❓ FAQ

🔍 How does it work? The actor connects to SimilarWeb using residential proxies, collects traffic analytics for each domain you provide, and returns the results in your preferred format.

📊 How accurate is the data? SimilarWeb's estimates are based on their panel of millions of users and web traffic data. Most metrics are estimates with margins of error. Global and category rankings are generally more reliable than traffic volume estimates.

📅 Can I schedule runs automatically? Yes. Set up recurring runs using Apify's scheduler or integrate with Make, Zapier, or other automation tools to run on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule.

⚖️ Is it legal to collect SimilarWeb data? SimilarWeb publishes this data publicly on their website. However, review their terms of service regarding data usage. You are responsible for ensuring your usage complies with applicable laws and SimilarWeb's terms.

🛡️ Will SimilarWeb block me? SimilarWeb actively blocks scrapers, which is why residential proxies are required and included by default. Our actor uses proper headers and rotation to minimize blocking risk.

⚡ How long does a run take? For 100 domains with residential proxies, expect 2-5 minutes depending on SimilarWeb's response times and proxy availability. Each domain takes roughly 1-3 seconds.

⚠️ Are there any limits? Free users can collect up to 100 domains per run. Paid users can collect up to 1,000,000 domains per run.
