PARSER FOR YOUTUBE

Video hosting YouTube is by far one of the most visited sites on the World Wide Web. Millions of videos are published here daily, which are viewed by hundreds of millions of people. Of course, such an array of information cannot fail to interest marketers and content managers, which is why the YouTube parser is a very popular type of parsers. The parsers developed by AVADA MEDIA allow you to solve a huge number of tasks and do it quickly.

The difficulty lies in the fact that parsing videos is a more serious task than the usual collection of data from pages in HTML-format, and it takes much longer. Therefore, if you need high-quality YouTube parsing, it is best to contact the professional developers of our company. We have vast experience and skills in developing parsers for various Internet resources, including YouTube and other video hosting sites.

The YouTube parser helps to collect links from this video hosting, parses search results at the user’s request, collects information about channels and their authors, including contact information. The most popular form of YouTube scraping is keyword scraping. This is a quick way to search for all videos you are interested in and their metadata by keyword or phrase contained in the title or description of the video. The user only needs to set the required request, after which the YouTube parser will do everything independently and quickly. In this case, you can set various additional parameters – for example, search only for videos created before, after, and whether between certain dates. Such a search is also possible manually, but it will almost always be incomplete and take considerable time.

Parsing YouTube takes place in several stages. The first collects the following information about the video, presented in the HTML code of the page:

• video title;
• link to the header image;

• description of the video with all the links presented in it;
• the name of the YouTube user who posted the video;
• date of placement;
• number of views, likes and comments;
• video code;
• link to his page.

At the second stage, the received data is saved and, if necessary, edited. It is possible to save the collected data in a tabular format for processing in Excel. Initially, it is saved to a CSV file, which can then also be imported into the site’s CMS or used in another way. This information can be used for marketing research and trend identification, for solving various analytical problems, and for planning your own YouTube activity.

Another important goal of YouTube scraping is to get direct video links to be inserted into your site’s HTML to play the video right on it. Moreover, the parser can be configured in such a way that links to videos from Youtube are added to the places provided for them automatically. This is very convenient for bloggers who want to post their videos or other media content of interest to their readers from the Youtube site to their blog in an automatic manner.

It is enough to configure the parser to collect the necessary data, and it will automatically collect links and place them in the right places. This method of placement is also suitable for any periodic updates of video content: old links to relevant videos will be automatically replaced with new ones, you will not need to do anything for this, except for the initial setting of the Youtube parser for automatic parsing with a certain period of time.

Another option for using the Youtube parser is parsing video authors. This contingent is of great interest to advertisers, marketers and other authors in order to establish mutually beneficial cooperation. The collected contacts can be used in the future for communication and sending commercial offers.

Youtube SEO parsing is also possible, which is used by search engine optimization specialists and content managers to parse search suggestions. They can then be used in your own videos for better promotion. It is also possible to parse comments and their authors on Youtube for the purpose of retargeting for social networks.
