Project title:	Custom content scraper scripts and associated link checkers
Posted by:	External project from PeoplePerHour

Description:	I am looking for a freelancer who can make custom content scraper scripts that will fetch products from select sections of specific ecommerce sites and output the data I need in the form of CSV excel files. I'm in New Zealand and run a site that displays products from various local online stores. I need someone to create a unique content scraping script for each store I specify, that I can execute from my computer as many times as I need. I will also need a corresponding link checker for the store. The link checker script (also unique for that store) will check all the products of a store in my site against the original shop's site and notify me which products have expired (no longer listed in the original site) and which products have had their details changed (like price or title). So, if there's a clothing store and I ask you to design the content scraper for it, it should fetch the details of all the products from a section of that store (that I'll specify) and output the results in the form of CSV files in my computer. Then, every few days, I'll run the link checker script for the same shop that will check the listed products in my site (for that store) against the store's website, so I can see which products have expired and which have had their price changed, so I can keep my site updated for that store. I am willing to pay $30 for each content scraper script and $20 for the link checker, so USD $50 in total for each shop. I will be averaging 2-3 shops a month give or take and am looking for someone who can work long term with me. Each time I want a new script done for a new client, I will specify which sections & features I want included and which ones omitted. You must be able to tailor the script accordingly, including things like formatting and links. You will have good communication skills, be willing & able to follow instructions via email / messaging here in PPH (no Skyping or video/voice chatting), be competent and skilled, produce the scripts in a reasonable time (3-5 days max) and be reliable. You must also be very proficient in content scraping and have a good understanding of WordPress and probably Python. I need 2 scripts and 1 link checker to start with, but will have more to do down the line. I will give you all the specific details, links etc. if I shortlist you. No need to bid for less than what I've proposed, just do a good job for that price and I'll be happy.
