Startpage Scraper
The Startpage scraper template turns configured Startpage result pages into a clean CSV. Add keyword and page URLs, run the local desktop app, and export keyword, title, result link, snippet, and page URL rows without writing a scraper or routing query lists through a hosted SERP vendor.

At a glance
Startpage to CSV without a cloud SERP API
Export result pages into fixed columns
Use it when you need export Startpage results workflows that produce a table, not screenshots. Each row keeps the search keyword beside the result title, link, description, and source page URL.
Cover multiple keywords and pages
Pagination is configured as a known URL list. Add page 1, page 2, and page 3 URLs for each keyword, then let Loop Continue advance through the queue.
Keep query lists on your machine
The browser session and CSV write happen in the desktop app. That matters when a team wants a local desktop scraper instead of account-based cloud runners.
Use the export in normal analysis tools
Open the CSV in Excel, Sheets, BI tools, or enrichment pipelines. The output is structured enough for ranking checks, competitor discovery, and evidence logs.

Nuanced outcome
Keep query configuration and exported rows under desktop custody while still documenting where each listing came from through the saved page_url column.
How to use
Configure the Startpage scraper workflow
1
Import the template
Download the free JSON template from this page and import it into UScraper. The hosted file is the same workflow definition used for the example export.
2
Edit the Navigate URL list
Replace the sample queries with Startpage result URLs for your own keywords and pages. The bundled URLs use Startpage's GET-style search format with query, language, and page parameters.
3
Confirm the save folder
The Structured Export block writes startpage-scraper.csv with headers and append mode. Change the folder before running if you want exports grouped by project.
4
Run the loop
The automation follows Navigate -> page load wait -> short sleep -> body check -> structured export -> Loop Continue until every configured URL has been processed.
5
Open and review the CSV
Check row counts and spot-check a few links. If a result page produced no rows, rerun a small batch and watch for CAPTCHA, anti-abuse prompts, or a layout change.

Headers included - rows append across every configured keyword and page URL
The field set is intentionally narrow. It captures the parts most teams need for search monitoring: what was searched, what appeared, where it pointed, what snippet Startpage showed, and which result page generated the row.
Frequently asked questions
Startpage publishes public search result pages, but automated collection can still conflict with its terms, robots directives, anti-abuse controls, copyright in snippets, privacy rules, or local law. Keep volumes modest, respect technical blocks, avoid redistributing protected excerpts, and get legal review before using scraped SERP data commercially.
Limits
Practical limits and maintenance notes
Keep these constraints visible
Pacing
High-volume runs can trigger checks
Avoid parallel runs and pause when Startpage asks for verification. This template is designed for controlled research batches, not aggressive crawling.
Selectors
Search layouts can change
The export reads current Startpage result cards. If Startpage redesigns the result page, update the Structured Export mapping before trusting a fresh dataset.
Policy
Review Startpage guidance before reuse
Read the official Startpage Search Engine support, robots.txt, and relevant terms before republishing or selling collected snippets.
