## FAQ

### What traffic data does the website traffic comparison task return?

The website traffic comparison task returns each site's estimated monthly organic traffic, traffic value in USD, six months of traffic history, top pages, top countries and top keywords with position and search volume.

### How do I compare the traffic of my own competitors?

The website traffic comparison task checks amazon.com, ebay.com, walmart.com and etsy.com. Replace them with your competitors' domains or page URLs; all sites land side by side in one table.

### Can I see top keywords for one country?

The website traffic comparison task leaves country empty. Set a two-letter code such as us, gb or de to get top pages and keywords for that market; traffic, value, history and top countries stay worldwide.

### Is this organic or total website traffic?

The website traffic comparison task reports estimated organic search traffic, not paid or direct visits. Use it to compare sites with each other rather than as an exact visit count.

### How is the website traffic comparison task billed?

The website traffic comparison task is billed per traffic report saved, one per domain, plus a tiny start fee per run. Keep maxItems low to cap cost on long lists; current rates are on the Actor's Pricing tab.

### Can I monitor competitor traffic every month?

The website traffic comparison task can run on a monthly schedule and send results to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n or the Apify API, building a traffic history longer than the six months in each report.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/piotrv1001/ahrefs-traffic-scraper.md

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`).
