Domain Analysis API
Get full domain insights. Explore organic and paid keyword stats, traffic estimates, and more.
Let Claude analyze any domain on real data
Hand Claude or another AI assistant a domain and ask it to run an analysis. SE Ranking’s MCP works with the Domain Analysis API in the background, giving you organic and paid keyword portfolios, traffic and cost estimates, competitor gaps, and more without a line of request code.
Reach every layer through one connection
Claude queries the endpoints directly: keyword rankings, traffic and cost estimates, organic and paid competitors, ad copy, and LLM presence across AI engines.
Benchmark domains on the spot
Ask which keywords a rival ranks for that you don't, and the assistant pulls the gap in the flow of the conversation.
Less work than a direct integration
Pulling organic, paid, and AI data through the API takes auth, pagination, and parsing to stitch together. MCP hands the assistant those calls, so you get the joined-up view without the build.

Can I filter by country, keyword type, or CPC?
Yes, you can filter by all those and more. Use our Domain Data API to target specific countries with Alpha-2 country codes across 188 regional databases. Filter keywords by characteristics like word count, search intent, and length, and set CPC ranges, competition levels, search volume, and ranking positions. Use advanced text search with “contains,” “begins,”, “ends,” or “exact” match logic.
Does the Domain Analysis API support competitor comparisons?
Yes, it does. Compare any two domains side-by-side using domain comparison endpoints to see which keywords you both target, find ranking gaps, compare traffic differences and Keyword Effectiveness Indices, and more. Get detailed metrics for both domains, including positions, traffic estimates, cost values, and ranking URLs.
Can I track changes in search traffic and keyword positions over time?
Yes, here’s how. Track historical changes using the history endpoint by entering the domain and the dates. Then, use the pos_change filter within the domain keywords endpoint to see which keyword rankings moved up, down, are new, or dropped since the last data collection. Plus, set filter[traffic][from] and filter[traffic][to] to prioritize keywords that drive specific traffic volumes.
Can I extract ad creatives or PPC data?
Yes, you can extract comprehensive PPC data including actual ad copy, title texts, displayed URLs, ad landing pages, and ad positions. The Domain Data API provides cost estimates, competition scores, CPC data, shows precise SERP positions where ads appear (like position 1, 2, etc.), and more. Plus, set type="adv" to filter out everything but paid search to focus purely on ad performance data.
