Naver (Hangul: 네이버) is a South Korean online platform operated by the Naver Corporation. It debuted in 1999 as the first web portal in South Korea to develop and use its own search engine.

Today we will have a quick walkthrough using SerpApi to extract Naver web organic results.

SerpApi supports multiple search types for the Naver search engine, you can select the suitable one for you.

Where - The parameter

The where Parameter is the parameter responsible for the search type :

Naver_where_parameter

When where parameter is set to web only organic results will be parsed, without any inline videos or inline images, or news results.

where parameter is set to web in Naver search API

The JSON result, in the case of using where=web , will be a set of arrays and hashes, as presented

{
	"search_metadata": { … },
	"search_parameters": { … },
	"related_results": [ … ],

Pagination

The Naver web results have the pagination parameter, as in the other Naver searches.

start This parameter controls the offset of the organic results. This parameter defaults to 1 (except for the web).
(e.g. The formula for all searches except the web is start = (page number * 10) - 9
e.g. Page number 3 (3 * 10) - 9 = 21)
The formula for the web will be start = (page number * 15) - 29
e.g. Page number 3 (3 * 15) - 29 = 16.

page The page parameter does the start parameter math for you! Just define the page number you want. Pagination starts from 1.

num Parameter defines the maximum number of results to return. 50 (default) returns 50 results. The maximum number of results to return is 100.
The parameter can only be used with Naver Images API.
