Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best proxy type for Amazon scraping?

Residential proxies are essential for Amazon scraping—datacenter proxies face immediate blocking. ISP proxies offer excellent speed with high trust levels. Mobile proxies work well but may be unnecessarily expensive. Use geographic diversity matching your target Amazon marketplaces (US IPs for amazon.com, UK IPs for amazon.co.uk).

How do I avoid Amazon's anti-bot detection?

Avoid Amazon detection by using quality residential proxies, implementing realistic request delays (5-15 seconds), maintaining consistent browser fingerprints within sessions, handling CAPTCHAs when they appear, rotating IPs between sessions, and varying request patterns. Never scrape at predictable intervals or uniform speeds.

What Amazon data can I extract?

Amazon scraping yields product titles, descriptions, and specifications, pricing including buy box and seller offers, review content with ratings and verified purchase status, seller information and ratings, inventory availability indicators, category rankings, and search results. Each data type may require different scraping strategies.

How do I scrape Amazon reviews at scale?

Review scraping requires careful pagination handling and anti-detection measures. Use residential proxies with proper rotation, implement delays between review page requests, handle the various review filtering options, and extract verified purchase indicators. Large-scale review extraction may require distributed infrastructure and patient pacing.

Can I use Amazon's API instead of scraping?

Amazon's Product Advertising API provides structured product data for affiliates, but with restrictions on competitive use cases. The API offers pricing, reviews, and product details, but access requires approval and has usage limits. Many price monitoring and competitive intelligence use cases aren't permitted, necessitating web scraping.

How do I scrape Amazon across multiple countries?

Each Amazon marketplace (US, UK, DE, JP, etc.) requires proxies from that region for accurate pricing and availability. Use geo-targeted residential proxies matching each marketplace. Handle different page layouts and languages, localized pricing formats, and marketplace-specific product availability. Consider currency and unit conversions.
