Scraper Overview

The Yandex WordStat keyword scraper supports automatic query multiplication, you can be sure that you will get the maximum number of results from the output. A-Parser can also automatically navigate through related queries to a specified depth.

A-Parser functionality allows you to save scraping settings for later use (presets), set a scraping schedule, and much more. You can use automatic query multiplication, substitution of subqueries from files, iteration of alphanumeric combinations and lists to obtain the maximum possible number of results when scraping Yandex Wordstat.
