FAQ

Common questions

Does Google Trends have an official API? +

No. Google Trends has no official API. The pytrends Python library reverse-engineers the unofficial endpoint and is frequently rate-limited. This scraper handles retries and rate limits automatically.

What data does the scraper return? +

Interest over time (0-100 scale by week or month), interest by region (country and subregion breakdown), related queries (top and rising), and related topics. All as structured JSON.

Can I compare multiple keywords? +

Yes. Google Trends supports up to 5 keywords in a single comparison. The scraper returns normalized values so all keywords are on the same 0-100 scale relative to the highest-interest keyword.

How far back does the historical data go? +

Google Trends data goes back to January 2004. Date resolution changes based on range: daily for ranges under 90 days, weekly for 90 days to 5 years, monthly for 5+ years.

Is this a pytrends alternative? +

Yes. pytrends hits the same unofficial API and gets rate-limited easily. This scraper uses residential proxies and automatic retry logic to handle rate limits without manual intervention.
