Examples

Simple Example

Simplest example for a standard query "pizza", returning the Google SERP (Search Engine Results Page) data as JSON.

Getting an API Key

To get a free API Key head over to app.serpwow.com/signup.

Example Response

A snapshot (shortened for brevity) of the JSON response returned is shown below. For details of all of the fields from the Google search results page that are parsed please see the docs.

Searching with a location

Example of a Google query geo-locating the query as if the user were located in New York.

Searching Google Places, Google Videos, Google Images, Google Shopping and Google News

Use the search_type param to search Google Places, Videos, Images and News. See the Search API Parameters Docs for full details of the additional params available for each search type.

Returning results as JSON, HTML and CSV

SerpWow can return data in JSON, HTML and CSV formats using the json, html and csv methods. For CSV results use the csv_fields param (docs) to request specific result fields.

Requesting mobile and tablet results

To request that SerpWow renders the Google search results via a mobile or tablet browser use the device param:

Parsing results

When making a request via the json method an object is returned. You can inspect this dict to iterate, parse and store the results in your app.

Paginating results, returning up to 100 results per page

Use the page and num parameters to paginate through Google search results. The maximum number of results returned per page (controlled by the num param) is 100 (a Google-imposed limitation) for all search_type's apart from Google Places, where the maximum is 20. Here's an example.

Search example with all parameters

Locations API Example

The Locations API allows you to search for SerpWow supported Google search locations. You can supply the full_name returned by the Locations API as the location parameter in a Search API query (see Searching with a location example above) to retrieve search results geo-located to that location.

Account API Example

The Account API allows you to check your current SerpWow usage and billing information.

Batches API

The Batches API allows you to create, update and delete Batches on your SerpWow account (Batches allow you to save up to 15,000 Searches and have SerpWow run them on a schedule).

For more information and extensive code samples please see the Batches API Docs.
