What to look for in a Web Scraping freelancer
A strong web scraping expert writes resilient code and respects the sites they touch. Look for:
- Fluency in the right tools: Python with Scrapy, Playwright, or Puppeteer.
- Experience with dynamic content, not just static HTML parsing.
- Smart handling of blocks: proxies, throttling, and realistic request patterns.
- A focus on clean output, with validation and clear data structures.
- Awareness of legal and ethical limits, including terms of service and personal data.
