Quick overview
Paste a keyword list into a built-in n8n form and get it back triaged: Google Ads Keyword Planner volume, competition and CPC, an AI intent label, a topic cluster and the page type, ranked by opportunity score in a Google Sheet, with the ten best posted to Slack.
How it works
- Submit the built-in n8n form with your keywords, country and language, or run it manually with the demo list.
- One HTTP Request runs the Keyword Search Volume Scraper on Apify for the licensed metrics. Keywords Google has no data for are uncharged.
- An Information Extractor labels each keyword with its intent, a short topic cluster and the page type worth building.
- A Code node scores it:
volume x (1 - competition/100) / CPC, favouring high volume, low competition and cheap clicks, then sorts by that score.
- Remove Duplicates drops keywords already scored for that country, Sheets appends the rest, and the ten best go to Slack.
Setup
- Create an HTTP Header Auth credential (name
Authorization, value Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN) and select it on the HTTP Request node.
- Add a Groq credential on the chat model node - a drop-in swap for OpenAI or Anthropic.
- Connect Google Sheets and Slack, then open the form URL and paste a list.
Requirements
- An Apify account, a chat model account, Google Sheets and Slack.
- Keywords are charged only when Google returns metrics.
Customization
- Reweight the scoring formula in the Code node.
- Set
mode to ideas in Config to expand every seed into new ideas.
