I have been perfecting scrapebox for many needs. However i am working with smallbusinessdb.com. As a result i need to grab multiple variables from each page. Should i try to string one large regex together? Or can i enter them one by one and run scrapebox? @loopline youve been a god to me and have me earning income now. Any advice from you is greatly appreciated.

glad your earning income!

the email scraper plugin has a custom data scraper that you can scrape multiple pieces of data and then get a nice excel output. It also has some nice filters and options. Ill put a video below, although the current version offers more then what was in the video.

I would not try and string one long regex together, I would do a separate entry for each piece of data. A giant regex isn't wrong, the only wrong answer is whatever doesn't work. It just seems simpler and cleaner and way easier to trouble shoot individual entries.

the thing to keep in mind here is that in order for scrapebox to get or see the piece of data, the data you want must be publicly visible with javascript turned off and without having to be logged in. So just turn off javascript in your browser, make sure you are not logged into the site and load the url you want, then do ctrl+u if you can see the data you want, then scrapebox can see it as well.

Thank you much for the response Ryan. So if i make a customer grabber. I can enter 4 separate regex to look for rather than string. For instance the phone number grabber has 3 formats. I can enter a new grabber like 1 2 3 and title them and itll create separate spaces ( | ) for each one?

There are up to 3 fields yes, so max you can enter in 3 different variations of before and after text, or 1 regex. If you needed more you could just have to do like phone 2 and phone 3 etc.. and put formats in those.

However I do have a video on how to make footprints that may be helpful
