Hey everyone!
So, I’ve been trying to scrape address data from Google Maps - business for a project, and man, it’s been a bit of a headache. I’ve tried a few tools like Octoparse and Scrapy, but I’m not sure if I’m doing it right. Anyone got tips on the best tools or methods to scrape address data from Google Maps - business without getting blocked?
Also, is it better to use APIs or just go with web scraping? I’ve heard mixed things, and I don’t wanna mess up my IP or anything lol.
Would love to hear what’s worked for y’all! Cheers!
Hey! I feel your pain, scraping address data from Google Maps - business can be such a hassle. I’ve had some success with ParseHub—it’s pretty user-friendly and doesn’t require much coding.
As for APIs vs scraping, I’d say APIs are safer if you can afford them. Google Maps API is legit but can get pricey. If you’re on a budget, scraping with tools like Scrapy or BeautifulSoup works, but you gotta rotate proxies to avoid getting blocked.
Good luck!
