Scraping LinkedIn Posts for Keyword Insights from Executives
If i have a list of 1,000 executives, what's the best way to scrape their linkedin posts to see if they mention key words important to my company
We recommend using Clay to search LinkedIn profiles for target keywords. Here's a simplified process: 1. Input the full names and company names of your executives into Clay. 2. Clay will find the corresponding LinkedIn profiles. 3. Customize your search by specifying which LinkedIn data columns you want to search (e.g., posts, about section, experience). 4. Use Clay to search for your important keywords within these profiles. This method allows you to efficiently analyze LinkedIn data for multiple profiles without manual scraping. For a detailed guide and free template, you can check out our Claybook on this topic. If you need further assistance, please request human help by clicking on "Talk to a person" in this chat.
somtimes clay integration find recent post does not work properly, so you can use b2b enrichment api to scrape linkedin posts by user ..
We don't recommend using external B2B enrichment APIs to scrape LinkedIn posts, as this could violate LinkedIn's terms of service. Instead, here are some alternatives: 1. Try using Clay's "Find Recent Posts on LinkedIn" feature again, as it uses public web scraping and may work better at different times. 2. Use Clay Enrichments with a LinkedIn URL or email as input. This can help find mobile numbers and social URLs, which might lead to more accessible content. 3. Consider using Claygent, our built-in AI research tool with web access. Advanced AI models like Argon or OpenAI's GPT 4 often yield the best results for finding recent posts.
