Hi guys, I have a list of businesses names I want to check if there are verified on GMB.
I was thinking to scrape the "Own this business?" part of the Knowledge Graph but it doesn't seems to work. I'm trying to do it with custom grabber in scrapebox.

Do you know any other way to check this? Maybe @loopline you have any advice?

Ive had other people want to scrape google my business stuff before and Ive never been able to figure out how. Because GMB relies heavily on javascript, if not entirely and scrapebox uses raw sockets and threads. These raw threads do not support javascript, so scrapebox sees the internet with javascript turned off. Same reason google maps won't work.

So unfortunately i don't have a good answer for you. if you can get it to show up in regular google search results, then you can approach it from that angle.
 
Thanks for your response! I didn't realize that the text I wanted to scrape was also javascript. I guess I have to do it with a parser that support javascript, but free ones are quite slow.

Yeah, you would need a parser that supports javascript or something custom/headless browser etc..
 
I have a process that I am still tweaking that I can share here when finished, if there's appetite for it.
 
Is there anybody who has developed this or a software thats available on the market? Was also looking to scrape things like Domain authority linked to the GMB etc?
Thanks
