Website Contact Data Entry

March 25th, 2009 No comments

I have a text file containing about 1700 URL’s. An example of the list is attached. Here’s what I need you to do:

Visit each URL. If the site is NOT veterinary-specific, delete it.

If the site IS veterinary-specific, then you must visit the site and capture the following data:

Name of veterinary hospital/clinic
Address
City
State
ZIP
Phone #
e-mail (see note 1)
Owner’s name (see note 2)

Most of the above contact information will be found on the bottom center or the bottom left column on the home page. some time you may need to visit the Contact Us page.

This information must be presented to me in a CSV format so I can import it into Excel.

NOTE 1: Some sites will contain an email address on their home page or their Contact page. Some sites will not have an email address. From what I have seen, about 50% of the sites will have an email address.

NOTE 2: Determining the owner requires some effort. The owner may appear right on the front page, or, you may have to click the “Our Doctors” or “Our Vets” link and the owner will usually be the first person listed. If you quickly read their biography, it may mention their role as the owner.

Like I said, the list contains about 1760 URL’s. I will pay you XX cents (USD) for each name/address/etc (record), but you must complete the whole list.

Funds will be placed in Escrow. Funds will be released AFTER I have received the list and I have done a basic Quality Check on the list.

This list will be used for an expensive mailing, so proper data capture and data entry is needed.

Contact Data Scraping

Our client is looking at the possibilities of scraping contact details and data from a specific URL;

Over 200,000 contact names, addresses, telephone and emails exist in the data. If you believe you can obtain this data, please make contact for the URL. In order to place a bid.

The data is required in csv or excel file format

Thanks
