Local Services Ads & Google Verified Scraper

🚀 Local Services Ads & Google Verified Monitor

Monitor Google local-service search results at scale. The Local Services Ads & Google Verified Monitor captures Local Services Ads (LSA), Google Verified / Google Guaranteed badges, local pack rankings, ratings, reviews, phone numbers, and websites for any high-intent local query — built for local SEO agencies, home-services marketers, law firm marketing agencies, and reputation management vendors.

✨ Features

• 🛡️ LSA & Verified Badge Detection — Detects Local Services Ads, Google Guaranteed, and Google Screened badges so you know who Google is currently endorsing in your market.
• 🥇 Local Pack Rankings — Captures the 3-pack with continuous position numbering across paginated SERPs, so you can track rank movement over time.
• ⭐ Ratings & Reviews — Parses star ratings and review counts from both organic and local-pack cards (handles 4.7 (2.9K) and Rated 4.5 out of 5, (1,809) user reviews formats).
• 📞 Contact Info — Extracts phone numbers and websites where Google surfaces them on the SERP card.
• 📑 Multi-Page Pagination — Crawl up to 10 pages of organic results per query with continuous position numbering and a global per-query result cap.
• 🌍 Geo & Device Targeting — Choose country, language, and desktop or mobile device profile to mirror exactly what your customers see.
• 🛰️ Residential Proxy Ready — Defaults to Apify's residential proxy pool to dodge Google's anti-bot defenses.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Enter Search Queries — Provide a list of local-service queries like plumbers in Austin or personal injury lawyer in Miami.
2. Pick Geo & Device — Optionally set the country, language, and device profile. The Actor mirrors what a real searcher in that location sees.
3. Run the Scraper — Start the run. The Actor fetches each Google SERP via Playwright with residential proxies, parses every business surface (LSA, local pack, sponsored, organic), and pushes structured records to the dataset.
