  • How can I scrape for product reviews and ratings on e-commerce sites?

    Posted by Aridai Farzona on 11/15/2024 at 8:01 am

    Many e-commerce sites load reviews through AJAX or API calls. I inspect the network requests to pull review data directly from these sources.

    Using Scrapy or BeautifulSoup with pagination, I scrape multiple pages of reviews and aggregate them by product to analyze sentiment.

    For sites with multiple review categories, like features, durability, and value, I set up structured data models to store each review metric separately.

    If reviews are loaded dynamically, Playwright can load each page fully before scraping, ensuring that no reviews are missed.

    I add timestamps to scraped reviews to track how recent feedback is, which is helpful for analyzing trends over time.

    For text-heavy reviews, NLP tools like VADER or TextBlob allow me to analyze sentiment and categorize feedback.

    • Extracting star ratings along with text comments helps me correlate positive or negative sentiment with specific aspects of the product.

    If the site provides only a summary of reviews, I set up periodic scraping to capture updates and track changes in ratings over time.
