I need a scraper that will allow me to search youtube by search terms, then export out the title, description and URL of the resulting videos. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
 
Are you looking for person who can do that or the software which can perform that task ?
 
If you can program you can use the gdata youtube api https://developers.google.com/youtube/
Keep in mind that you can't hammer the api too often. My experience 1 request a seciond works great. You can rip millions of url's with it.

You can do this in ScrapeBox, it's just 2 steps. Harvest urls using the YouTube engine, i used the keyword "scrapebox" and 100 results.

Then click Grab / Check >> Grab meta info from harvested urls list:

When done you can export all data as Excel .xlsx, or export keywords and transfer keywords back to the main GUI for further harvesting. As you can see by the timers to do all that took 6 seconds, 4 seconds to harvest and 2 seconds to scrape the meta info.
