Consider the following Python code: 30 url = "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=Monkey" 31 url_object = urllib.request.urlopen(url); 32 print(url_object.read()); When this is run, an Exception is thrown: File "/usr/local/lib/python3.0/urllib/request.py", line 485, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden However, when this is put into a browser, the search returns as expected. What's going on here? How can I overcome this so I can search Google programmatically? Any thoughts? If you want to do

I have come across an interview question "If you were designing a web crawler, how would you avoid getting into infinite loops? " and I am trying to answer it. How does it all begin from the beginning. Say Google started with some hub pages say hundreds of them (How these hub pages were found in the first place is a different sub-question). As Google follows links from a page and so on, does it keep making a hash table to make sure that it doesn't follow the earlier visited pages. What if the same page has 2 names (URLs) say in these days when we have URL shorteners etc.. I have taken Google

Does google offer a way to programmatically see their search engine results for a certain query? I want to build a tracking application so that a user can see what rank on the google results their website is for certain keywords. EDIT: The behavior of the program would be: every day the program queries Google for the desired phrases, sees what position the user's websites are, and emails the users an update of their positions for their phrases. I want to be sure to comply with Google's terms of service too. John After finding this question I have been researching as the other answers seem out

I am trying to add a Google search box to my own website. I would like it to search Google itself, not my site. There was some code I had that use to work, but no longer does: <form method="get" action="https://www.google.com/search"> <input type="text" name="g" size="31" value=""> </form> When I try making a search, it just directs to the Google homepage. Well, actually it directs here: https://www.google.com/webhp Does anyone have a different solution? What am I doing wrong? Sorry for replying on an older question, but I would like to clarify the last question. You use a "get" method for

We are currently using the Microdata format to expose data to search engines and we are looking at exposing more info to be able to support some more advanced Google Search features. As I'm working my way through the fields I'm finding I need information that we currently load asynchronously so it is not a part of the initial response. JSON-LD looks like its what Google prefers but all the examples I've seen have it embedded in the page. Could you have a link to a JS file so it gets loaded as a separate call? Something like <script type="application/ld+json" src="/myid123/jsonld.js"></script>

When I search for some sites like amazon in google , I see the link and description of amazon. Below the main link I also see some smaller links like Books , Music , DVD etc How can we get these links for our own site ? Are these sitemaps ? Those are Google Sitelinks . You can block them by using Google Webmaster Tools, however they are auto-generated, and can only be remove-picked. After Google Webmaster Tools: Sitelinks are links to a site's interior pages. Not all sites have sitelinks. Google generates these links automatically, but you can remove sitelinks you don't want. (...) Sitelinks
