Andy 0 Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Hi all I want to add a feature in my bot that can state how many Youtube videos are ranking in the top 10 for a given keyword phrase. Can anyone tell me the easiest way of doing this?I've scraped the URLs of the top 10 and could go through them to count the number of youtube URLs, but is there a simpler way? How would you just search the web page source for the number of times "youtube.com/watch" appeared? Any help appreciated as I am a little rusty with Ubot. thanks Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mamica 10 Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Scraping youtube sux.but u have API. they give you 50 000 000 querrys for free everyday. So i would do a search with api and then navigate trough all pages (this goes really fast) and count videos by their codes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 0 Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Its not Youtube I want to scrape, it's Google results to see how many Youtube videos show up in the top 10. I've decided to scrape all URLs in the top 10 and then check each one individually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
