### Run it from your agent with your own key

This page gives you 3 lookups a day. With a free account and your own DataForSEO key, your agent reads the same results for every page you plan, counts the title words and drafts titles from them next to the queries your page already gets in Search Console.

1.  Sign in with Google on your account page. That creates the free account.
2.  Save your DataForSEO or Ahrefs key in the Keys tab. The provider bills you directly.
3.  Connect the hosted MCP to your agent and ask it which words the ranking titles share.

## Read the word counts

Each row is a word, with the number of ranking titles that use it and its share of all the titles read. A title counts once per word, however often it repeats it. Common words such as the, for and how are hidden by default. Untick the box to see them, because a question word like "how" can say a lot about what the searcher wants.

| Column | What it tells you |
| --- | --- |
| Titles | How many ranking titles contain the word at least once. |
| Share | Those titles as a share of every title read. |
| Phrases | Two-word phrases that appear in at least two titles. |

## Write a title from the shared words

Start with the words that appear in most titles. They tell you what the searcher expects to see, such as "guide", "cost" or a year. Then add one thing the other titles do not say, so yours stands out in the list (a test you ran, a number, a narrower audience). Words in only one title tell you about that one site, not the results page.

Keep the result under about 600 pixels so Google does not cut it. The [title tag and meta description checker](https://seoskill.dev/tools/title-and-meta-description-checker) measures a finished title on desktop and mobile.

## What the counts cannot tell you

A shared word is a pattern, not a ranking factor. Pages rank for what they contain and who links to them, and the title is a small part of that. Results also move by country and through the day, so check again before you rewrite a title that already gets clicks. To see the full results page with each site's Domain Rating, use the [SERP checker](https://seoskill.dev/tools/serp-checker).

## Draft titles with your AI agent

With SEO Skill your agent can read the live results with [seo research](https://seoskill.dev/docs/research) and your own DataForSEO key, count the shared words, and draft titles next to the queries your page already gets in Search Console. Ask:

```
Read the top 50 Google titles for my main keyword on example.com/guide, count the words they share, and draft three titles that use them
```

Add the hosted MCP server to your agent and sign in with Google:

Run it in a terminal, then sign in with Google.

Or run it on your machine

Installs the CLI, signs you in and adds the skill to your agents. Site crawls and Bing data run this way, on your own machine. A crawl fetches many pages, and Bing blocks our hosted server.
