Q: google maps scraping limit
Hi, looking to purchase your software but i had a question, i have tried tons of tools to scrape google maps but the most i could ever scrape at a time is 200 usually. What are the limits to the amount of rows i could scrape if I give zip codes, or cities and some keywords, for example like landscapers. Thanks!

Sadly those limits are put in place by google so we don't have a way around them. I believe google maps is around 120 results at the moment and "google places" as i call it (the map pack results) has around 300 results. This limit is per search. What I recommend to customers is that they use the Mac/Beta clients and the new Google Quick scraper. This would be the fastest and most data for the time at the moment. Then you will need to break your area down into smaller areas which allow you to do more searches such as zip codes as your mentioned. Each search could have that max results of 120 so once the scrapes are completed you can just combine the data and remove the duplicates (using my free tool on the far or any database) and you will have a more complete dataset.
