Web Data Extraction from Artinfo.com

data collection

Project Title: Web Data Extraction verified from Artinfo.com

Project Description:
I am interested in downloading data and getting them verified from the website http://artsalesindex.artinfo.com/asi/lots/1

Accessing data require a login. Creating an account on the website is free. A working login and password are

It seems that if too many pages (>100 ?) are downloaded, the account is suspended and one needs to create a new account, but may be this can be countered (you\’re the pro!)

The pages of interest to verify data are referenced by a number at the end of the web address.

http://artsalesindex.artinfo.com/asi/lots/1 will give the first page,

http://artsalesindex.artinfo.com/asi/lots/16 will give the 16th page, and so on, up to

http://artsalesindex.artinfo.com/asi/lots/4616000

So, there are 4.616 million pages at stake. For each page, I need a copy of all the text that is below the advertisement.

On many pages (not all of them), there is a picture that I also need. The picture must be linked to the text so I can retrieve it easily when looking at the text.

Data can be arranged in a database format, but I would need a link from within the database file to an outside jpg or png file for the picture. Indeed, the image itself should not be stored in the database, but in a jpg file outside, with a clear reference from within the database.

All information on this website is open, public information.

So this is my request. I hope we will be able to work together. I received an offer from a Chinese company but I am interested in obtaining your quote as well.

Thank you for your help and discretion.
