9. Section-by-Section Writing Guidance

1. Fuel Price API Pricing overview

  • Put the answer first. Use a current-price placeholder until the official figure has been verified, then add the effective date and units in c/l or R/l.
  • Clarify whether the context is inland, coastal, national, province-specific or fuel-grade-specific.
  • Avoid presenting a forecast, estimate or old table as the latest official price.

2. Available endpoints and data fields

  • Describe data fields, update cadence, source hierarchy and validation steps only where they are confirmed.
  • Direct commercial users to the appropriate data/API conversion path without inventing endpoints, trials or pricing.
  • Avoid claims about downloads, live feeds or integrations that are not already verified.

3. Coverage by fuel type, province and month

  • Explain the geographic price context and whether the page reflects inland/coastal zones rather than a separate municipal price.
  • Add examples of what the reader should compare locally, such as petrol grade, diesel grade and calculator use.
  • Avoid implying every suburb or station has a different official regulated price unless the page is about station-level retail behaviour.

4. Update frequency and source methodology

  • Separate confirmed official adjustments from forecast commentary and indicator movement.
  • Explain what changes should be tracked, such as exchange rate, oil price, slate balance and CEF over-/under-recovery data.
  • Avoid language such as 'will increase' or 'confirmed' before an official announcement exists.

5. Example API use cases

  • Describe data fields, update cadence, source hierarchy and validation steps only where they are confirmed.
  • Direct commercial users to the appropriate data/API conversion path without inventing endpoints, trials or pricing.
  • Avoid claims about downloads, live feeds or integrations that are not already verified.

6. Access, licensing and contact CTA

  • Keep the section tightly focused on fuel price API pricing and the intent of this exact URL.
  • Use South African examples, plain language and clear distinctions between official prices, forecasts, estimates and general guidance.
  • Avoid drifting into a separate canonical topic; link to the relevant planned page instead.

7. Frequently asked questions

  • Use FAQs only to answer genuine follow-up questions visible on the page.
  • Keep answers brief and avoid adding FAQPage schema unless eligibility is confirmed.
