SEOstats is the open source PHP library to get SEO-relevant website metrics.
SEOstats is used to gather metrics such as detailed searchindex & backlink data, keyword & traffic statistics, website trends, page authority, social visibility, Google Pagerank, Alexa Trafficrank and more.
It offers over 50 different methods to fetch data from sources like Alexa, Google, Mozscape (by Moz - f.k.a. Seomoz), SEMRush, Open-Site-Explorer, Sistrix, Facebook or Twitter.
A variety of (private as well as enterprise) SEO tools have been built using SEOstats.
SEOstats requires PHP version 5.3 or greater and the PHP5-CURL and PHP5-JSON extensions.
The recommended way to install SEOstats is through composer.
To install SEOstats, just create the following composer.json file
{
"require": {
"seostats/seostats": "dev-master"
}
}
and run the php composer.phar install (Windows: composer install) command in path of the composer.json.
If you haven't installed composer yet, here's the easiest way to do so:
# Download the composer installer and execute it with PHP:
user@host:~/> curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
# Copy composer.phar to where your local executables live:
user@host:~/> mv /path/given/by/composer-installer/composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer.phar
# Alternatively: For ease of use, you can add an alias to your bash profile:
# (Note, you need to re-login your terminal for the change to take effect.)
user@host:~/> echo 'alias composer="php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar"' >> ~/.profile
If you have installed composer, follow these steps to install SEOstats: ``` # Create a new directory and cd into it: user@host:~/> mkdir /path/to/seostats && cd /path/to/seostats
user@host:/path/to/seostats> echo '{"require":{"seostats/seostats":"dev-master"}}' > composer.json
user@host:/path/to/seostats> composer install Loading composer repositories with package information Installing dependencies (including require-dev)

#### Use SEOstats without composer
If composer is no option for you, you can still just download the [`SEOstats.zip`](https://github.com/eyecatchup/SEOstats/archive/master.zip) file of the current master branch (version 2.5.2) and extract it. However, currently [there is an issues with autoloading](https://github.com/eyecatchup/SEOstats/issues/49) and you need to follow the instructions in the comments in the example files in order to use SEOstats (or download zip for the development version of SEOstats (2.5.3) [here](https://github.com/eyecatchup/SEOstats/archive/dev-253.zip)).

### Configuration
There're two configuration files to note:
<ol>
<li>`./SEOstats/Config/ApiKeys.php`<br>
<em>Client API Keys (currently required for Mozscape and Google's Pagespeed Service only).</em>
</li>
<li>`./SEOstats/Config/DefaultSettings.php`<br>
<em>Some default settings for querying data (mainly locale related stuff).</em>
</li>
</ol>

### Brief Example of Use
To use the SEOstats methods, you must include one of the Autoloader classes first (For composer installs: `./vendor/autoload.php`; for zip download: `./SEOstats/bootstrap.php`).
Now, you can create a new SEOstats instance an bind any URL to the instance for further use with any child class.
```php
<?php
// Depending on how you installed SEOstats
#require_once __DIR__ . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'SEOstats' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'bootstrap.php';
require_once __DIR__ . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'vendor' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'autoload.php';
use \SEOstats\Services as SEOstats;
try {
$url = 'http://www.google.com/';
// Create a new SEOstats instance.
$seostats = new \SEOstats\SEOstats;
// Bind the URL to the current SEOstats instance.
if ($seostats->setUrl($url)) {
echo SEOstats\Alexa::getGlobalRank();
echo SEOstats\Google::getPageRank();
}
}
catch (SEOstatsException $e) {
die($e->getMessage());
}
Alternatively, you can call all methods statically passing the URL to the methods directly.
<?php
// Depending on how you installed SEOstats
#require_once __DIR__ . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'SEOstats' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'bootstrap.php';
require_once __DIR__ . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'vendor' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'autoload.php';
try {
$url = 'http://www.google.com/';
// Get the Google Toolbar Pagerank for the given URL.
echo \SEOstats\Services\Google::getPageRank($url);
}
catch (SEOstatsException $e) {
die($e->getMessage());
}More detailed examples can be found in the ./example directory.
