Many developers earn passive income by sharing their Actors on the Apify Store, but the exact earnings depend on usage and user subscriptions. You can make anything from a few bucks to a hundreds of dollars per month. The amount of money you can make from hosting spiders on the Apify platform varies based on factors like the complexity of your Actors and the demand for the data they provide.
To give you a more specific answer, last month we paid out more than $100K in total to community Actors' developers. You can read about the journeys from two of our them - Caleb David or Tuğkan Cengiz.
The datasets in the output are available in multiple formats, including JSON, XML, CSV, HTML, and RSS. You can download your data, export it using an API or plug it into other apps.
Yes. Your Scrapy spider can be connected with almost any cloud service or web app thanks to integrations on the Apify platform. You can integrate with Make, Zapier, Slack, LangChain, Airbyte, GitHub, Google Sheets, Google Drive, and more. Or you can use webhooks to carry out an action whenever an event occurs, e.g. get a notification whenever your new Actor successfully finishes a run.
Yes. You can start the scraper, start, create, delete tasks, run them synchronously, start builds, get logs, create webhooks, get datasets, monitor your Scrapy spider using an API. You can also access key-value stores, request queues and user data. API can be accessed with Python, Node.js, and directly with Endpoints.
Yes. You can do so by either republishing your Scrapy spider from Zyte to the Apify Store (See monetization process here) or by picking custom web scraping projects from our Discord.
From Discord, you can provide scraping services for requests coming to the specialized channel. You will be the one communicating with the customer, setting deadlines and deliverables for their case. From Store, your published Actor acts as a web scraping tool rather than web scraping service. You will be only responsible for its maintenance and improvements. However, even in this case you can provide web scraping as a service if potential users contact you with requests to customize your existing Actor or to build them a new one.
