Easy Google Search Results Scraper

An Apify actor that extracts organic and paid search results from Google SERPs. It's designed for cost-effective, large-scale data collection for SEO analysis, market research, or lead generation.

Key Features

• Cost-Effective: Priced from $0.13 per 1000 results.
• Comprehensive Data: Extracts organic results (title, URL, description, position, sitelinks) and paid ads (title, URL, description, position).
• Flexible Search: Supports custom search queries, country/language targeting (gl, hl parameters), and device emulation (mobile/desktop).
• Pagination: Can automatically scrape multiple pages of results.
• Proxy Support: Uses residential proxies by default to avoid blocks, with configurable retry logic.

How to Use

Run the actor via the Apify Console, API, or scheduler. Configure it using the input settings below.
