I was wondering if anyone could break down the pricing plan for me. Talk about needlessly complicated... Also, if any current BOSS users can comment on how this will affect their operations, that would be awesome.
- sh1mmer 18y agoThe exact breakdown is here. http://developer.yahoo.com/search/boss/fees.html http://developer.yahoo.com/search/boss/fees.html There are two examples: * Developer A submits 7000 API requests in a given day. Each API call requests search results 1-10. Since 1000 requests of this type cost 3 units (for a total of 21 units) and each developer gets 30 units per day for free, Developer A is not charged anything. * Developer B also submits 7000 API requests. Each API call requests results 1-100. Since 1000 requests of this type cost 10 units (for a total of 70 units) and each developer gets 30 units per day for free, Developer B will be charged for 40 units (70 - 30 = 40). The price of 40 units is $4.00 (40 x $0.10 = $4.00). It's also worth noting that pricing is in units of 1000 requests however we will charge per request, it's just not worth quoting prices for units smaller than 1000. Disclaimer: I work for Y!
