I'm just starting to explore data scraping for my work. I'm not looking for leads or personal info, just language examples so I can write for specific clients. Basically, I want to scrape a bunch of posts from a client's page and analyze the language. It'd be pretty rare I'd do more than one per day. On most days, I wouldn't be scraping any at all - it's basically just when I get a new client. It's not THAT time-consuming to just copy/paste, so I'm wondering if this level of scraping exposes me to getting blocked. Anything I should be considering? Should I just do it manually?

Can you give a example on line 10? You blured the hole line.
something like: " proxy = password for example would be great. since we can't see anything.

Thanks for tutorial though.

Hi, if I want to scrape only specific posts that are about a certain need like "if someone is searching for a Room for Rent" then what sort of changes should I need to make in the code?
Also, if I want to run the scraping for various search queries like " Buy a House", " House for Rent", or any other. Then what modifications to the code are needed?
Thanks

Everything works until it asks for a login :) Are there any ways to avoid logging in?
