Which one is for you

Pick HasData if

  • Fits if you're building a rank tracker or SEO dashboard on Google data only
  • Works for watching which sites Google AI Overviews cite for the queries you pick

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you need Bing, Yahoo or any engine other than Google
  • Tight if you're on Free, with 100 full SERP calls a month at 5 requests at a time
  • Watch out: the plan prices shown are yearly and charged up front, and monthly billing costs about a fifth more
  • Watch out: a SERP call costs 10 credits against 1 for a plain page fetch, so credit totals overstate searches

Pick Scrapingdog if

  • Fits if you need Google results and general page scraping from the same account
  • Works for projects mixing search data with Amazon, YouTube or LinkedIn data

Look elsewhere if

  • Watch out: a full Google search costs 10 credits, so Lite's 200,000 credits is about 20,000 searches
  • Tight if you run out mid-month, as requests are refused until the next billing date, with no pay-per-use
  • Skip it if you want unused credits kept on Lite, as rollover starts at Standard and plan changes aren't prorated
  • Not for you if you want a free plan that renews, as the 100 credits come once

    Worth knowing

    HasData

    • A Google SERP API call costs 10 credits and a Light or Rank Checker call 5, against 1 credit for a plain page fetch.
    • The free plan covers only 100 full SERP calls a month at 5 concurrent requests.
    • The displayed plan prices are for yearly billing, charged up front; monthly billing costs about a fifth more.
    • Failed requests have their credits returned, and plans can be changed or cancelled from the dashboard.

    Scrapingdog

    • A full Google search costs 10 credits and a light one 5, so plan credit counts overstate the number of searches.
    • When credits run out, requests are refused until the next billing date unless you upgrade; there is no pay-per-use overage.
    • Unused credits roll over only from the Standard plan up, and plan changes are not prorated.
    • The pricing page lists a Free plan at $0 but describes the 100 credits as a sign-up allowance, without saying they renew.

    How this page was made

    • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
    • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
    • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
