Headless Browsing Limits?


Recommended Posts

OK, I'm not a programmer. When I first saw headless browsing advertised, I had no idea what it was.

 

At this point I understand what it's doing - going out on the web without rendering the entire page. I also understand that it's faster. But what exactly can I do or not do with it?

 

One of the thing I only recently discovered is using Scrapebox to actually SCRAPE things - I always used it as a spam bot. I'm now able to plow through hundreds of websites, scraping emails in seconds with Scrapebox and a few proxies. I'm guessing that's what Scrapebox uses - a headless browser and just grabs the basic HTML to search.

 

Can I use headless browsing to log into an account and do something? Let's say I want to follow a bunch of people on Twitter. Does headless browsing disrupt the log in process? What can't I do with headless browsing?
