## Pagination

<Warning>
  Yahoo serves **7 organic results per page** and exposes no page-size
  parameter. `offset` is a zero-based absolute result offset — page 2 is
  `offset=7`, page 3 is `offset=14`. Yahoo also reports no total match count
  on the web SERP, so there is no `total_results` field here.
</Warning>

<Note>
  Yahoo web search is **Bing-syndicated** — organic results come from
  Microsoft's index. Expect results close to, but not identical to, the
  [Bing API](/bing/overview): Yahoo applies its own ranking, ad load and
  layout on top.
