Google Search Results Scraper

Google Search Results Scraper crawls Google Search Results Pages (SERPs) and extracts data from those web pages at scale. Specifically designed to bypass Google's removal of the &num=100 parameter, this scraper seamlessly navigates through multiple pagination pages (up to 100+ pages) to merge and deliver thousands of results in a single, clean dataset.

With this SERP scraper API, you can:

• Extract almost any Google organic data from each search page.
• Bypass the 10-result limit: Intelligently harvests pages 2-100+ automatically.

• Find prices and related entities: Use the descriptive snippets for large-scale analysis.
• Export data in multiple formats: JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML.
• Export via SDKs (Python & Node.js), use API Endpoints, webhooks, or integrate directly with workflows.

How to use Google Search Results Scraper

Google Search Results Scraper is designed with users in mind, even those who have never extracted data from the web before. Using it takes just a few steps:

1. Create a free Apify account using your email.
2. Open Google Search Results Scraper.
3. Add one or more search queries.
4. Click the “Start” button and wait for the data to be extracted.
5. Download your data in JSON, XML, CSV, Excel, or HTML.

How to adapt your queries

To get a larger number of results, simply increase the number of pages you want to scrape. For example, to get approximately 150 results, you need to set maxPages to 15. The Actor will then navigate through 15 pages for your query, collecting ~10 results from each.

Please note that your results will be determined by the country you select, as well as the proxy IP address location and browser fingerprint.

How much will scraping Google Search cost you?

This scraper uses a pay-per-event (PPE) pricing model. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage (compute units), but only a fixed price for specific events:

• $1.00 per 1,000 results scraped ($0.001 per result row).

On the Apify Free plan, you get $5 worth of credit, which lets you scrape over 5,000 Google Search results completely free!

⬇️ Input

The scraper lets you control what kind of Google Search data you can extract. You can specify the following settings:

• Query phrases: The exact search terms you want to run. You can add as many search terms as you want.
• Country/search domain (gl): Geolocation parameter to target specific regional results.
• Language of search (hl): The interface language for the search.
• Max Pages: Determine how deep into the pagination the scraper should go.
• Recency filter (tbs): Filter results by the past hour, 24 hours, week, month, or year.

Can I use Google Search Results Scraper with the Apify API?

The Apify API gives you programmatic access to the Apify platform. The API is organized around RESTful HTTP endpoints that enable you to manage, schedule, and run Apify Actors. The API also lets you access any datasets, monitor Actor performance, fetch results, create and update versions, and more.

To access the API using Node.js, use the apify-client NPM package. To access the API using Python, use the apify-client PyPI package.

Is it legal to scrape Google Search data?

Web scraping is legal if you are extracting publicly available data, which is most data on Google Search. However, you should respect boundaries such as personal data and intellectual property regulations. You should only scrape personal data if you have a legitimate reason to do so, and you should also factor in Google's Terms of Use.

🛡️ Anti-Bot & Proxies

Because Google strictly blocks automated traffic, this Actor automatically utilizes Apify Residential Proxies. Datacenter proxies are highly discouraged as they will almost certainly result in blocked requests (429 errors or CAPTCHAs). The residential proxy rotation is handled completely automatically for you.
