This is the first step in a long project I'm planning. I want to crawl information from all website of one sector/industry. This means, the starting point is creating a crawler that can be customizable for each website, and once that mapping is done for each website, run it on a daily basis to update the information in my db. My idea is having a final database with structured information, so I will need to map each website I want to crawl to the fields in my database. The websites I want to crawl will be updated on a daily basis. I'm open to different designs and technologies (PHP, Java, etc.) An example of the design: - Create DB with structured fields I will provide - Create XML mapping of website to crawl - fields in DB - Create a flexible crawler that will read the XML and update DB - Will need that the crawler will download and archive the downloaded files - Consider that some websites I checked already have spider protections. I need solutions for this. Need options and suggestions as XML per website, URLs crawling strategies, etc. My budget is open.

Hi How you will customize each website? I assume that each website has different layout. So the same parse code, can't work for all sites? Thanks

Hi, I have 20 years web development and design experience and now have a small team of highly experienced and talented individuals working with me also. We've build crawlers and scrapers for various projects over the years. One concern sometimes is that the way the website is outputted can be difficult to scrap data from but usually nothing is impossible. I think it would help to see sample list of sites you intend to do this with. If the sites will always change and new ones added, I think you . have to remember that this is something that might need to be updated as you go along as every site is different and things are always changing. Hope to hear from you as it sounds interesting, specially since it's only an initial part of a bigger project like you mentioned and I believe I (along with my team) have the right experience, capability and skills to handle what you may need :) Thanks for reading Franco
