Title: Forum research. Suggestions please.
Post by: CHRISBIN702 on November 08, 2017, 03:48:53 AM
I have an assignment. We all know the forums search is not the best way to acquire large amounts of data. Is there any code or api that would make the below assignment more possible?

Here is my assignment,

1. btct research.
Please, collect all threads from btct regarding affiliate marketing/affiliate programs/referral programs from the past year in a google spreadsheet
2. Affiliate forums research.
- find top 5 affiliate forums (blackhatseo, warrior forum etc)
- collect all threads from there regarding bitcoin/ICO/crypto for the last year in a google spreadsheet

In regards to the first question, i don't know how to get all information out of BTCT but i do know how to search for it:

Use the google search on the forum and use the following query
Code:
affiliate * OR referral

* you use when you want it to search for everything with the name affliate X. So affliate marketing and affliate programs
OR command is used to let it search for affliate or refferal.

If you need more, read it from here

It sounds as if what you want to do is data miniung. You could search that topic on Google, or Packt have a few ebooks on the subject

Thanks for the link. Every time I try Python I come to the realization that beyond HTML and BBC, I'm not a coder.
