[blackhatano]

Hi All,

apologies in advance i wasn't to sure what category to publish this in.

i'm using scrapebox to scrape emails from urls it use to work fine a couple weeks back but not when i try scraping it's not pulling any emails i was wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing and if there's a solution for it?

For starters, check your proxies are still working. Scraping issues tend to be down to proxy issues, so it's best to check fundamentals first before digging into the parser etc.

Yeah it sounds like your proxies may be blocked. Usually it's best to use rotating proxies with a big pool to lower red flags.

Check your proxies, try to decrease the connections and increase timeouts

It's always very frustrating when you want to work with scrapebox but you don't have any good proxies. Even paid proxies usually don't keep their promises

I'm finding the same thing, and sadly these are from sellers here on BHW.

you mean the proxies are from sellers from here? didnt realized it, that they are sold here too...

i am searching also for solutions to scrape as many businesses with email as i can get for a client.
had also tried with scrapebox, but as i need niche, email, zipcode, i ended up with custom script and wasted also a ton of money trying out different proxy services

sbupdater.exe is also getting an error "server currently not available". I think this tool is dying slowly.

Just want to add here, the "you need proxies and even better many and rotationg" is kinda nonsensical if scraping for emails with Scrapebox. In fact, you dont need any proxy if you can get a VPS that won't shut you down on rare honepot websites. Or, just 1 single proxy IP.

Why? Because you gonna scrape different domains and not the same domain.

Absolutely! There is no need for proxies other than touching search engines.
