What is Web Scraping?
Web scraping is simply the collection of data from the web.
Web scraping is also known as web crawling, data extraction or data-as-a-service. Scraping allows you to find, extract and compile desired information from competitor, government, ecommerce, social and other public websites into usable formats. One of the key benefits of scraping data is the ability to obtain information that is unique to your specific needs and requirements.
Case Studies
Here are a few examples of how we have helped companies like yours monitor competitors, sentiment and engagement to improve operations and efficiencies by automating their data extraction needs.
We help a national automotive dealer monitor competitor pricing & inventory twice a week. This data feed enables our client to increase profits by dynamically adjusting prices & focusing on higher demand vehicles.
A national food industry association tapped FourFront to crawl a popular recipe website to collect unique engagement data. The organization used this information to guide their content and SEO strategies.
We helped a national financial institution monitor public sentiment around a sensitive industry topic using Twitter data. The organization used this custom data feed to refine its marketing messaging.
Use Cases
Empower your team with up-to-date intelligence on competitor pricing, inventory, customer reviews, and other available data. This data can help increase your sales, profit margins, and find new opportunities such as best selling products, gaps in the market place (high demand products with limited suppliers), and more. We can also set up alerts for new products, pricing changes (highs/lows), inventory levels, and other important thresholds.
If you can not find your ideal list of target businesses from lead gen providers, we can scrape Google search results, Google places, Yelp or any business listing sites and collect highly targeted leads specific for your needs in any industry or region.
Refine your marketing strategies by monitoring yours and competitors’ customer sentiment trends across reviews, social media posts, and other forms of content. We can also create reputation reports and product ratings datasets.
Monitoring competitors’ customer feedback, especially negative reviews and complaints, can help identify weaknesses and service limitations you can use to target their customers.
Every business wants to use artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to increase efficiencies and productivity, but to obtain the best results and maximize your ROI, AI models and systems need quality training data. Since FourFront has more than a decade of experience working with big data, Machine Learning (ML), and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to support our proprietary AI applications, our data experts are uniquely qualified to produce the best training data for your AI systems.
Since SEO is one of our primarily services, we have extensive experience crawling search engine results pages and creating insightful datasets and reports. This data can be used to evaluate top performing competitors, their strategies, strengths and weaknesses. We also create regional organic and local rankings reports to identify geographic opportunities where competitors are weaker, and much more.
Our scraping and data mining systems can automate mundane and repeatable tasks like manual data collection, copying & pasting or manually transferring data between applications that are currently being performed by your team. Automating routine steps across your processes can significantly increase efficiencies, eliminate errors and reduce costs.
