Amazon Search Results & Best Sellers Scraper

Find out exactly where products rank on Amazon — search any keyword and get every result with its position, or pull the ranked top 100 of any Best Sellers category.

Why use this actor

• No account, no login, no API key. Give it a keyword or a category and press Run.
• True rank positions, counted across pages. The first product on page 2 is rank 17, not rank 1 — so you can chart "my product moved from #12 to #19" without stitching pages together yourself.
• Ads separated from real rankings. Paid placements are flagged isSponsored and left out of the organicPosition ladder, so you always know your genuine organic rank rather than a number inflated by ad slots.
• The full Best Sellers top 100, each product with its exact rank, price, star rating and review count.
• Rich rows out of the box: product ID, title, price and currency, rating, review count, image, "Amazon's Choice" / "Best Seller" badges, and a clean product link.
• Built for repeat runs. Schedule it daily or weekly and every row is stamped with the moment it was collected, so rank history builds itself.
• Stable JSON ready for spreadsheets, databases and dashboards — export as JSON, CSV or Excel.

How it works

1. Pick a mode: Search results for keyword rank tracking, or Best Sellers for category charts.
2. Enter your keywords (or paste search links you already use), or the categories you want to watch.
3. The actor opens each results page in order, page after page, and reads every product card on it.
4. Each product becomes one row, numbered continuously across pages so ranks stay comparable between runs.
5. Rows arrive in the dataset as they are collected, and you download them in whatever format you like.

You do not manage scrapers, browsers or blocks — retries and page handling happen automatically, and anything that goes wrong is reported as a clearly labelled row instead of quietly disappearing.

Field	Type	Description

imageUrl	string	Product thumbnail.
productUrl	string	Clean link to the product page.
hasDetail	boolean	true for the products Amazon shows in full on the chart page. Amazon reveals only the first 30 of every 50 ranks in full; the rest arrive with their rank and product ID so the 1–100 ladder has no gaps. Filter on hasDetail: true when you need price and rating on every row.

When something goes wrong

Nothing is ever dropped in silence. A keyword or category that could not be collected produces a labelled row instead:

{
  "_input": "this-category-does-not-exist-xyz",
  "_source": "S1-bestsellers",
  "_scrapedAt": "2026-08-08T05:38:22Z",
  "_error": "parse_no_results",
  "_errorDetail": "HTTP 200 with list markers but 0 items parsed on page 1 — https://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers/zgbs/this-category-does-not-exist-xyz"
}

_error tells you which kind of problem it was: no_results (Amazon genuinely has nothing for that keyword), robot_check or throttled (Amazon declined to serve the page — try Residential proxy or a lower parallelism), parse_no_results (the page loaded but held no products), no_input, not_found, fetch_failed, exception.

Notes and limits

• Use Residential + the marketplace's own country. Amazon shows prices, currency and delivery promises based on where the visitor appears to be. The search samples above were captured without a country-matched location, which is why they show IDR on amazon.com — with Residential + US you get USD. This is also what keeps ad slots and results stable, so it is the default in the input.
• Results per page vary. Amazon serves several layouts and a search page holds roughly 16 to 60 products. Raise maxPages if you need to reach deeper ranks.
• Best Sellers charts are 100 products long, split over two pages, and Amazon shows the first 30 of each 50 in full detail (see hasDetail above). Need price and rating for every one of the 100? Feed the product IDs into the Amazon Product & Best Sellers Rank Scraper below.
• Paid placements move constantly. Which products occupy ad slots differs between visitors and times of day, so position will fluctuate a little more than organicPosition. For rank tracking, compare organicPosition run over run.
• Amazon changes its page layouts often. If a layout change ever breaks collection, the run reports parse_no_results rows rather than returning a silently empty dataset.
• Lower maxConcurrency if runs come back with throttled rows — Amazon limits how quickly one visitor may page through results.
