$8-15 USD / hour

We currently scrape 192 sites every day, but the sites we scrape are different as there are about 8-10 different software vendors with different programs. What I am trying to accomplish is either (1) find someone who can modify our WinTask program to only extract 'data fields' instead of copying the entire page and drop the output into excel or some pipe delimited format. OR (2) find someone who can create a NEW scraper program (probably 10 different versions because 10 different vendors), that we can easily modify ourselves. I still need the excel or pipe delimited outfield. We are seeking for freelancers who are experienced in data mining and data scrapping for on going work.

Hello. More 20 years programming experience. I need more details to set real time and price. For example first: as I understand you want application for windows - correct? Then if/when we start cooperation I suggest estimate whole job, not per hourly rate. Regards. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, This is Gopinadh. I am an expert in web scraping. I use python scripts to scrap. These are faster because these doesn't open any browser and have multi threading support. I would propose second option of writing new scrapers for easy maintenance in the future. Please let me know which software you are currently using to scrap. Please let me know more details about the websites. Thanks, Gopinadh.

Hello, I'm an experienced developer and would opt for the second option of creating a program to extract the relevant data. I have interest in information retrieval and pattern matching. I will be glad to discuss the finer details on the project. The last requirement of converting the data to excel(CSV) format is straightforward after retrieving the data. Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you soon. Isaac
