Road to create my own SEO links tool!

Hi everybody!
Here i will post my progress of creating my first SEO tool which will collect related thematically links to blogs, websites - everything what can we find by searching in Google for a given topic.

Initially it will search by entered keywords last added pages where we can put comments to promote our own website/blog. It'll help in white (or grey) hat seo by speeding up this task
After adding the main functionality i'll add more options like filters, other options to search etc.

Ofc it'll use proxy rotation to not get banned for asking Google too many times!

It'll be web application probably created in PHP, MySQL + front end HTML, CSS

In the topic i'll write about my progress of coding the tool, what i did, what i will add Of course if it will go well, i'll try to monetize it!

I think, i'll create the tool in two languages - Polish (my native language) and English (for the whole world ).
First to do:
- create main functionality to displaying searched result as i need on localhost server (xampp):
i am entering the word, it gives me result in title, link, maybe description.

About me: I am 19 years old. I go to the 3rd class of technical school I would like to profesionally program in the future!

Let's see how will it go?

Actually i've done:
- basic function to displaying plain links for given search (for now it displays max 100 links because i need only fresh websites to put comments on)

To-do:
- displaying together: title above the link and description under the link. I think description will help users to check quickly about what is given page and is it a page worth attention

When i'll add some more features, i will add also some screenshoots of what i did!

Done:
- modified the basic function to display links and headers correctly - without anchor to "Images for $keyword" to Google Images
- modified regex for links, headers
To-do:
- add description excerpts for every header.

Sounds cool. Definitely following this one.

I've added descriptions to every link.
Also i've modified code to not display "Images for $keyword" for Polish and English language

For now it's preview only for me. Later i'll code front-end (user side) with HTML, CSS. Also i'm going to add saving the data to database, because i assume that the data will be download every 24hours.

Now i'll modify the code to display articles from newest to older

It will be interesting later to monetize the project, when i will finish all functions of this program Will it be my first real money from Internet project? We'll see.

+ I found a trick how to set in Google Search a date in a given range from-to time and sort it by the date (the newest on top) It works by adding a some code to the address.

I'll think about rewriting the code of main function to keep data in two-dimensional array to better manage it later. Now it's easy to make changes, later it won't be.

Also i note the project functionality in online notes app, to make later work to be easier.

Thank you for the useful information about the SEO tool. It will be very helpful for blogs, website designing etc. It is a very interesting project which is done for Google Research. This description is given step by step with screenshots so it will be easy to understand for different background people. This information is reliable. Awaiting some new features for SEO.

Hello I will surely follow your road to your own success. Thank you for sharing some useful information and good luck to your journey.

Thanks!
Except Google Research i will add more resources to scraping the newest articles/posts etc on selected keywords. But it'll be in the near future Actually i am collecting informations what can i add to resources, how to scrape new resources in a good way. Also i have to change the main function as told to save data in 2dimensional array

It's a long way ahead of me, but this is what i like - challenge

+ I think i'll be able also to scrape twitter tweets to my tool!

Now i am looking for another resources to my tool which i will add - they must have api's to scrape data legally
And i'm creating a basic login/register system (php, mysql, js, html, css) - it's also important element of the tool. It must be safe, what is very important and not so easy to do. User is the most important for me
Later i'll continue creating the tool functions - i'll have to store keywords, settings etc. of every user in a database and display its data (resources with links) for the user on front-end.

I've created basic login template.
It's working correctly, saving users to database, checking whether there is a user with a given login/email etc. It hashes passwords with a strong hash algorithm. Now i have to add few more security elements against bad people
Later interesting will be topic how to settlement of taxes for payments from premium version from around the world ;p More challenges To hear!

Yesterday I coded simple front-end layout in HTML and CSS (layout is based on CSS Grid).
+ I added 104 languages to user settings, because with this i'll be able to base the search on the selected language (for example it will work for Google results - only where is possible to set lang) to focus results in your countries like i am from Poland, my native lang for business is Polish language, so i want to collect Polish sources to put comments, links etc This is the option

To do in the near future:
- code front side to end (for initial appearance),
- work with database, connection for below settings with database (save it, select it when i need to use the settings).


If you know any resources which i could add, because they have official API to collecting data (fresh posts, links etc) - let me know!

+ coded saving the settings to database (insert into if user has no settings, update only if has),
+ improve database organization

Now i have to code "sketch" for results (for now Google results which i've already did) display on a right side of the layout based on the settings (keywords, language)

Best of luck to you on your journey!

ooh this is really cool! Are you aware of SEO PowerSuites linkassistant? does some of what your looking to do and may be worth having a gander at. If you pay for algo updates you dont get banned by google, idk how they manage that but maybe a touch of reverse engineering on the jar file?

Hi. I didn't see the tool before. I know that competition will always be, but my tool will be other than the tools that exists They are more like harvester - much low quality resources (like all search engine - almost everyone use only Google..). It's in my opinion too advanced tool, too many options for this activity, not so intuitive etc.

My tool will use good quality resources (something like Google results, Reddit, Fb, Instagram or Twitter websites) and it will search for fresh results where we will be able to comment and make for example qualitative links, good opinions and whisper marketing

Some days ago i wrote an article to my new blog. I made research on Google results (blogs, tutorials), Facebook (groups) and put on them about 10 comments - thanks to this i made 1000 UU for my blog - there is high potential for SEO We can get good quality links and also promote our products, websites and other. In this my tool will help users

Also i don't know what they are using for this research, but if we want to do it legally, we have to use APIs etc (for example Reddit has API in JSON format and we can legally use reddit for scraping new posts etc). Depends on the site

The price of this tool is also high - my won't be

I invite you to continue tracking my topic and we'll see how it will go

Sounds like scrapebox with Google search operators !? You would just have scrapebox harvest/comment on last X days with search parameters.
Good luck either way

I'll use more resources than Google to display users the newest posts etc on given topic, keywords or niche More quality, less quantity. It'll be more like white/grey seo, not black hat to spamming with comments There's enough harvesters for spamming.

But you know that if you choose the most popular sites you could just use scrapebox with "site:facebook.com + "keyword" " to accomplish what you want to.
Either way keep good luck and curious to see the end result.

Some people doesn't want to pay 100$ for Scrapebox By the way you have right, we have to wait and see the end result of my work And as i know site:URL shows only indexed by Google results, i want to display users fresh tweets, posts, blog articles etc - it's something other than only indexed urls.
