Google Maps Scraper

You can scrape (or "copy-paste at scale") any web data that's publicly available - which holds true for most websites, including Google Maps. Scraping Google Maps data is therefore legal, as long as you respect intellectual property rights and personal data regulations. To learn more about laws that regulate web scraping industry, head over to our blog post from Apify's legal expert on the subject.

Since Google Places API has become quite expensive for an average user, many alternatives have emerged. Google Maps Scraper is one of them. This scraper gets the same data as Google Places API would, but for a better price. This tool will easily export Google Maps data into Excel, HTML table or JSON.

For this, you can try out a no-code tool that's been around for 5 years, Google Maps Scraper. Using a simplified version of this tool, Easy Google Maps Scraper, you can get up to 2,000 basic google maps results for free (contact details, ranking, number of reviews and URLs). If you also want to include scraping images, reviews, and additional info, getting 1,000 full google maps results can range from $2.50 to $35.

You can either build a scraper tool of your own in any programming language or use an existing solution. Some existing solutions offer a free trial, such as our Google Maps Scraper and they are quite easy to get the hang of. A good scraper should be able to copy the data you see on the website and save it in a document of a universal format, usually a JSON, Excel spreadsheet, or HTML.

You don't need coding skills to scrape Google Maps if you're using ready-made no-code Google Maps scrapers from Apify Store. To scrape Google Maps without coding, just follow these simple steps:

1. Go to Apify Store, select your Google Maps scraper, and click 'Try for free'.
2. Type the city and place you want to scrape in the input field.
3. Begin data collection by clicking 'Start'.

Yes, though the data has to be in machine-readable format. Apify platform stores data in universal formats such as JSON, XML or CSV which makes it easy to plug in extracted Google Maps data into other apps. The platform also allows seamless data integration across various integration tools such as Zapier, Make, Airbyte, Keboola and others. To make this happen, all you need to know is the dataset's ID.

The easiest way would be to find a tool created specifically to extract Google Maps Reviews. A good google reviews scraper such as the one in Apify Store should be able to export both high and low ranking reviews of every place as well as their translations into various formats, including Excel. However, scraping personal data of reviewers is not advised as it does not comply with the guidelines of ethical web scraping.

Yes, but with caveats. Public reviews posted on Google Maps often contain personal information such as a name, profile image, review ID. All that information combined could be potentially used to identify the reviewer - which is protected by GDPR in the EU and by other laws around the world, and for a good reason. \n\nYou should only scrape personal data if you have a legitimate reason to do so, and you should also factor in Google's Terms of Use. We are aware of that and built our Google Reviews Scraper in a way to be able to avoid extracting personal data. You can read the basics of ethical web scraping in our expert piece on the legality of web scraping.
