The SEO landscape is dynamic and full of surprises. You never know if the next algorithm update will push your website to the top of the SERP results or if you'll see a decrease in your SEO metrics. So, implementing an efficient SEO monitoring system is a must for those who want to stay in the lead.
Žydrūnas Tamašauskas, Head of Product Development at Oxylabs, knows precisely how critical SEO monitoring is for business growth. That's why, in the latest Scraping Experts video lesson, he discusses the topic of how to monitor SEO performance by building a custom and cost-effective system.
SEO monitoring is certainly not one of those one-off tasks that you can complete quickly. It's the process of tracking your key SEO metrics over time and calibrating your website accordingly. While keeping up with constant fluctuations might be demanding, the insights you gain are undoubtedly rewarding.
That's exactly what Žydrūnas discusses in his lesson, as he lists the main benefits of using an SEO monitoring system. He also delves into the challenges you might face during its implementation and what you can do to meet them head-on.
Anyone working with business operations knows how much trouble you need to go through until you get the ingredients of your processes just right. Using a ready-made SEO solution can do wonders at the cost of limited customization. It might cross your mind to build a monitoring system yourself, and, in fact, it may be the best approach in your case. Although, such an adventure can bring about added difficulties as it involves scraping SEO data from publicly-available sources, which you may already know is a hassle. From the right tools to the perfect workflow – Žydrūnas explores all these and more.
He offers his expertise on a reliable and effective SEO monitoring architecture and explains why Python, Celery, and SERP Scraper API (a part of Web Scraper API) are best suited for building one. In addition, he walks you through a polished code sample that successfully delivers SERP data scraping results to demonstrate how an SEO monitoring solution operates. Be sure to check it out and pick up some exclusive tips and tricks!
As mentioned at the beginning of this blog post, it can be pretty challenging to meet the ever-shifting demands of SEO. However, the latest Scraping Experts lesson has got you covered. You can rest assured that Žydrūnas' expertise will inspire you to revitalize your SEO strategy and help your business thrive.

It’s the process of continuously tracking the performance of a website or the entire brand in search engine results pages (SERPs) for data-driven analysis and improvements. The goal of this process is to achieve better search engine visibility and organic traffic by monitoring a variety of metrics, such as SERP rankings, keyword strategies and performance, website traffic flow, bounce rate, click-through rate, conversion rate, competitor performance, and other metrics that influence the website’s performance in the SEO landscape.
SEO data analysis can help businesses develop or refine their content and keyword strategies, improve overall performance and optimize websites, discover new opportunities, and gain a competitive edge in the market.
Thankfully, there are many SEO tools you can employ to monitor SEO metrics and progress. Yet, it all depends on your needs and preferences. The most popular ones include Ahrefs, SEMrush, Moz, Google Analytics, and many other tools that track crucial SEO metrics.
Additionally, you can also build your own tool to monitor SEO metrics with Oxylabs’ Web Scraper API. A custom solution brings better customization and flexibility to the monitoring process and enables you to suit it according to your data needs.
