Is there any API or something to mass scrape People Also Ask from Google? I remember reading somewhere that people could scrape up to 200 with a single request somehow.

I am currently using the People Also Ask Python module but it does 1 request per question which is not optimal at all.
 
Do you just want the questions or the answers too?
 
I use a couple of things for this. The easiest to use is SEO content machine. It can drill down to get all the questions and answers that pop up when you click in the PPA section. I believe it has an api..? It can be automated with cron.

The second software that I use for scraping google ppa is zennoposter. However, you have to make your own parsing template in zennoposter using some solution like css selectors, x path, or regex. You can use JavaScript and other programming languages in zennoposter if you need to. But it doesn’t come with a working solution out of the box for this.

If you have never heard of zennoposter, it’s kind of a drag and drop/point and click solution for automating web tasks. Rarely do you need to know any programming languages to automate any task in a web browser.

I might be late, and you probably have found your answer, but here is a great tool that I use:
  • Minion SEO ( Free Chrome extension)
Keyword Everywhere (Free) also needs to be installed to make it work.

You type your keyword on google, and you'll have the option on the right to scan for PPA.
Basically it will click on the all the PPAs till you stop it. I usually select the longest option (it takes up to 6h) and stop it when I want.

You'll get 1.000+ PPA questions and their answers in a well made csv file with the question but also the answer + the URL.

It's pretty amazing.

There isn't a direct API from Google to access "People Also Ask" results, but there are a couple of ways to achieve this:

Third-party APIs: Services like https://www.serphouse.com that take a search query as input and return various results including "People Also Ask" questions. These are paid services, but they handle the complexities of interacting with Google's search engine and parsing the results.

Here's a quick breakdown:

Free option: SERPHouse provides you with a free trial opportunity with having 100 searches each day (requires coding knowledge)
Paid option: Third-party APIs like SerpApi and SERPHouse (easier to use, but have cost)

Remember, scraping Google Search results might violate their terms of service, so it's important to use these methods responsibly and be aware of the potential risks.
 
This is an old post but check out the extension called SEO PILOT. It grabs the PAA at different page depth levels (to unsurface more).
