    hello,

    I did some testing with the google api.
    It seems to work very well. But sometimes I get less results using the api comparing visiting google.

    For example, using search phrase "jicht site:www.avogel.nl" at google, I get 10 hits

    But using the API, I get only 3 hits:

    Anyone an idea?

    I think the API doesn't return those indented results like the main search does. And, since you're doing a site search, that could severely limit your results.

    Thanks for your answer.

    But if I get 20 hits at google on my domain, I would expect 20 hits doing the same (domain) search using the API?

    Regards,
