I would like to be able to programmatically define a site search engine ranking page for specific keywords. It should scale to several hundred requests per day.
First idea: scraping
Google TOS says: βYou specifically agree not to access (or attempt to access) any of the Services through any automated means (including the use of scripts or web scanners) [...]. So this is not an option ...
Second idea: use a third-party tool
Obviously, there are several sites that can define SERP (for example, Raven / SEOMoz?). There is probably at least one who offers an API for this. BUT: it is very likely to cost quite a bit of money
PS: How the hell do they do it (see idea 1)?
Third idea: use passive SERP
I read that Google Analytics (all sites use it) can be changed to fix the rating - BUT: I do not have permission to change the filter settings for website profiles.
So what to do?
