SE::AOL::Suggest - AOL search suggestions parser

Overview of the parser

A search suggest parser for keywords in AOL. Thanks to the SE::AOL::Suggest parser, you can automatically collect keyword databases from AOL search engine suggestions by query. Using the SE::AOL::Suggest parser, you can easily and quickly parse AOL suggestions by query.

Thanks to the multi-threaded operation of A-Parser, the query processing speed can reach 4700 queries per minute, which on average allows obtaining up to 13500-14500 results per minute.

Overview: speed of operation

You can use automatic query multiplication, substitution of subqueries from files, permutation of alphanumeric combinations and lists to obtain the maximum possible number of results. Using results filtering you can immediately clean the result by removing all unnecessary trash (using negative keywords).

A-Parser functionality allows you to save parsing settings for the SE::AOL::Suggest parser for further use (presets), set parsing schedules, and much more.

Saving results is possible in the form and structure you need, thanks to the built-in powerful Template Toolkit templating engine which allows applying additional logic to results and outputting data in various formats, including JSON, SQL, and CSV.

Collected data

  • Number of results per query
  • Search suggestions for the query

what data the SE::AOL::Suggest parser collects

Capabilities

  • Support for all AOL search operators (site:, etc.)
  • Parses the maximum number of results provided by AOL - 100 pages with 20 elements per SERP

Use cases

  • Collecting keyword databases

Queries

As queries, you should specify search phrases, for example:

write essay
Football
Speak in english
forex
cheap essay

Query substitutions

You can use built-in macros for automatic substitution of subqueries from files; for example, if we want to add a list of other words to each query, we specify several main queries:

essay
article
thesis

In the query format, we specify a macro for substituting additional words from the file Keywords.txt; this method allows increasing query variability manifold:

{subs:Keywords} $query 

This macro will create as many additional queries as there are in the file for each original search query, which in total will give [number of original queries(domains)] x [number of queries in the Keywords file] = [total number of queries] as a result of the macro's operation.

For example, if the file Keywords.txt contains:

buy
cheap

As a result, the substitution macro will turn 3 main queries into 6:

buy essay
cheap essay
buy article
cheap article
buy thesis
cheap thesis
