Google Search Results Scraper

Scrape Google Search results at scale with this Apify Actor. Get organic results, paid ads, paid products, People Also Ask, related queries, and optional AI overview in a structured JSON format matching standard SERP output.

Why Choose Us?

• Proxy fallback: Starts with no proxy; if Google blocks, automatically falls back to datacenter proxy, then residential proxy (with 3 retries). Once residential is used, it sticks for all remaining requests.
• Bulk input: Enter multiple search terms or full Google search URLs (one per line).
• Rich output: Same structure as professional SERP APIs — searchQuery, organicResults, paidResults, paidProducts, peopleAlsoAsk, relatedQueries, aiOverview (with SerpApi key), and more.
• Compact UI: Accordion sections and date pickers (absolute or relative) for a simple, organized input form.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does it say "10 results per page limit"?
Google often returns about 10 organic results per page. Use maxPagesPerQuery to get more (e.g. 10 for ~100 results).

When does the actor use a proxy?
By default it uses no proxy. If Google blocks (e.g. "trouble accessing Google"), it switches to datacenter proxy, then to residential proxy with up to 3 retries, and then keeps using residential for the rest of the run.

Can I use absolute and relative dates?
Yes. The Before date and After date fields support both absolute (YYYY-MM-DD) and relative (e.g. "8 days", "3 months") via the date picker.
