SE::Google::SafeBrowsing - Check domain in Google blacklist

Overview of the scraper

Google Safe Browsing scraper allows you to check a domain against the Google blacklist. Using the Google Safe Browsing scraper, you can check your own domain databases for presence in the Google blacklist. You can learn more about this status in Google Search Help.

A-Parser functionality allows you to save scraping settings for future use (presets), set scraping schedules, and much more.

Thanks to A-Parser multithreading, the request processing speed can reach 3800-4000 requests per minute.

Overview: speed of operation

Saving results is possible in any format and structure you need, thanks to the built-in powerful Template Toolkit which allows applying additional logic to results and outputting data in various formats, including JSON, SQL, and CSV.

Collected data

  • Presence in the list of suspicious sites

what data the SE::Google::SafeBrowsing scraper collects

Use Cases

  • Checking a list of domains for being blacklisted by Google
  • Monitoring your own domains for being blacklisted by Google

Queries

You must specify the URL of the target site as queries, for example:

http://a-parser.com/
http://www.yandex.ru/
http://facebook.com/
http://youtube.com/
http://perfect-soft.net/

Output results examples

A-Parser supports flexible result formatting thanks to the built-in Template Toolkit, which allows it to output results in arbitrary forms, as well as structured ones like CSV or JSON

Exporting the blacklist check list

Result format:

$query: $exists\n

Example result showing the URL and whether it is in the Google blacklist:

http://youtube.com/: 0
http://www.yandex.ru/: 0
http://a-parser.com/: 0
http://perfect-soft.net: 1
http://facebook.com/: 0

Outputting results to a CSV table

The built-in utility $tools.CSVLine allows creating correct tabular documents ready for import into Excel or Google Sheets.

General result format:

[% tools.CSVline(query.orig,p1.exists) %]

File name:

$datefile.format().csv

Initial text:

Site,Check result

Example result:

Site,Check result
http://youtube.com/,0
http://www.yandex.ru/,0
http://a-parser.com/,0
http://perfect-soft.net,1
http://facebook.com/,0
tip

The Result format uses the Template Toolkit to output the query and the blacklist check.

In the result file name, simply change the file extension to csv.

To make the "Prepend text" option available in the Task Editor, you need to activate "More options". In "Prepend text", write the column names separated by commas and make the second line empty.

Saving in SQL format

Result format:

[% "INSERT INTO volumes VALUES('" _ query.query _ "', '" _ exists _ "')\n" %]

Example result:

INSERT INTO serp VALUES('http://www.yandex.ru/', '0')
INSERT INTO serp VALUES('http://a-parser.com/', '0')
INSERT INTO serp VALUES('http://perfect-soft.net', '1')
INSERT INTO serp VALUES('http://facebook.com/', '0')
INSERT INTO serp VALUES('http://youtube.com/', '0')

Dump results to JSON

Common result format:

[% IF notFirst;
",\n";
ELSE;
notFirst = 1;
END;

obj = {};
obj.query = p1.query.orig;
obj.exists = p1.exists;

obj.json %]

Initial text:

[

Final text:

]

Example result:

[{"query":"http://www.yandex.ru/","exists":"0"},
{"query":"http://youtube.com/","exists":"0"},
{"query":"http://facebook.com/","exists":"0"},
{"query":"http://a-parser.com/","exists":"0"},
{"query":"http://perfect-soft.net","exists":"1"}]
tip

To make the "Prepend text" and "Append text" options available in the Task Editor, you need to activate "More options".

Results processing

A-Parser allows processing results directly during scraping; in this section, we have provided the most popular cases for the SE::Google::SafeBrowsing scraper

Saving domains with validation value "1"

Add a filter and select the check value variable $exists - Listed as suspicious from the dropdown list. Select type: String equal. Next, in String, enter the value we need: 1. With such a filter, you can remove all results with an unwanted value.
