Script para obtener señales sociales para SEO y Social Media
en
En Posicionamiento en Buscadores usamos las RRSS como medio de promoción directa y -de manera indirecta- para hacer linkbaiting.
Por otro lado, sospechamos que las señales sociales son tenidas en cuenta en el algoritmo de Google, y se han elaborado diversos estudios que intentaron establecer un ranking de estas señales SEO y Social Media.
¿Qué vamos a hacer con la API para obtener señales sociales y el script para leer JSON?
En este post, vamos a utilizar una API pública de ALJT MEDIA que facilita las interacciones detectadas en las RRSS con respecto de la URL que le facilites, y que me descubrió mi amigo Daniel Grifol:
@jbmoreno, prueba esto http://t.co/haszpwTsBZ Tu sabeh

Esta API devuelve los resultados en JSON, así que -a continuación- os proporciono un javascript que crea una función para Google SPREADSHEET que lee archivos JSON:

A library for importing JSON feeds into Google spreadsheets. Functions include:
ImportJSON For use by end users to import a JSON feed from a URL
ImportJSONAdvanced For use by script developers to easily extend the functionality of this library
Future enhancements may include:
- Support for a real XPath like syntax similar to ImportXML for the query parameter
- Support for OAuth authenticated APIs
Or feel free to write these and add on to the library yourself!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changelog:
1.1 Added support for the noHeaders option
1.0 Initial release
*====================================================================================================================================*/
/**
* Imports a JSON feed and returns the results to be inserted into a Google Spreadsheet. The JSON feed is flattened to create
* a two-dimensional array. The first row contains the headers, with each column header indicating the path to that data in
* the JSON feed. The remaining rows contain the data.
*
* By default, data gets transformed so it looks more like a normal data import. Specifically:
*
* - Data from parent JSON elements gets inherited to their child elements, so rows representing child elements contain the values
* of the rows representing their parent elements.
* - Values longer than 256 characters get truncated.
* - Headers have slashes converted to spaces, common prefixes removed and the resulting text converted to title case.
*
* To change this behavior, pass in one of these values in the options parameter:
*
* noInherit: Don't inherit values from parent elements
* noTruncate: Don't truncate values
* rawHeaders: Don't prettify headers
* noHeaders: Don't include headers, only the data
* debugLocation: Prepend each value with the row & column it belongs in
*
* For example:
*
* =ImportJSON("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/standardfeeds/most_popular?v=2&alt=json", "/feed/entry/title,/feed/entry/content",
* "noInherit,noTruncate,rawHeaders")
*
* @param {url} the URL to a public JSON feed
* @param {query} a comma-separated lists of paths to import. Any path starting with one of these paths gets imported.
* @param {options} a comma-separated list of options that alter processing of the data
*
* @return a two-dimensional array containing the data, with the first row containing headers

/**
* An advanced version of ImportJSON designed to be easily extended by a script. This version cannot be called from within a
* spreadsheet.
*
* Imports a JSON feed and returns the results to be inserted into a Google Spreadsheet. The JSON feed is flattened to create
* a two-dimensional array. The first row contains the headers, with each column header indicating the path to that data in
* the JSON feed. The remaining rows contain the data.
*
* Use the include and transformation functions to determine what to include in the import and how to transform the data after it is
* imported.
*
* For example:
*
* =ImportJSON("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/standardfeeds/most_popular?v=2&alt=json",
* "/feed/entry",
* function (query, path) { return path.indexOf(query) == 0; },
* function (data, row, column) { data[row][column] = data[row][column].toString().substr(0, 100); } )
*
* In this example, the import function checks to see if the path to the data being imported starts with the query. The transform
* function takes the data and truncates it. For more robust versions of these functions, see the internal code of this library.
*
* @param {url} the URL to a public JSON feed
* @param {query} the query passed to the include function
* @param {options} a comma-separated list of options that may alter processing of the data
* @param {includeFunc} a function with the signature func(query, path, options) that returns true if the data element at the given path
* should be included or false otherwise.
* @param {transformFunc} a function with the signature func(data, row, column, options) where data is a 2-dimensional array of the data
* and row & column are the current row and column being processed. Any return value is ignored. Note that row 0
* contains the headers for the data, so test for row==0 to process headers only.
*
* @return a two-dimensional array containing the data, with the first row containing headers

Con estos mimbres, ya podemos obtener las señales sociales para SEO y Social Media.
¿Cómo se usa la función para obtener las señales sociales?
Primero, tendrás que añadir el script al Editor de Secuencia de Comandos. Una vez lo hagas, ya tienes disponible la función personalizada para usarla. Sencillo.
Ahora sólo tendrás que usar la función como indico aquí:
importjson: esta es la función personalizada
- URL de la API + URL a analizar: usando
concatenate - Cabecera: si quieres que se añada cabecera o no
Ejemplo: =importjson(concatenate("http://api.aljtmedia.com/social/?url=https://jbmoreno.es);"";"Headers") (si no quieres que se añada la cabecera, por noHeaders)
¡Anda, que no dirás que no te lo pongo fácil para obtener señales sociales para SEO y Social Media!.
No sé si te has dado cuenta, pero si juegas con importxml y el sitemap de tu sitio y/o el de tus competidores…tienes mucha información sobre qué, cuándo y cómo lo hace tu competencia en comparación contigo.;)
