How to use Zenserp API
To use Zenserp API, you need to create an account on Zenserp and obtain an api token key.
You can simply navigate to the sign-up page and create a new free account.
Once you have created your account, Zenserp will send an email to your account to verify your address. Once your email address is verified, Zenserp will generate an API key for you. Make sure that you don’t share it with unauthorized users.
Let’s call a simple API to observe how it works. Here is a CURL command to extract search results in the JSON format.
-H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY"
Once you hit the request, Zenserp will extract the SERP records for the given query and return you the data instantly. Simple as that.

q: 'codeforgeek',
apikey: 'YOUR_API_KEY'
}
axios.get('https://app.zenserp.com/api/v2/search', {params})
.then(response => {
const apiResponse = response.data;
console.log(apiResponse);
}).catch(error => {
