"I love the scrapingdog api for making searches on google. Definitely 5 stars and I would give it more stars if it was possible. With scrapingdog I can collect various info from local gmb listings such as whether or not the listing has one or more of the following: Quote Button - Chat Button - Has it been Claimed - Google Posts - Profile Photos This helps me when I follow up with the gmb owner at a later time."

How Do We Compare?
Scrapingdog Offers More Features...& that too at half the pricing!!
With Scrapingdog you get more than 99.4% success rate with major domains like Indeed, Amazon, Walmart, Zillow, etc. While ScraperAPI on the other hand has a low success rate against these domains. Infact with ScraperAPI you cannot even scrape indeed with normal GET request. As far as our pricing is concerned, our cost will be alomst half for certain domains(Example amazon.com).
With Scrapingdog you get more features and more reliability. We always say web scrapers should be reliable because any data blockage will destroy your data stream. Important Features like wait parameter, screenshot & success rate calculator are absent in ScraperAPI.

"So far VERY pleased with how it is working! Set up took me 2 minutes compared to other alternatives. Also, I used one of their recent published scrapping guides, and it worked 100% as advertised!!"

Give Scrapingdog A Spin
Scrapingdog uses combination of headless chrome and right proxy according to the level of protection used by the target website. Our API is so smart that it changes headers according to the domain. We focus on reducing the number of steps taken by the customer to get the desired result. With our API you just need to make abasic GET API and that is all!
Scrapingdog has a pool of 10M+ IPs, that pool has dedicated IPs for certain domains. Our API uses appropriate proxy and header combination to avoid any captcha.
Some websites takes longer time to load every component of the website due to excessive API calling. For this we use wait paramter to load the website completely before returning any result back to you. Scrapingdog also provides dedicated APIs for Google and Linkedin. With these APIs you can scrape any number of pages without getting blocked.
With over 7 years of experience in web scraping our API delivers highest success rate for most of the domains. Our web scrapers are fast and non-blocking. We constantly keep changing our network to bring new IPs to keep the success rate higher at given point of time.
