# UK Local Service Keywords: Search Volume and CPC in GBP

**Use case:** 

Get the monthly Google search volume, cost per click in GBP and advertiser competition for 20 local service keywords in the United Kingdom, from emergency plumber to tree surgeon. A keyword without data shows empty numbers, never 0. Replace the list with your own trade and town keywords, up to 10,000 a run.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Google Keyword Search Volume API: 7 Countries + Global](https://apify.com/quarrywise/keyword-search-volume-api.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/quarrywise/keyword-search-volume-api.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/quarrywise/keyword-search-volume-api.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
