We emulate set location and search engine with the highest accuracy so that the results you receive will match the actual search results for the specified parameters at the time of task setting. You can always check the returned results accessing the <code>check_url<\/code> in the Incognito mode to make sure the received data is entirely relevant. Note that user preferences, search history, and other personalized search factors are ignored by our system and thus would not be reflected in the returned SERP results.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> direct URLs of the results are not provided by default due to Baidu restrictions. Specify <code>get_website_url<\/code> as <code>true<\/code> to obtain the direct URL for each search result. In this case the charge per task will be <strong>multiplied by 10<\/strong> as our system runs a separate request for each ranked website to return its direct URL.<\/p>\n<p>You can indicate the following device and OS types that you would like to receive SERP results for when setting a task:<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 28px;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mobile<\/strong>. Available OS types: iOS, Android;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Desktop<\/strong>. Available OS types: Windows, macOS.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>SERP API makes use of <code>rank_group<\/code> and <code>rank_absolute<\/code> parameters that show search engine result\u2019s position among the group of elements or across all the elements in SERP respectively.

This endpoint will also supply you with extra SERP elements, such as <code>images<\/code>, <code>local_pack<\/code>, <code>map<\/code>, <code>related_searches<\/code>, <code>video<\/code>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The HTML function<\/strong> in Baidu SERP API arovides a raw SERP HTML page for the specified keyword, search engine, and location.<br \/>\n\u200c<\/p>\n<h3>Methods<\/h3>\n<p>The cost of using Baidu SERP API endpoints depends on the selected method and priority of task execution. Available methods and priorities are described below.<\/p>\n<p>Baidu SERP API supports only <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 the results to you respectively. Note that if you use the <code>postback_url<\/code> field, you should also indicate the function that will be applied for data retrieval: <code>regular<\/code>, <code>advanced<\/code>, or <code>html<\/code>.<\/p>\n<p>If you use the Standard method without specifying <code>pingback_url<\/code> or <code>postback_url<\/code>, you can receive the list of id for all completed tasks using the <strong>&#8216;Tasks Ready&#8217;<\/strong> endpoint. It is designed to provide you with the list of completed tasks, which haven&#8217;t been collected yet. Then, you can retrieve the results using the <strong>\u2018Task GET\u2019<\/strong> 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\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this help center article.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can send up to 2000 POST and GET API calls per minute in total, with each POST call containing no more than 100 tasks.

Normal priority;<br \/>\n2. High priority.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> there are several paid parameters that increase the cost of the task:<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 55%; margin-left: 30px;\">\n<ul>\n<li><code>get_website_url<\/code><\/li>\n<li><code>depth<\/code> value above 10<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you use paid parameters, the final cost of the task for the selected method and priority will be multiplied by the product of prices of all paid parameters you used. In short, the final cost of the task is calculated based on the formula below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 28px;\"><strong>cost= B * G * (D\/10)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 28px;\">B=base price of the selected method and priority<br \/>\nG=10, if <code>\"get_website_url\": true<\/code><br \/>\nD=<code>depth<\/code> value rounded up to the next hundred<\/p>\n<p>The cost can be calculated on the <a title=\"Pricing\" href=\"https:\/\/dataforseo.com\/pricing\/serp\/baidu-organic-serp-api\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pricing<\/a> page.
