I need a program that can scrape data from manta.com.
[login to view URL] is a large business directory that lists things like business name, address, owners, phone numbers, e-mail address, physical address, etc. I want a program that can harvest that information, and export it to a spreadsheet.
I had one made in the past, but manta doesn't like when you try to access all their information, so my IP was banned from the site for a few months. You will need to find a way around that. Another problem with that application was that it didn't allow me to search specific industries. It just grabbed ALL of their 20 million listings and tried to proccess the information.
A search filter MUST be present.
You can search specific states, industries, business revenue, number of employees, etc. on the manta site. I'd like as many of these search filters present in my program.
Let me know if you have any questions. Happy bidding.
