the click-through-rate benchmarks and the latest weekly report.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://outseo.lol/"
  ],
  "maxResults": 0,
  "includeBoardStats": true,
  "includeStats": true,
  "includeWeeklyReport": true
}

Follow a set of competitors — Pass the domains you care about and only those rows come back, with their real rank on the live board.

→ One row per matching domain: rank, organic clicks, click share, average clicks per day and sponsor placement.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://outseo.lol/"
  ],
  "domains": [
    "youtubetotranscript.com",
    "labcanvas.com"
  ],
  "includeBoardStats": false,
  "includeStats": false,
  "includeWeeklyReport": false
}

Small sites that are climbing — Cap the click count to skip the head of the board, then sort on the mover fields to see which of the long tail is actually growing.

→ Lower-traffic ranked sites with their mover rank and percentage change where the board reports one.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://outseo.lol/"
  ],
  "maxOrganicClicks": 5000,
  "includeBoardStats": true,
  "includeStats": false,
  "includeWeeklyReport": false
}

Daily change tracking — Turn on incremental mode and give the run a state key. Later runs return only the entries that are new or that changed.

→ Only new and changed rows after the first run, each carrying its change type.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://outseo.lol/"
  ],
  "incrementalMode": true,
  "stateKey": "outseo-daily",

Incremental fields

When incremental mode is on, each record also carries:

• changeType — one of NEW, UPDATED, UNCHANGED, REAPPEARED, EXPIRED. Default output covers NEW / UPDATED / REAPPEARED; set emitUnchanged: true or emitExpired: true to opt into the others.
• isRepost, repostOfId, repostDetectedAt — populated when a new listing matches the tracked content of a previously expired one. Set skipReposts: true to drop detected reposts from the output.

How to scrape outseo.lol

1. Go to Outseo in Apify Console.
2. Enter a search keyword.
3. Set maxResults to control how many results you need.
4. Click Start and wait for the run to finish.
5. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Use cases

How much does it cost to scrape outseo.lol?

Outseo uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

• Run start: $0.01 per run
• Per result: $0.005 per site record

Example costs:

• 10 results: $0.06
• 25 results: $0.14
• 100 results: $0.51
• 200 results: $1.01
• 500 results: $2.51

Platform usage is billed on top of these prices. The figures above are Apify event fees only. Compute units and proxy traffic are billed separately by Apify at your actual consumption, and for proxy- or browser-heavy workloads they can exceed the event fees. What you actually pay depends on your own input — how many results you request, whether detail enrichment is on, the run memory you choose, and your proxy settings — so it cannot be stated as a fixed figure here. Every run reports its exact platform usage on the run detail page.

The Actor Start event is charged once per GB of run memory (minimum one), so a run configured with 2 GB is charged two start events rather than one.

Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of sites that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions.

Example setup: 250 sites per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Costs scale linearly with the number of sites.

Churn rate	Full re-scrape run cost	Incremental run cost	Savings vs full re-scrape	Monthly cost after baseline
5% — stable niche query	$1.26	$0.07	$1.19 (94%)	$2.17
15% — moderate broad query	$1.26	$0.20	$1.06 (84%)	$5.93
30% — high-volume aggregator	$1.26	$0.39	$0.88 (69%)	$11.55

Full re-scrape monthly cost at the same cadence: $37.80. First month with incremental costs $3.36 / $6.99 / $12.43 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage (see the note above) also applies to these figures. Incremental runs consume less of it on result processing, though the fixed per-run overhead stays the same.
