display google image search results on a website? Let's say I have a topic "Bulldogs" and after a description of bulldogs, i want to list the first 10 images from google for Bulldog and the images embed directly showing the pics on my site, then the user can click on those images and it will take them to the destination url of the image.

So essentially, my website would directly show the first 10 images from here:
https://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&s...PYe6iwLowoGQCQ

Hope I am making sense

Googles prefreed method would be https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/overview

Quote:

Pricing

Free quota

Usage is free for all users, up to 100 queries per day.

Paid Usage

Any usage beyond the free usage quota will fail if you are not signed up for billing. Once you have enabled billing, you will continue to receive 100 free queries per day. However, you will be billed for all additional requests at the rate of $5 per 1000 queries, for up to 10,000 queries per day.

Or you could scrape google images but they are pretty good at blocking.

Or you might be able to iframe the search query but then you won't see the clicks, etc.

Thanks sarettah

I tried using google's api but it was not that good and the 100 query limit is going to be an issue. Maybe an iframe might do the trick. Any ideas on how to do it?

Not sure how you would limit it to just the first 10 results other than to size the iframe to whatever size 10 results fit in and then shut off the scroll bars.

I was thinking of something like this below but limiting the variable to 10 results.

<?php
// Get URL variable "u"
$url = $_GET['u'];

// Now you have some choices to make
// whether or not to include "http://" with the URL or not

// "http://" is not included, so add it on ...
$url = "http://".$url;

// Now display your <iframe> ...
echo"
<iframe src='$url'" style="border:1px 348 solid;" name="iframe_name" scrolling="yes" frameborder="0" align="center" height="px" width="200px">
</iframe>
";

?>

Scraping them isn't hard, but I highly suggest against embedding the images as that's hotlinking and is found upon. Now saving them to your own server is doable though.

EliteWebmaster · 11-14-2012, 05:31 PM

Scraping would be my first choice. Any chance you could whip up a quick script that can do it :D. You did a great job with that advance GFY Ignore feature ;)

Sounds good I'll keep that in mind. I downloaded a google scraper and it's pretty decent. Only downside is that it only downloads 64 images even though it advertises that it can download up to 2000 images.

Thanks wojfun, sounds good, I'll definitely keep you in mind. Can design something that can scrape info/images from backpage?
