# Deploy and Host SerpBear on Railway

[SerpBear](https://github.com/towfiqi/serpbear) is an open-source search engine position tracking app: it checks where your domains rank for your keywords and emails you about changes.

## About Hosting SerpBear

This template runs the official `towfiqi/serpbear` image with a persistent volume at `/app/data` for the SQLite database. Sign in with the username `admin` and the generated `PASSWORD` variable (see the service Variables tab). To scrape rankings, add a scraper service key (ScrapingAnt, ScrapingRobot, SerpApi and others) under Settings after signing in. `SECRET` and `APIKEY` are generated for you.

## Common Use Cases

- Track keyword rankings for your own sites
- Weekly rank summaries by email
- Optional Google Search Console data

## Dependencies for SerpBear Hosting

- One service with a volume; nothing else

### Deployment Dependencies

- [SerpBear on GitHub](https://github.com/towfiqi/serpbear)
- [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/towfiqi/serpbear)

## Why Deploy SerpBear on Railway?

Railway gives you a public HTTPS URL, a persistent volume and automatic restarts with no server to maintain. The login password is generated for you, so the dashboard is not open to strangers.
