Baidu Search API

Live Baidu web results for any query: organic results with title, the real destination link (taken from Baidu's result metadata, with Baidu's redirect link alongside), displayed URL, snippet and date, plus related searches. 10 to 50 results per page. Ads and Baidu's security verification pages are detected; verification pages are never charged. Baidu often challenges proxy traffic: each request is retried on fresh Chinese and then international IPs, and a request that still fails is free, so retry it later.
