Yelp - businesses listings scraper

Overview

The Yelp businesses listings scraper is a prebuilt sitemap designed to extract structured business listing data from yelp.com search result pages. It starts from search URLs, automatically navigates pagination, discovers business listings, and extracts detailed business information from each listing page. This sitemap extracts business listings data from yelp.com search results pages.

This scraper extracts business data, including business URL, business name, categories, rating, review count, address, phone number, website URL, images, and opening hours, plus pagination reference. The extracted data can be exported in structured formats such as CSV, Excel, or JSON, allowing it to be analysed, stored, or integrated into existing systems and workflows.

Yelp listings scraping is commonly used for B2B lead generation, lead database development and enrichment, and customer sentiment analytics.

This sitemap is preconfigured and ready to use with Web Scraper Cloud. You only need to provide Yelp search result URLs, and the scraper will automatically navigate listing pages and extract the defined business attributes.

Scrape yelp.com listing data. As start URLs provide:

search links

Limits

yelp.com limits pagination to a maximum of 24 pages. To avoid exceeding this limitation, we recommend refining search queries with additional parameters, such as a specific price range, to narrow the results.

Scraping Yelp.com

Yelp.com is using DataDome bot management service. DataDome will block popular open source frameworks like Scrapy, Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium, etc. Bot management services use methods, such as browser fingerprinting to detect automated access or bots that mask their identity to access the data in an unsupported manner. To successfully scrape data from Yelp.com, JavaScript rendering and a residential proxy service are required.

Is web scraping legal?

Web scraping is generally legal when collecting public data. Although lawful, site owners often dislike automated collection and may deploy bot management tools to block access. Using this data to add value is acceptable, whereas copying a site to clone it violates copyrights. However, scraping data behind a login can be 100% illegal if the site's Terms and Conditions prohibit web scraping or automated access.
