    Hey guys

    I web scraper and I'm scraping websites. The problem I have is whom to sell that data. Can anyone help me and give me some advice.

    Who I should sell specific data. Who are companies or businesses who buy scraped data. For example, I know that call centers are buying phone numbers (phone books) so they can call people and see products.

    Why are you doing anything without a well thought out business plan?

    Before you started who did you think your customers would be?

    Scraping data is easy, but you know why we don't all do it? because it's a crappy way to run a business.

    Call centres won't buy your lists because they buy legit lists for next to nothing and don't have to worry about falling foul of the authorities.

    Find a better way to use your programming skills.

    Info that is captured by visiting a website and parsing the HTML looking for information, in this case email addresses and phone numbers.
