## Pricing

from $10.00 / 1,000 results

Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### What does Seobility Rank Tracker do?

**Seobility Rank Tracker** monitors your website's keyword rankings in Google using the [Seobility](https://www.seobility.net/) platform. Enter your domain and a list of keywords — get back the current Google position for each keyword, with no rank-tracking subscription needed.

This Actor runs on the [Apify platform](https://apify.com). Schedule weekly or daily ranking checks to track SEO progress over time.

### Why use Seobility Rank Tracker?

- **No subscription needed** — check rankings on demand, pay only for what you use
- **Batch tracking** — check rankings for multiple keywords and domains at once
- **Position history** — schedule runs to build a rank-change timeline
- **Competitor tracking** — monitor any domain, not just your own
- **Alerts-ready** — connect to webhooks to trigger alerts when rankings drop

### Tips

- Schedule this Actor weekly to build a ranking history dataset

- Set up an Apify webhook to notify you via email or Slack when rankings drop below a threshold

### FAQ

**Does this require a Seobility account?**
No. The Actor uses Seobility's public rank checker.

**How accurate are the rankings?**
Positions reflect Seobility's crawl results, which are typically within 1–2 positions of actual Google results.

**Can I check rankings for multiple domains at once?**
Run the Actor multiple times with different `domain` values, or contact support for bulk domain support.

**Is this Actor maintained?**
Yes. Report bugs or feature requests in the Issues tab.

echo '{
  "queries": [
    {
      "search_term": "youtube scraper",
      "search_engine": "Google.com",
      "device": "desktop",
      "website": "https://apify.com/"
    }
  ]
}' |
apify call maged120/seobility-ranking --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,maged120/seobility-ranking"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
