SERP scraper: pull search results as structured data

SERP Scraper runs a search query and hands back the results page as structured data instead of raw HTML. A SERP is a search engine results page. Use it to see who ranks for a term, or to feed live results into your own tooling.


What it tells you


  • The query that was run, and how many organic results came back.
  • The organic results themselves, each with its position, its title and its link.
  • The "people also ask" questions shown alongside the results.
  • The related searches listed on the page.


What you need to provide


One input: the search query you want run.


What it costs


1 credit per lookup. Live per-product costs are shown on the Billing page in your dashboard.


How to run it


  • In the dashboard: SERP Scraper
  • From your code: POST /v1/search-intent-lookup, then see the Developer Hub at app.1lookup.io/developer-hub.


Good to know


  • Results are point-in-time. A results page is rebuilt for every search, so the same query can return a different set of results and a different order later the same day.
  • One query per call. To track a set of terms, run one lookup per term and store the results yourself so you can compare them over time.
  • The result count tells you when a query came back thin. Check it before assuming something failed on your side.
  • Position on one results page says what ranked for that query at that moment. It is not a measure of a site's overall strength, which is what Domain Authority is for.
