By the end of this tutorial, you will have a working Python script that extracts bol.com category and brand listings into structured records: product title, selling price in EUR, reference price, discount percentage, seller name, delivery promise, rating, and review count.
bol.com is an online marketplace serving the Netherlands and Belgium. Collecting listings manually is impractical at scale, while building a custom scraper requires handling anti-bot protections and residential proxy rotation.
