For frequently updated weather data, I use Selenium to refresh the page and capture new information. It’s slower but ensures I get real-time updates.

Pagination is tricky, but I usually rely on detecting the “Next Page” button’s link. This ensures my scraper doesn’t miss any reviews, even if they’re spread across multiple pages.

One challenge I’ve faced is handling frequent page updates. Using tools like Selenium with short delays helps capture the most recent data accurately without overwhelming the website.

I use the requests library to download images directly after extracting their URLs. It’s fast and simple for static sites.

Adding pagination functionality to the Shutterfly scraper is essential for collecting all available product data. Products are often distributed across multiple pages, and automating navigation through the “Next” button ensures a comprehensive dataset. Random delays between page requests mimic human browsing behavior, reducing the risk of detection. With proper pagination handling, the scraper can capture a complete list of products, enabling better analysis of pricing trends. This feature is particularly useful for gathering data across various categories and promotional periods.
