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

We are no longer actively supporting the SOAP Search API, but you may be able to get your questions answered by other developers in the Google SOAP Search API discussion group.

That's totally up to you and your creative genius. (Keep in mind that this API is not for commercial use, though.) Some possibilities might include: Performing market research by analyzing differences in the amount of information available on different subjects over time.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The Google SOAP Search API service gives you query access to Google's web search, enabling you to develop software that accesses billions of web documents that are constantly refreshed.

Accessible Search is an early Google Labs product designed to identify and prioritize search results that are more easily usable by blind and visually impaired users. Regular Google search helps you find a set of documents that is most relevant to your tasks. Accessible Search goes one step further by helping you find the most accessible pages in that result set.

You can submit your code using our online form. If you have a lot of code to submit, you may want to create a Code Search sitemap, which provides a way to specify all the code files on your site. Please note that we do not add all submitted code to our index, and we cannot make any predictions or guarantees about when or if it will appear.

Google Accessible Search is an experiment, and to be an effective experiment, end-users need to be able to easily compare the results obtained by using regular Google search vs Google Accessible. Notice that the top of the results page contains a pair of radio buttons labeled Web Search and Accessible Search you can easily repeat your search by pressing the appropriate radio button and clicking on the submit button.
