Web Scraping vs Crawling: What's the Real Difference and When to Use Each? or Web Scraping vs Crawlin

Web scraping vs crawling isn’t just tech—it’s also about ethics.

Crawling’s usually fine (Google does it), but scraping can get sketchy if you’re taking data without permission.

Tools like ScrapingBee handle proxies/headers, which helps avoid bans.

But always read ToS. Some sites (like LinkedIn) will sue. 😬
