Efficiently Scrape Multiple Pages from Multiple URLs with Python's BeautifulSoup
Web scraping is an invaluable skill in the world of data analysis and content curation. In this guide, we’re going to tackle a common problem many developers face: scraping multiple pages from multiple URLs using Python's BeautifulSoup.
Understanding the Problem
You may have successfully scraped data from a single URL but found challenges when trying to extend this functionality across several URLs. The goal here is to efficiently gather data from multiple pages on various URLs without needing to rewrite similar code for each one.
Setting Up Your Environment
Before diving into the code, make sure you have the necessary modules installed. You'll need requests, BeautifulSoup, and pandas. You can install them using pip:
