Instagram 'Following' List Data Scraping -- 2
$750-1500 USD
Paid on delivery
I need a freelancer who can gather the 'following' lists from Instagram for a large set of users. This project is centered around social media analysis and trend prediction.
Key Points:
- You will only be required to generate a list of followed accounts' IDs for each user that is provided
- The data you collect will be used to predict trends in user behavior and preferences
Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proficiency in data scraping, particularly from social media platforms
- Familiarity with Instagram's API and limitations
Further notes - I am very familiar with scraping in general myself. There are many obstacles with Instagram - namely, the endpoint where the 'following' list is found requires a logged in sessionid. I have a very large list of users (11 million overall) that I need this data found for. Honestly, I'd prefer to have the methodology to scrape this data rather than have it all scraped as a service. That way I can scale it myself and run it on future user sets. Ultimately, one of the following is what I'm looking for:
A) You have the know-how on how to get this data efficiently and already have a system set up for it, and can offer me a decent price for the 11 million users worth of data
B) You have the know-how and are willing to sell this information to me and help me set up a scalable system that I'll be integrating into all of my current systems <-- this is ideal
C) You have the know-how on how to bulk create burner Instagram accounts that I can use for the scraping myself. I already have a system built for scraping this endpoint, but it burns accounts quickly. If I had a scalable flow of accounts coming in, I could simply brute force this data. That, or if you can offer burner accounts for $0.01-$0.05 per account, I could perhaps just buy all of the accounts off of you that I need to brute force the data. <-- this is more ideal than A
Also - the data I'm after is *only* the account IDs of the followed accounts of each user. I don't need their URLs, or their thumbnails, follower counts, anything like that. Just a comprehensive list of account IDs that each user is following.
As a sample, please take the user 'mairacardi', account ID 9999895, and provide the full list of their followed account IDs. There should be 851 account IDs in this list.
Thanks!
