Pixel Position & Geometry on every Yahoo SERP element
Add pixel_position=true to any Yahoo Deep Search (/api/search) call and every item — organic results, ads, People Also Ask, videos, shopping, related searches — comes back with both an integer pixel_position (y-coordinate) and a full pixel_box with x, y, width, and height. Same per-call price, opt-in flag. Paid tiers only; page-1 items are measured live, while pages 2 and beyond come from a per-engine template and can come back null.

Why Yahoo SERP data
A different view of the same query
Yahoo runs one of the few major search experiences outside the Google family, and its results page organizes web, news, images, and video differently. That makes Yahoo a useful second signal for rank tracking, content research, and competitive analysis.
A genuinely different ranking surface
Because Yahoo ranks and lays out results its own way, the same keyword can surface different pages in a different order. Teams that track Google alone miss that variance; cross-referencing Yahoo catches it.
News and image search with real filters
Dedicated Yahoo news and image endpoints come with freshness, size, type, and color filters, so you can pull fresh coverage or a filtered visual set without touching web search.
112-country depth for local research
Target 112 country codes with a country parameter, which makes Yahoo a strong pairing with Google for regional rank tracking.
Rich features parsed into JSON
People Also Ask, Shopping PLAs, embedded videos, and ads all come back as named fields, so you never parse HTML to reach the answer box or the top offer.
