💡 Tips & Best Practices

• Use a keyword for focused results. Since each run reads the current listing page for your chosen city and category, a keyword (compound name, district, or subway line) narrows results to what matters for your search.
• Filter to direct landlords when sourcing leads. Enable onlyLandlord to skip brokers and agencies and keep private-owner listings only.
• Use residential proxies from outside mainland China. 58.com can restrict traffic from outside China. The default proxy configuration uses Apify's residential proxy group for reliable access.
• Re-run on a schedule to track price changes. Since listings refresh frequently on 58.com, scheduling repeat runs for the same city, category, and keyword lets you spot new listings and price moves over time.

❓ FAQ

Does it get blocked by 58.com?

The Actor uses Apify's residential proxies by default to reduce blocking. If 58.com still serves a CAPTCHA or block page for a request, the Actor detects it, skips that page, and flags it in the output (captchaEncountered: true) instead of returning blocked content.

Does it extract private phone numbers?

No. 58.com protects landlord and broker phone numbers behind click-walls and SMS verification. The Actor returns seller names, compound names, and listing details instead.

How fresh is the data?

Each run fetches the current listing page directly from 58.com at run time, so results reflect what is live on the site at that moment for your chosen city, category, and keyword.

Are all categories supported?

The Actor covers both major 58.com real estate categories: ershoufang (for-sale / 二手房) and chuzu (rentals / 租房). Other 58.com classifieds categories (jobs, used cars, electronics) are not covered.
