Sample Result



Captcha Issue

Sometimes google captcha can be an issue, because google rightfully detects the bot and tries to block it, there are ways that I've already tried to avoid captcha like :

  • Using different user-agent headers and IP in a round-robin algorithm.
    • It works but it gives a lot of garbage URLs that are not of any use and in addition to that it's also slow, so I removed that feature.
  • Using free proxy servers
    • Free proxy servers are too slow and they often get blocked due to the fact that a lot of people use these free proxy servers for scraping.
  • Sleep function
    • This works up to some extent so I have incorporated it in the code.
  • Tor Network
    • Nope, doesn't work every time I tried it, a beautiful captcha was presented, so I removed this functionality too.

Solution
  • The best solution that I have found is to sign up for a proxy service and use it, it gives good results with less garbage URL's but it can be slow sometimes.
  • Use a VPN.

Contribute
  • Report Bugs
  • Add new features and functionalities
  • Add more effective google dorks (which actually works)
  • Workaround the captcha issue
  • Create a docker image(basically work on portability and usability)
