This tool uses the Google™ Web API do retrieve the data necessary for your reports. Using the Google Web API requires that each individual has their own license key. Google requires this because the key uniquely identifies you to Google. We use it to provide your daily limit of 1,000 free queries. 1,000 queries equates to 10,000 backlinks, 1 query = 10 results.

No, you don't need either a Google Account or a Google Web API license key to use our online Google Position Search. However, you need to have both to use the Offline Google Position Search Tool.

The SOAP Search API was created for developers and researchers interested in using Google Search as a resource in their applications. Depending on your application, the AJAX Search API may be a better choice for you instead. It tends to be better suited for search-based web applications and supports additional features like Video, News, Maps, and Blog search results.

Ensure that your host can make outgoing HTTP requests to akismet.com. (Many hosts block or firewall outgoing connections.)

Map source code generated by MapBuilder require you to have your own Google Maps API key which is available for free from Google. To obtain your very own key please visit http://www.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html. It will be necessary to provide URL of your map script to get Google Maps API key.

Developers can issue search requests to Google's index of billions of web pages and receive results as structured data, access information in the Google cache, and check the spelling of words.

We are no longer issuing new API keys for the SOAP Search API. (Developers with existing SOAP Search API keys will not be affected.) Depending on your application, the AJAX Search API may be a better choice for you instead. It tends to be better suited for search-based web applications and supports additional features like Video, News, Maps, and Blog search results.

Google SOAP Search API is implemented as a web service. The service supports several SOAP methods; these are described in an accompanying WSDL file that can be imported into your favorite web services programming environment. Alternately, you can use our custom Java library to call the service.

By far the easiest solution is to put the map in an "inline frame" using the <IFRAME> tag. This creates a "window" in your page into which you can load another file (more info about IFRAMEs). The advantage of doing this is that the DIVs and margins and styles and whatnot will be completely isolated from the rest of the structure of your page.

Developers write software programs that connect remotely to the Google SOAP Search API service. Communication is performed via SOAP, an XML-based mechanism for exchanging typed information.

No, the API's Terms and Conditions specifically state that you cannot create a commercial service using the Google SOAP Search API service.

The developer's kit includes some example Google client Java code, a .NET programming example, and a WSDL file you can use to generate code if your environment supports it. The developer's kit contains some third-party libraries; your use of these libraries is subject to their terms and conditions. Google has included the licenses for these libraries in the developer's kit download package.

Currently, Office XP's SOAP implementation only supports simple SOAP types. The Google SOAP Search API service uses complex return types and therefore does not work with Office XP.
