Model Context Protocol server

Give your AI assistant real SEO data.

Your assistant can already write the fix. It cannot see your Search Console history, and it is guessing at search volumes. TrafficBud's MCP server hands it eleven read-only tools backed by live Google data — so the advice it gives you is grounded in what your site actually ranks for.

Three pages are sitting just off page one:

/guides/onboarding   position 12.4 · 2,140 impressions
  Ranking for "employee onboarding checklist" but the
  title doesn't contain the phrase. Rewrite it and you
  should pick up roughly 90 clicks a month.

/pricing             position 11.8 · 1,610 impressions
  Click-through is 0.4% against an expected 2.9% at
  this position. The meta description is missing.

Your assistant is guessing. This is how it stops.

AI coding assistants are good at writing the fix and bad at knowing which fix is worth writing. They cannot see your Search Console, they have no access to Google's keyword data, and when asked about search volume they will produce a confident number from nowhere. TrafficBud closes that gap with real data from accounts you already own.

Real search volumes, not guesses

Keyword Planner data straight from the Google Ads API — monthly searches, competition and bid ranges. When your assistant recommends a phrase, it is a phrase people actually search for.

Sixteen months of your own history

Weekly average position and impressions for every page, pulled from your verified Search Console property. Your assistant can see whether a page is climbing or sliding before it suggests changing anything.

Read-only, by design

Eleven tools, none of which can write. TrafficBud reads your pages and your Google data and reports back. It cannot edit, publish or delete anything on your site, and neither can your assistant through it.

No dashboard, no context switch

Stay in the editor. Ask for an audit in the same conversation where you are writing the code, and apply the fix without ever opening a browser tab.

Connected in about a minute

TrafficBud hosts the server, so there is no package to install and nothing to keep updated. When we add a tool, it appears in your assistant on the next call.

  1. Create a free account

    No card required. Sign up, then open API keys from your dashboard and create one.

  2. Add one line to your assistant

    In Claude Code:

    claude mcp add --transport http trafficbud https://www.trafficbud.io/mcp \ --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"

    In Claude Desktop, Cursor or any other MCP client, add this to your configuration file:

    { "mcpServers": { "trafficbud": { "type": "http", "url": "https://www.trafficbud.io/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY" } } } }
  3. Ask

    “Audit my homepage with TrafficBud.” That is the whole interface.

The eleven tools

Five work on the free plan, within the same three-audits-a-month allowance as the dashboard. The rest need a paid plan, because they run on Google credentials and data that cost us money to hold.

Questions

What is an MCP server?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets an AI assistant use outside tools. Installing TrafficBud's MCP server means Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and other MCP clients can run TrafficBud audits directly, without you opening a dashboard.

Do I need to install anything?

No. TrafficBud runs the server, so there is nothing to download, no package to keep updated and no Node or Python environment to manage. You add one line of configuration containing your API key.

Is it free?

The audits, sitemap check, mobile check, spelling check and schema generator work on the free plan, within the same three-audits-a-month allowance as the dashboard. Keyword Planner data, Search Console history and the agent task file need a paid plan from $29 a month.

Can my assistant change my website?

No. Every tool is read-only by design. TrafficBud can read your pages and your Google data and tell your assistant what to fix, but it has no ability to edit, publish or delete anything.

Why not just ask my assistant to check the page itself?

It can fetch a page and spot an obvious missing meta description. What it cannot do is tell you that a page sat at position 58 for three months, or that a phrase you are considering gets 12,000 searches a month. That data comes from Google accounts you have connected, and TrafficBud is what connects them.

Which assistants work with it?

Anything that speaks the Model Context Protocol over HTTP. That includes Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and a growing list of other clients.
