SEO APIs for Non-SEO Expert?

#seo #discuss

Hi Everyone,

I'm a developer who recently dived into SEO to improve my app. I quickly learned that content is king in SEO, but as a newbie, I didn't have the budget to hire experts. Instead, I found some great APIs that help with SEO.

I wrote a blog about my journey and the top 5 APIs I discovered: https://apyhub.com/blog/top-5-apis-improve-seo-game

Would love your feedback and to hear if you've used any of these or have others to recommend.

Thanks!

Sorry, I have noticed an issue with the Readability Scores API

For the below url, I am getting a negative score. It's surprising to see "Extremely difficult to read" :(

Url : dev.to/iamspathan/seo-apis-for-non...

{
  "data": {
    "flesh_kincaid_reading_ease": {
      "score": -640.19,
      "level": 102.8,
      "label": false,
      "class": "Professional",
      "class_label": "Extremely difficult to read. Best understood by university graduates."
    },
    "stats": {
      "paragraphs": 1,
      "sentences": 1,
      "words": 1,
      "characters": 58,
      "reading_time": 0.85,
      "speaking_time": 0.4,
      "avg_word_length": 58,
      "avg_sentence_length": 1,
      "avg_paragraph_length": 1
    }
  }
