Advanced Web Ranking can import projects from CSV files. It can import either from CSV files created by exporting Rank Data from AWR, or files exported by another application.
In the first step of the import wizard, you can choose:
-
the CSV file path
-
the file encoding
-
the separator
-
you can specify if the CSV file contains or not the header on the first line. If the CSV file contains the header on the first line, this will help at the next step, when selecting the columns by name.
-
a character to delimit text data
-
the rank highest position: some start the ranking with 0, others with 1
-
you can import the data into the current project or into a new one.
In order for a CSV file to be importable from AWR it must have the following columns:
-
Search Engine
-
Keywords
-
Website
-
Position
-
Date
-
Page (Optional)
The date format used in the CSV file must be specified in order to have valid dates in your project.
According to the selection from the previous step (input columns - search engine), all the search engines found in the CSV file are listed. These search engines must be synchronized with the AWR search engines, as the CSV file can originate from another application and the names can be different.
According to the selection from the second step (input columns - keywords), all the keywords found in the CSV file are listed. You can select these keywords and change their properties - color, index, priority (just like at Managing Keywords).
According to the selection from the second step (input columns - websites), all the websites found in the CSV file are listed. You can select these websites and change their properties - color, index, stop if found (just like at Managing Websites).
At the final step, you must choose a name for the project. On Finish, the project is created containing the search engines, keywords, websites selected at the previous steps and websites ranking.
