SE::Dogpile - Dogpile Search Engine Scraper

img

Overview of the scraper

Dogpile search results scraper. Thanks to the SE::Dogpile scraper, you will be able to obtain large databases of links ready for further use. You can use queries in the same form as you enter them in the Dogpile search bar, including search operators (url, language, site, etc.).

A-Parser functionality allows you to save Dogpile scraper settings for future use (presets), set scraping schedules, and much more. You can use automatic query multiplication, substitution of subqueries from files, iteration of alphanumeric combinations and lists to obtain the maximum possible number of results.

Saving results is possible in the form and structure you need, thanks to the built-in powerful Template Toolkit template engine, which allows you to apply additional logic to results and output data in various formats, including JSON, SQL, and CSV.

Collected data

  • Links, anchors, and snippets from search results
  • List of related keywords
Collected data

Features

  • Scrapes the maximum number of results provided by Dogpile - 50 pages of 10 elements in the results
  • Total number of results - 500
  • Ability to search for related keywords

Use Cases

  • Collecting link databases - for A-Poster, XRumer, AllSubmitter, etc.
  • Keyword competition assessment
  • Searching for backlinks (mentions) of websites
  • Checking website indexing
  • Searching for vulnerable websites
  • Any other options involving Dogpile scraping in one form or another

Queries

As queries, you should specify search phrases exactly as if they were entered directly into the Dogpile search form, for example:

test
parser language: ru
site: a-parser.com
site: slideshare.net Java Developer gmail.com resume -sample -samples -example -templates

Query Substitutions

You can use built-in macros for query multiplication; for example, if we want to get a very large database of forums, we specify several main queries in different languages:

forum
forum
foro
论坛

In the query format, we will specify a character iteration from a to zzzz; this method allows for maximum rotation of search results and obtaining many new unique results:

$query {az:a:zzzz}

This macro will create 475254 additional queries for each original search query, which in total will give 4 x 475254 = 1901016 search queries—an impressive figure, but not a problem at all for A-Parser. At a speed of 2000 queries per minute, such a task will be processed in just 16 hours.

Using operators

You can use search operators in the query format, so they will be automatically added to each query from your list:

site:$query
