Google Search API — SERP Results, People Also Ask & Related

Turn any Google search into clean JSON in seconds: rank, title, the real destination URL, snippet and date for every organic result, plus the page's People also ask questions and related searches. Any country, any language, desktop or mobile, as many pages as you need. No Google account, no API key, no browser to babysit.

Try it in 1 minute:

1. Press Start. The prefilled input searches Google for "web scraping" and "apify" (US, English, first page).
2. A few seconds later the Output tab lists about 20 results: rank, title, URL, snippet, date, People also ask and related searches.
3. Download JSON, CSV or Excel, call it from the API or from an AI agent, or schedule it to track your rankings every day.

Price: $2.00 per 1,000 results (one result = one organic listing). Proxies are included. Queries that return nothing, captcha pages and errors are free.

Use it to:

• Track where your pages and your competitors' pages rank for hundreds of keywords, per country and device, on a schedule.
• Give an AI agent or a RAG pipeline live Google results with real, clickable URLs.
• Harvest People also ask questions and related searches for content planning and keyword research.
• Compare desktop and mobile results, or results between countries, in one run.
• Build a SERP dataset in a spreadsheet without maintaining a scraper.

Why this one:

• Real URLs. Google now hides result links behind its own redirect links. This Actor returns the page's actual address in url, and says so plainly (urlResolved: false) on the rare result where it could not.
• Pay per result, not per run. No monthly minimum, nothing to pay for empty queries or blocked pages.
• Clean fields. Snippet dates come split out as YYYY-MM-DD, People also ask and related searches as plain lists, and phone numbers and e-mail addresses are removed from snippets.

Input

Field	What it does
queries	Search terms, one per line. Required.
country	Two-letter country code, default us.
language	Two-letter language code, default en.
maxPages	Result pages per query, 1-10 (default 1, about 10 organic results per page).
device	desktop (default) or mobile.
resultsPerPage	10, 20, 50 or 100. Google has often ignored values above 10 since September 2025; the Actor then reads the next pages itself, so use maxPages for more.
googleDomain	The Google host, e.g. google.co.uk (default www.google.com).
includeRelated	Where People also ask, related searches and the total count go: every record (default), the first record of each page, or none.
includeAds	Also deliver Google's text ads, marked isAd: true (default off).
proxyConfiguration	Set automatically; leave it as it is.
maxConcurrency	Queries searched at the same time, 1-10 (default 3).

FAQ

Is this an official API? No. It's an unofficial API that reads Google's public results page and turns it into JSON.

Do I pay anything on top of the price per result? No. Proxies are included, and queries that return nothing, captcha pages and errors are free.

What happens on a captcha? The query gets a free FAILED record whose error says so, and it is not retried: the Actor never solves captchas or works around blocks. It is rare; if it happens, run the query again later.

What if a result's URL can't be resolved? You still get the result, with urlResolved: false, url rebuilt from the address Google displays (or null) and Google's own link in googleUrl. Nothing is dropped.

Why do I get fewer than 10 results on a page, or no People also ask? Google fills some slots with videos, images, news and other features that are not organic listings; the Actor delivers the organic ones with their position among them. People also ask and related searches are there only when Google shows them for that query, country and language.

Does it return ads? Only when Include ads is on; then text ads come with isAd: true and their own position among the ads. Ads appear on these pages only now and then.
