This workflow solves that by: Automatically scraping live Google Search results for any keyword. Extracting meaningful topics, related terms, and entities using AI. Enriching your keyword list with semantic intelligence to improve SEO and content planning. Storing structured results directly in n8n Data Tables for trend tracking or export. What this workflow does Here’s a breakdown of the flow: 1. Set the Input Fields – Define your search query and target geo (e.g., “Pizza” in “India”). 2. Decodo Google Search – Fetches organic search results using Decodo’s web scraping API. 3. Return Organic Results – Extracts the list of organic results and passes them downstream. 4. Loop Over Each Result – Iterates through every search result description. 5. Extract Keywords and Topics – Uses OpenAI GPT-4.1-mini to identify relevant keywords, entities, and thematic topics from each snippet. 6. Data Enrichment Logic – Checks whether each result already exists in the n8n Data Table (based on URL). 7. Insert or Skip – If a record doesn’t exist, inserts the extracted data into the table. 8. Store Results – Saves both enriched search data and Decodo’s original response to disk. End Result: A structured and deduplicated dataset containing URLs, keywords, and key topics — ready for SEO tracking or further analytics.
