NewsFeed Ready To Use Script
#5
i am not aware of an existing tools where you just input your URL's and get your data you are looking for back. Most people just hardcode their own URL's into their site parsing code because its such a minuscule task for programmers. However, this can be done by someone who knows python/selenium or basic web parsing quite easily. In fact i have done this type of stuff before. However the task of making the tool can be daunting depending on how many sites and pages you are parsing. Each site would need to be manually looked at to define how the HTML is, to extract the correct data. Which is not bad for a couple sites, but time consuming for many. Thats why i doubt there are existing tools like this, because each site requires a different path (thus different code) to obtain the same data such as latest posts (unlike RSS feeds). You also have the added bonus of needing to update the tool when the website changes their code from year to year.

If you want to make the tool yourself, we have a great tutorial to get you started. If you get stuck along the way we can help you. I wouldnt mind showing you how to extract the data from a couple sites. Maybe you would get the hang of it after that and do the rest.

If you want to pay someone to do it for you. We can move this thread to the jobs section. You will have to give more information such as what types of posts you want exactly extracted from those sites, as well as how much you would pay the programmer.
