i have several websites which i want to set up scrapes for to get betting odds, i have done three myself but it is very tiresome and i am not an amazing programmer. I have attached a working example for a different website, the job is about duplicating/customising this to 5 other websites (the xpaths and some of the logic will necessarily vary). the basic design of the code should not vary betwee the websites, it will be nearly entirely the same with different xpath conditions and different formatting of variables. the code will open up a main website (in the case of the example attached it is [login to view URL]), and then at each 2minute mark, it opens the individual race and scrapes the odds at different times. the results are then output to a csv. could you have a look at the attachment and let me know cost to (a) build this for 5x additional websites, and (b) to make it so it has some error checking and doesnt crash / generally make more robust (should auto restart etc)

Can build a script for the betting website to scrape the odds. Can get the similar data to what is attached. I can tell price for 5 more website after checking those as script is going to depend on it. just a minimum price would be around 250$ for 5 other website. Can build scalable scraping script so that it will run smoothly without any crash These are my skills related to web scraping and crawling Have done scraping in CasperJS Phantomjs, python. Have done testing and automation with selenium also. Know to deal with database like mongo, mysql, Elasticsearch. Also know to handle proxy and captcha while scrapping. Can scrape data from various websites . have done scraping of millions of products from Amazon eBay Walmart. have done scraping of social media websites like Facebook Instagram LinkedIn.

Hello, Coming to your point not all 5 websites can have the same bot , each will require separate coding as each site has its unique navigation and xpaths. Then after proper coding we can scrap the data at any intervals of time as you want. Th output data being saved in excel sheet. I use python selenium for web automation If you have any questions let me know Thank you

Hi I had gone through the website and script. I understood that you need to restart the scraper several times after crashing. This occurs due to threading and use of google chrome. The browser now a days uses inbuilt cache to speed page rendering which means they use ram heavily. The threading depends mostly on Cpu capablity which now a days is 4 cores and 8 threadswhich actually cause ram peaking and crash. So I wish to proceed like Step 1 Rewrite the existing script by avoiding threading and in modular form. This is done to keep the program structure in tact. Step2 make the script to run from scheduler Step3 Add scrapers one by one to above structure Please note the first 2 steps are not covered in milestones or payment. I take it as an opportunity to prove my skills

HELLO. I am used to extracting data from such websites using various methods - if desired - like API calls, simple HTML/XML page scraping or using Selenium to bypass JavaScript heavy websites. In simple words, I am more than happy to provide the relevant dedication and expertise to deliver the data that you require. I, however, would be very grateful if you could shed more light onto the data that you require by getting in touch with me. Thanks.
