Wordpress is served through the Universal Web Scraper API

You scrape Wordpress with Chocodata's Universal Web Scraper API: point it at any Wordpress URL and get the page back as structured JSON. Residential proxies, rotation, and retries are handled for you, with no Wordpress-specific setup. The same API key and credits work here as on every dedicated endpoint.

About Wordpress

WordPress.com is a hosted blogging and website platform powering millions of public blogs and sites. Public posts, blog feeds, tag pages, and the Reader/search surface expose post titles, body content, author names, publish dates, and tags worth extracting.

Scraping note: Individual posts are server-rendered and many sites also expose a structured REST/RSS feed, so a single fetch usually returns full post HTML.

Example Wordpress page

https://wordpress.com/read/search?q=example-topic

Pass a URL like this as url= to the Universal Web Scraper API and get it back as JSON.

Fields you can extract from Wordpress

check_small post title check_small post content check_small author name check_small publish date check_small tags/categories check_small post URL

Common use: A content-discovery tool scrapes WordPress.com blog posts to monitor what publishers are writing about a given topic.

Everything you need to scrape Wordpress

Residential proxies keep your own IP out of every request, the JSON comes back clean, and 1,000 free requests a month let you prove wordpress scraper works before you add a card.

data_object

Clean structured JSON

The Wordpress page comes back as JSON in the parse mode you choose: auto, html, text, or json. No selectors to maintain for wordpress scraper.

gpp_good

Bypasses CAPTCHAs and anti-bot defenses

We get past CAPTCHAs, IP rate limiting, IP blocking, and headless-browser detection on Wordpress using rotating, country-matched residential proxies, so requests look like real users and your own IP stays private.

Parameter	Type	Required	Example
url	string	required	https://example.com
parse	enum	optional	auto
country	string	optional	us

Enum parameters accept a fixed set of values. For example, parse accepts auto, html, text, json.

Wordpress Scraper API FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Wordpress?

expand_more

Scraping publicly accessible Wordpress data is generally legal in the US under the Ninth Circuit's hiQ v. LinkedIn ruling, which held that scraping public web data does not violate the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. It does not override Wordpress's own Terms of Service, which are a contract matter, so check those for your use case and comply with data laws such as GDPR. This is general information, not legal advice.

How do I scrape Wordpress without getting blocked?

expand_more

You scrape Wordpress without getting blocked by sending the URL to the Universal Web Scraper API, which fetches it through rotating residential proxies and retries on soft blocks. Your own IP is never used, so Wordpress's anti-bot layer sees ordinary residential traffic instead of a server.

What data does the Wordpress Scraper API return?

expand_more

Through the Universal Web Scraper API you get the Wordpress page back as JSON: rendered HTML, plain text, or auto-parsed content depending on the parse mode you pass. You choose the URL, Chocodata returns the data.

How much does the Wordpress Scraper API cost?

expand_more

The Wordpress Scraper API costs nothing to start: the Free plan includes 1,000 requests per month (5,000 credits) across all 235 targets. After that, monthly plans begin at $19, or you top up pay-as-you-go at $0.90 per 1,000 successful requests. One request is 5 credits, and non-2xx responses are never charged.

Do I need a Wordpress account or login?

expand_more

No Wordpress login is needed for public pages. You point the Universal Web Scraper API at a publicly accessible Wordpress URL with your Chocodata API key; you do not hand over any Wordpress credentials. Login-gated content is not supported.
