About Gumtree Search Result Scraper
Need to pull data from Gumtree for market research, price tracking, or job listings? I built this scraper because I got tired of manually copying data from page after page. You just give it a search URL from Gumtree.com—like for "used bikes in London" or "IT jobs in Manchester"—and it handles the rest. It automatically clicks through all the pages of results so you get everything, not just the first page. For each listing, it grabs the key details: title, price, location, the full description, the listing URL, and the date it was posted. I run it to monitor local prices for items I'm selling and to aggregate job postings from different searches into one spreadsheet. It outputs clean, structured data in JSON, CSV, or Excel, ready to drop into your analysis. It's straightforward, reliable, and saves hours of manual work. Perfect for analysts, recruiters, or anyone who needs to systematically track what's being listed on one of the UK's biggest classifieds sites.
