My task involves:

Making something that does the following operation in one click:

Step 1: Go to:
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Step 2: Select Website content and enter URL in the text box

Step 3: Get the text file from google.

I do not want interface to be involved, my main target is file.

Can some one help ?

Hello Sikunj,

If you're looking to write a custom program to perform this
functionality, it's definitely something you can do with the AdWords
API. Take a look at the getKeywordsFromSite() method in particular
after getting familiar with the rest of the standard documentation:

http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/KeywordToolService.html#getKeywordsFromSite

Our sample code section has demos for various languages for using the
KeywordToolService, and should be easily adaptable for the
getKeywordFromSite() method.

I have to implement things in classic ASP.
So I am not sure what should be my steps ?
Can you please elobarate things.

For eg.
my url is : http://vfish.vfishdesigns.net/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=7&idproduct=242
I want txt file on my server from which I can read keywords...

How do I do that ?

Hello Sikunj,

You'll have to write a program to make use of the AdWords API's
methods to retrieve this data. If you're stuck using classic ASP (not
ASP.NET) then you'd have to use a SOAP toolkit to generate the
bindings for our SOAP services, because we don't have a packaged COM
client library for the AdWords API. The relevant WSDL is

https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v12/KeywordToolService?wsdl

Be sure that you familiarize yourself with some general information
about the AdWords API before you start developing, starting with

http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/index.html

You can start developing against the Sandbox environment while you are
testing your code, but keep in mind that results for the
KeywordToolService in the Sandbox environment will be mocked out and
won't match the real results you'd get from the production
environment. See this page for more information about the Sandbox:

http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/adwords_api_sandbox.html

This is what I have thought for the implementation:

1. Find the list of key words from the URL :
Which is done by getKeywordsFromSite('http://
vfish.vfishdesigns.net/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?
idcategory=7&idproduct=242',false,'en','US')
2. For each keyword , we need to find the variation for it
Which is done as :
for each keyword
getKeywordVariations(keyword(i), false ,
'en' ,'US)
next

Is the logic correct ?

Hello Sikunj,

Running getKeywordsFromSite() should give you a list of potential
keywords. You don't necessarily have to call getKeywordVariations() on
each of those potential keywords unless you're specifically looking
for additional keywords that are related to each of the results.

Yes, but if you look at my task it has to specifically find keywords
from my own site and then for each keyword have to find variations.
In that case my logic is perfect , correct ?

Hello Sikunj,

Yes, if that's what you're trying to accomplish then calling
getKeywordsFromSite() and then getKeywordVariations() using the
results would make sense.
