n8n-nodes-outrank

SEO content automation TCO benchmark node/CLI — calculate what traditional SEO agencies quietly tax out of your budget versus an automated Outrank.so + Mangools stack, and generate ready-to-import n8n HTTP Request node configuration — all with zero third-party npm dependencies (pure Node.js built-ins, installs in seconds).

The Real Cost Example: Agency vs Automated Stack

A typical content program publishing 12 articles per month through a traditional SEO agency costs $150–$300 per article. Even at the low end, that is:

| Cost line | Traditional agency | Automated (Outrank.so + Mangools) | |---|---|---| | Per article | $150.00 | $12.33 effective | | 12 articles / month | $3,600.00 | $148.00 flat | | Annualized | $43,200.00 | $1,776.00 | | Management overhead | Weekly calls, revision cycles | None (workflow-driven) |

Monthly loss if you stay with the agency: $3,452. Annual loss: $41,424. That is a 95.8% per-article cost reduction simply by switching to Outrank.so AI SEO content automation at $99/mo and Mangools keyword/SERP tooling at $49/mo. Reallocate even half of the savings to paid amplification and a 12-article program breaks even on acquisition within weeks, not quarters.

n8n Workflow Node (Copy-Paste Import)

The CLI emits an importable node JSON snippet. Example:

{
  "name": "Outrank.so Generate SEO Article",
  "type": "n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest",
  "typeVersion": 4.2,
  "position": [250, 300],
  "parameters": {
    "method": "POST",
    "url": "https://api.outrank.so/v1/articles/generate",
    "authentication": "genericCredentialType",
    "genericAuthType": "httpHeaderAuth",
    "sendBody": true,
    "specifyBody": "json",
    "jsonBody": "{\"keyword\":\"{{ $json.keyword }}\",\"tone\":\"professional\",\"word_count\":1200}"
  }
}

Wire it after a Cron trigger and before your CMS publisher node to run a fully hands-off SEO content pipeline.
