Site SEO Overview (SEO Tracker)

Get an instant SEO health snapshot. Returns the domain's organic keyword distribution, paid keyword distribution, and backlink summary in one call — the fastest way to assess a domain's overall search presence.

---

Related Keywords

Returns up to 10 related keyword suggestions for a single seed keyword — the same keywords Google shows at the bottom of a search results page under "Searches related to…". Each suggestion comes with search volume, competition, CPC, and bid range data, making it useful for expanding a topic cluster or discovering what searchers look for next.

Field	Type	Default	Description

articleTitle	string	(none)	The article title to write. If omitted, the AI generates a title from mainKeyword
articleTitleAdjust	boolean	false	If true and articleTitle is set, AI may adjust it slightly for SEO. If false, title is used exactly as given
mainKeyword	string	(none)	Optional. Primary SEO keyword the article is built around. If omitted, AI writes freely based on the title
mainKeywordImportance	number	1.0	Keyword placement: 1.0 = first paragraph; 0.7 = first two paragraphs; 0.4 = anywhere; below 0.4 = only if natural
mainKeywordAdjustment	boolean	false	If true, AI may use keyword variations and partial matches instead of exact phrase
secondaryKeyword	string	(none)	Lower-importance keyword woven in 1–2 times naturally
returnType	select	JSON	Output format: JSON = structured title/subtitle/content object; HTML = raw HTML; TEXT = plain text

useTags	boolean	true	Use bold, italic, and blockquote formatting in the article
useTable	boolean	false	Include a relevant comparison or data table in the article
articleTone	select	informative	Writing tone for all generated articles. Options: informative, professional, casual, enthusiastic, empathetic, storytelling, humorous, authoritative, conversational
linkText	string	(none)	Anchor text for a link to inject into the article (e.g. organic cotton t-shirts). Requires linkDestination
linkDestination	string	(none)	Link URL — internal path (e.g. /products/organic-tshirt) or full external URL (e.g. https://example.com/page). Requires linkText
articleStrategy	select	mix	Used when articleKeywords and articleTitles are both empty. Seeds from ranked keywords, suggested keyword ideas, or mix of both
articleProductContext	object	(none)	Product details to reference in articles (title, description, price, url, etc.)
shopDomain	string	(none)	Shopify store domain used in article content
shopName	string	(none)	Store display name used in article content

How article ideas work (runArticleIdeas)

Generates up to 30 { title, keyword, strategy } idea objects — headline suggestions and the keyword each targets. These are informational output only; they do not trigger article writing on their own.

Seeds come from one of three sources (in priority order):

1. Manual — articleKeywords and/or articleTitles are provided → ideas based directly on those inputs
2. Auto — both are empty → seeds pulled from ranked keywords / keyword ideas using articleStrategy

How content writing works (runArticles)

Generates a single article. Both articleTitle and mainKeyword are optional — use any combination:

Scenario	Result
articleTitle + mainKeyword	Article written with your exact title, built around your keyword
articleTitle only	Article written with your title; AI writes freely without a keyword constraint
mainKeyword only	AI generates a fitting title from the keyword, article built around it
Neither	AI generates both title and content freely (not recommended)

Title control — articleTitleAdjust:

• false (default) → articleTitle is used exactly as given
• true → AI may tweak the title slightly for better SEO while keeping the intent

Keyword placement — mainKeywordImportance:

• 1.0 → must appear in the very first paragraph
• 0.7 → within the first two paragraphs
• 0.4 → anywhere in the body
• below 0.4 → only if it fits naturally

Inline link injection — linkText + linkDestination:

When both fields are provided, the AI embeds a hyperlink naturally within the article body using your anchor text. This is a powerful SEO technique:

• Internal links (e.g. /products/organic-tshirt, /collections/summer) — pass link juice between your own pages and improve crawlability. Point readers (and search engines) to relevant product or category pages.
• External links (e.g. https://example.com/study) — cite sources or partners to build topical authority and trust signals.

Both fields are required together — supplying only one has no effect.

---

Content Rewrite — Article Rewrite

Refresh existing content with a fully rewritten version. Improve SEO targeting, update tone, and eliminate duplicate phrases — without losing the original topic or intent.

Field	Type	Default	Description
runArticleRewrite	boolean	false	Rewrite an existing article. Requires articleContent
articleContent	string	(required)	The original article body — HTML or plain text. Maximum 1200 characters; anything beyond is automatically stripped
articleTitle	string	(none)	Optional title for the rewritten article. If omitted, the AI generates a title from the content and mainKeyword
articleTitleAdjust	boolean	false	If true and articleTitle is set, AI may adjust it slightly for SEO
mainKeyword	string	(none)	Optional. SEO keyword to target in the rewrite
mainKeywordImportance	number	1.0	Keyword placement: same scale as article generation
mainKeywordAdjustment	boolean	false	Allow keyword variations and partial matches
secondaryKeyword	string	(none)	Lower-importance keyword woven in 1–2 times
returnType	select	JSON	Output format: JSON, HTML, or TEXT
addQA	boolean	false	Append a FAQ section
useTags	boolean	true	Use bold, italic, and blockquote formatting
useTable	boolean	false	Include a comparison or data table
articleTone	select	informative	Writing tone (same options as article generation)
linkText	string	(none)	Anchor text for an inline link to inject
linkDestination	string	(none)	Link URL — internal path or full external URL

How content rewrite works

runArticleRewrite takes your existing content and produces a fully rewritten version — fresh phrasing, new structure, no copied sentences — while preserving the original topic and intent. All SEO controls from article generation apply identically.

Title behaviour:

• articleTitle provided → used as-is (or adjusted for SEO if articleTitleAdjust is true)
• articleTitle omitted → AI generates a title from the rewritten content and mainKeyword

articleContent notes:

• Accepts both HTML (e.g. <p>…</p>) and plain text
• Hard limit of 1200 characters — content beyond that is silently stripped before sending to the AI
• The rewritten output will be 600–1300 visible characters regardless of input length
