Most countries have consumer protection laws that stop things like charging for services and then never providing them.

Surely this is illegal

What about results? Are you getting much affiliate attention or conversion?

is it working well for you?

Depends what kind of bot protection and volume of scraping you're looking at.

If there's minimal bot protection and you're able to scrape locally off your PC, you can literally take the page html, put a schema into openAI structured response, and get your data.

If you can't get by from scraping locally or using residential proxies on a server due to high bot protection, then it's probably not worth building yourself.

Check out fire crawl and see how it compares to scraping bee for your needs.

Thanks Brian, appreciate all the advice.

Appreciate the feedback Derek. I'll be in touch soon.

Based on Bens comment I would guess they pull AI tools from product hunt and/or hacker news and post them, so I would recommend launching your products on those platforms first if you haven't already.

Someone else listed my site on it in the early days so I didn't pay, but it's a decent back link and I get around 50 visitors a day from it still, so not bad.

Yea do that if you have to, you can copy and paste the bugs into chatGPT and get good solutions almost all the time, sometimes you may have to consult Google or stack overflow.
