What Data Should a SERP Result Actually Include?

When developers work with search result data, it is tempting to think the only important field is ranking position.
In practice, a useful SERP record usually needs more context.
A basic organic result might include:

{
  "position": 1,
  "title": "Example result title",
  "url": "https://example.com",
  "domain": "example.com",
  "snippet": "Example search result snippet"
}

But for SEO workflows, that is often not enough.
Useful metadata can include:

• keyword
• location
• language
• device
• timestamp
• result type
• visible position
• organic position
• ads presence
• People Also Ask presence
• related searches

The more context you store, the easier it becomes to understand why rankings changed and what the search result page actually looked like at that moment.
