}Features
Get back the complete raw HTML of the Google results page, so you can parse any SERP feature yourself — organic results, snippets, People Also Ask, and more. Nothing is stripped or pre-filtered.
Set the country (US, UK, Germany, France, India) to retrieve results as they appear to searchers in that region. Essential for accurate local rankings and geo-specific SERP analysis.
Choose how many results to fetch — 10, 20, or 50 — to control the depth of the SERP you parse. Pull a single page or several for deeper rank tracking.
Requests clear Google's automated-traffic defenses using production-grade scraping infrastructure, so you reliably get real SERP HTML instead of CAPTCHA pages or blocks.
Search as much as you need without Google's official API rate caps or query quotas. Scale rank tracking and SERP monitoring on your own terms, paying only per call.

console.log(data);Google Search Scraper API for raw SERP HTML
The YepAPI Google Search Scraper API runs a Google search for any query and returns the raw HTML of the results page. Instead of a pre-parsed, locked-down response, you get the full SERP markup and parse exactly the features you need — organic listings, featured snippets, People Also Ask, local packs, and ads. You control the country and result count per request.
This endpoint clears Google's bot detection with production-grade scraping infrastructure, so you get real result pages without CAPTCHAs, and without Google's official API quotas. It's built for rank tracking, SERP feature monitoring, and ad research. For scraping the destination pages those results point to, pair it with the Web Scraping API or Stealth Scraping API.
What is a Google Search API?
A Google Search API lets you run searches programmatically and get back the results, without a browser or manual querying. This scraper-style endpoint returns the raw HTML of the Google results page for a given query, so you can extract whatever SERP elements matter to you — organic rankings, snippets, People Also Ask boxes, local packs, and paid ads. Unlike Google's own restricted search offerings, a SERP scraping API gives you the actual page a real searcher sees, geo-targeted by country, with no per-query quota. Developers use it for rank monitoring, competitive SERP analysis, ad intelligence, and tracking which queries trigger rich results, all powered by clean programmatic access to live search data.
Build your own rank tracker
Run a query for each keyword you track, parse the returned HTML to find your domain's position, and log it over time — that's a rank tracker in a few lines. Set the country to monitor rankings across regions, request up to 50 results for deeper visibility, and parse People Also Ask and featured snippets to map SERP features. Because you receive raw HTML, you decide exactly what to extract, building ad-research tools, local-SEO monitors, and SERP-feature trackers without being limited to a vendor's fixed output schema.
Google Search Scraper API pricing — from $0.02 per call
Each Google search costs $0.02 per call with no monthly minimum and no subscription. SerpApi charges around $0.05 per search, ScrapingBee about $0.075 per call behind a $49/month minimum, and Bright Data's SERP API requires a $500/month minimum. With YepAPI you pay per query only, so rank tracking across hundreds of keywords stays affordable and scales linearly without a contract.
Raw HTML versus pre-parsed results
Many SERP APIs return a fixed JSON schema and decide for you which features are exposed — leaving you stuck when you need a SERP element they don't surface. This endpoint hands you the complete results-page HTML instead, so you parse exactly what you want, including new or niche features, and adapt as Google's layout evolves. It's the flexible choice for teams that want full control over SERP parsing rather than a vendor's predetermined output.
