In April 2016 Import.io went through a major update, removing desktop application for new sign ups and introduced cloud extraction, with free plans limited at 10.000 queries per month, as well as paid plans starting from $249 per month for 50.000 queries per month.
#Octoparse url list software#
Import.io was a free software with no limits, supported by people hiring their staff to do scraping in their place. I was imputing a list of URL and extract them in bulk, at rate of 1 page per second, but slowing down over time, so was better to run in batches taking max 5-10 hours. It changed my life, an easy to use do-it-yourself tool, allowing me to quickly create new databases by scraping data from other websites, for my personal research, which would take many hours copying data manually (do note that copying other websites can bring you into legal issues, especially if you use their data commercially, such as creating your own website). In August 2015 I did several Google searches related to scraping and found Import.io. I was not aware of possibility to do scraping. Original databases with no equivalent on internet! Since childhood I created numerous databases manually, for example a database of car models and their production years, by browsing Wikipedia for each car model and writing them into my databases. I love doing research and compiling data in databases. Tired of Octoparse bugs and errors? Try ScraperAPI, use coupon code “ teoalida10” to get 10% discount.
