Charged for each domain result with traffic data or an explicit no-data response saved to the dataset.

Loads the Similarweb Performance Overview page for the domain and extracts traffic, rankings, category, country insights, screenshots, and related metadata.

• Similar Sites Scraped (similar-sites-scraped)

One delivered row: a domain's traffic analytics, or its WHOIS and keyword density. Domains SimilarWeb does not track, typos, and homepages that refuse the fetch are delivered with a reason and are NOT charged. Repeat lookups in the same month come from cache at the same price.

One successfully processed public website profile written to the Dataset.

Charged per domain that returns real traffic data — $2.00 per 1,000. Unknown domains, sites with no measurable traffic and failed lookups are never charged.

• Actor Start (actor-start)

Charged once per domain where real Similarweb overview data was extracted. Blocked or empty lookups are never charged.

One website result with the selected report pages saved to the default dataset.

• Report Items (report_items)

One successfully delivered website traffic or competitive intelligence result.

One Similarweb website traffic row (visits, ranks, sources, keywords, AI traffic).

• Top Websites row (scraped-ranking)

Single result in the default dataset

Traffic data of one domain. Domains without Similarweb data and errors are free.

Fires once per domain row delivered. One decisional row: organic keyword count, estimated search traffic (organic + paid), and top-position distribution for the selected market. Domains with no data, failed lookups, cache hits, and empty results are never charged.

• Top pages add-on (per domain) (top-pages)
• Backlink summary add-on (per domain) (backlink-summary)

Charged per domain analyzed: estimated organic/paid traffic, top ranking keywords with volume & CPC, position distribution, and top organic competitors.

• Actor Start (actor-start)
• Keyword Overlap Report (keyword-gap)

Charged once per result collected.

• Actor Start (init)

Charged for each Similarweb domain analytics result returned.

One domain successfully written to the Dataset with traffic data. Domains with no measurable traffic are written but not charged.

Charged per result extracted.

• Run started (start)

Charged once per website delivered to the dataset after your filters: its SimilarWeb rank, visits, engagement, traffic sources, top countries, keywords and AI traffic. No start fee.

• Competitors added (competitors)

Traffic data, global ranking, top keywords, traffic sources, and competitors for one domain

Extracts website traffic, search keywords, rankings, traffic sources, and AI traffic analytics for a single domain.

One domain with traffic, ranks, engagement, traffic sources, ranking keywords and technologies.

• Run start fee (run_start)

Charged for each website saved with its traffic overview (ranks, visits, engagement, top countries, traffic sources, search split, top keywords). Domains with no data are not charged.

• Website with full details (site-details)

Single result in the default dataset.

Charged once for each ranked website delivered: rank, domain, the site's own category, month-over-month rank change, bounce rate, pages per visit and average visit duration. Slices that fail to load are never charged, and a domain repeated inside one slice is dropped before billing.

One successful domain analytics result

One website traffic and audience breakdown report generated.

Cost per successfully scraped result.

• Actor start (actor-start)

One domain's traffic row: estimated monthly organic and paid visits, and how many keywords it ranks for in each.

• Ranking Keywords (keyword-result)

Charged once per dataset row that contains data (one website in aggregated mode, one website and data option in individual mode).

• In-depth data (indepth-search)

Paid plans: one event for each further 1,000 source rows read past the first 1,000 of the run-start fee (or part of them: 1,001 to 2,000 rows read = one event), counted on the rows actually read, also rows that are not snapshots or are of domains not in `domains`. The run asks before it reads: when the maximum charge no longer pays for the next 1,000 rows next to the period rows of what was read, it stops reading and compares what it read. A restarted run does not pay again for rows it already paid for. Not charged: free plans (a free run reads up to 5,000 rows without it), rows of the run-start fee, sources that could not be read.

• Run started (run-started)
• Domain × month compared (period-compared)
• AI change explanation (change-explained)
• Domain or group summary (domain-summary)

Charged once for each domain row persisted (OK or NO_DATA). Covers the traffic and SEO data lookup for that domain.
