We use <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/adwords\/api\/docs\/guides\/start\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google AdWords API<\/a> as a data source.

We are not able to return data for keywords that fall into such categories as weapons, tobacco, drugs, violence, terrorism, etc. If you want to learn more about Google restrictions and prohibited categories, <a href=\"https:\/\/dataforseo.com\/google-restrictions-explained-why-you-do-not-get-any-search-volume-for-your-queries.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">check the article on our blog.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Generally, Google updates keyword data in the middle of the month. Use the <a href=\"\/v3\/keywords_data\/google\/adwords_status\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Get AdWords Status<\/a> endpoint to check if Google updated keyword data for the previous month.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Methods<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe cost of using Keywords Data endpoints depends on the selected method and priority of task execution. Available methods and priorities are described below.<\/p>\n<p>DataForSEO has two main methods to deliver the results: Standard and Live.<\/p>\n<p>If your system requires delivering instant results, <strong>the Live method<\/strong> is the best solution for you. Unlike the Standard method, this method doesn\u2019t require making separate POST and GET requests to the corresponding endpoints.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t need to receive data in real-time, you can use <strong>the Standard method<\/strong> of data retrieval. This method requires making separate POST and GET requests, but it\u2019s more affordable. Using this method, you can retrieve the results after our system collects them.<\/p>\n<p>\u200cAlternatively, you can specify <code>pingback_url<\/code> or <code>postback_url<\/code> when setting a task, and we will notify you on completion of tasks or send them to you respectively.<\/p>\n<p>If you need to set several tasks, you can receive the list of <code>id<\/code> for all completed tasks using <strong>&#8216;Tasks Ready&#8217; endpoint<\/strong>, and then collect the results of each separate task using &#8216;Task GET&#8217; endpoint.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about task completion and obtaining a list of completed tasks in <a href=\"https:\/\/dataforseo.com\/help-center\/completed-tasks\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">this help center article.<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>You can send up to 2000 API calls per minute. Contact us if you would like to raise the limit.<br \/>\n\u200c&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Cost<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe price depends on the method of data retrieval.
