How It Works

Bazaraki renders its search and detail pages server-side with rich, schema.org-annotated HTML. This actor fetches the HTML directly via got-scraping and parses it with cheerio — no browser needed. GET https://www.bazaraki.com/search/?q=tesla&page=1 GET https://www.bazaraki.com/

Listing pages return 60 cards each. Bazaraki caps results at page 500 (max ~30k ads per filter set).

Notes

• attributes is a catch-all map — keys depend on category. Cars have Year/Mileage/Gearbox/..., real estate has Bedrooms/Area/Floor/..., phones have Brand/Model/Storage/.... Same shape, different keys.
• price is null for "POA", free, or missing prices. Raw text is in priceText.
• Phone numbers are not extracted — Bazaraki masks them behind a login-gated /phone_check/ endpoint.
• scrapeDetails: false gives you ~⅓ the fields but is ~60× faster (listing-only).
• The site caps pagination at page 500 regardless of how many results match. Narrow your filter for full coverage.

---

Use Cases

• Market research — car prices by model/year, apartment rents by district
• Lead generation — find active sellers in a category/city
• Price tracking — re-run periodically and diff prices over time
• Inventory feeds — pull your competitors' listings
• Real estate analytics — geo-cluster listings with latitude/longitude
• Dealership monitoring — filter by sellerIsBusiness: true

---

Cost & Performance

• Listing-only (scrapeDetails: false): ~0.002 CU per 100 ads (≈1 request per 60 ads).
• Full enrichment (scrapeDetails: true): ~0.012 CU per 100 ads (≈61 requests per 60 ads).
• Concurrency 3 + 500ms delay = ~15-25s per 100 enriched ads.

Residential proxy is optional; datacenter proxy is typically enough.

FAQ

Is this a Bazaraki API alternative?

Bazaraki.com has no official public API. This actor is an unofficial Bazaraki API alternative — it fetches and parses the site's server-rendered HTML so you get the same listing data programmatically as structured JSON.

Can I scrape Bazaraki without login?

Yes. The actor reads public search and detail pages directly with got-scraping, so no Bazaraki account or login is required. (Phone numbers stay masked because Bazaraki gates them behind a login-only endpoint.)

How do I export Bazaraki listings to CSV or JSON?

Every run writes to an Apify dataset that you can download or export as CSV, JSON, Excel or XML, or pull through the dataset API — making it a simple Bazaraki data export pipeline.

Can I scrape Bazaraki car listings and real estate data?

Yes. Use categoryPaths for cars, motorbikes, apartments, houses, land and more, or searchQueries for keywords — ideal for Bazaraki car listings scraping and real estate data extraction across any Cyprus district.
