google serp scrape help please

[stanf 43]

this seems so simple, but still its failing.

this is a simple url scrape. I chose the page scrape because it seemed the simplest way to isolate the data i need.

try-bbw-redult.ubot

What exactly are you trying to scrape? All the links on the page?

Hi,

 

To determine what html I use for my page scrapes. I will open the webpage in a browser like Firefox or Chrome. Inspect the element/text I am interested in. Look at the html surrounding the element/text I want. For a search results or list webpage I will look at more then one of the same element/text to be sure I choose html they have in common.

or

You could look at the webpage source to figure it out.
