Whether you're just starting to build a web scraper from scratch and wondering what you're doing wrong because your solution isn't working, or you've already been working with crawlers for a while and are stuck on a page that gives you an error saying you're a bot, you can't go any further, keep reading.
Anti-bot solutions have evolved in recent years. More and more websites are introducing security measures: from simple ones, such as filtering IP addresses according to their geolocation, to advanced ones based on in-depth analysis of browser parameters and behavioral analysis. All this makes web scraping content more difficult and costly than a few years ago. Nevertheless, it is still possible. Here I highlight a few tips that you may find helpful.
