Keyword Monitor

Keyword Monitor is a web application built with Laravel framework. It allows users to track the position of their website for specific keywords on search engines like Google. The application provides features such as:

Features

• Keyword management: Add, edit, and delete keywords to track.
• Search engine selection: Choose the service to track (e.g., google.selenium, tools.seo.ai).
• Position tracking: Monitor the position of your website for each keyword on the selected search engine.
• Reporting: Generate reports to analyze the performance of your keywords over time.
• User authentication: Secure access to the application with user registration and login.

Technologies Used

• Laravel 11.9 as the backend framework
• Vue.js 3 with Inertia.js for the frontend
• Tailwind CSS for styling
• Configuration files for Vite, Tailwind, and PHPUnit

Installation

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/yasinkuyu/keyword-monitor.git
2. Navigate to the project directory: cd keyword-monitor
3. Install dependencies: composer install and npm install
4. Copy the environment file: cp .env.example .env
5. Generate an application key: php artisan key:generate
6. Configure your database credentials in the .env file
7. Run database migrations: php artisan migrate
8. Start the development server: php artisan serve && npm run dev

Task Schedule

* * * * * /opt/homebrew/Cellar/php/8.3.6/bin/php /DEV/KeywordMonitor/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

This cron job runs the schedule:run command every minute. This command will run any scheduled tasks that are defined in the App\Console\Kernel class. The >> /dev/null 2>&1 part of the command redirects the output of the command to the /dev/null file, which is a special file that discards all data written to it. This prevents the output of the command from being displayed in the terminal. If you encounter any router issues, run the php artisan ziggy:generate command.

Usage

1. Register a new account or log in with your existing credentials
2. Add keywords you want to track
3. Select the search engine for tracking
4. Monitor the position of your website for the added keywords
5. Generate reports to analyze the performance over time

Demo Data

php artisan migrate:rollback && php artisan migrate && php artisan db:seed

Demo data usage instructions:

1. You can restore, recreate, and add demo data to the database by running the above command.
2. These commands will delete all existing data in your database. So use them carefully.
3. Demo data can be used to test certain features of your application.
