FAQ

How many results does each domain return? Each domain produces one dataset row containing six sections. Section sizes vary — domainStats returns monthly records going back years (50–100+ entries), competitorHistory returns time-series for each competitor, competitors and backlinks typically return 5–50 records, adHistory returns 20–100 ads, and topPages returns up to 50 pages.

What country data is available? SpyFu supports 32 country datasets. Select the desired country from the dropdown in the input schema. Default is US.

Does this work on the free tier? Yes. Free tier allows 5 lifetime runs with up to 5 domains per run. Each subsequent run after the free limit requires credits.

Is the data fresh? Data reflects SpyFu's latest available crawl. Historical metrics (domainStats) go back several years where SpyFu has coverage.

What happens if a section fails? Failed sections are recorded in the errors field of the output row. The actor continues processing remaining sections and other domains.
