Hi,
I need a beginner level student assistant to help me gather some data. I will be creating 4 postings as I have a lot of links and need to get this done ASAP.
Basically, I'll send you 2500 url links and what I would need you to do is visit each url, find the full link to popup window, copy paste it next to each record in excel.
So here is how it works.
- I’ll send you 500 records at the time in excel
- you visit each one of those links
- find a link (I'll tell you later what to look for), this link should be on home page, so not much time spent finding the link.
- If the link opens a new popup window, using internet explorer, you simply right click somewhere on the popup, go to the properties and copy the link it gives you. You may need to use Firefox on some sites to get the link.
- If it opens a new window, even easier, just copy the full link
- paste the copied link next to the visited url
and that’s it, you do that for all 2500 records.
Again, this is a very basic project that if you are reading this, then you can do it. It may just be time consuming, so make sure you have the time and dedication to complete the project. No credit will be given to incomplete projects.
Budget is very small, but I’m only looking for someone with a very basic skills and time in their hands and need feedback. I will give good feedback. If you have the time, I'll have more similar projects for you.
check your schedule and make sure you do not have any emergencies in the next couple of weeks as I need this done ASAP and do not want to hear any kind of excuses to skip work.
even if you do 300 per day, you'll have enough time to complete this project on time.
Again, I can not say this enough, make sure you have the time to do this project.
agian, I'm posting 4 of these projects as I need the links ASAP as I have 10k links, make sure you submit your bid in all of the postings as I will choose different person to do each.
and no, you can not use script to get the links, each link is different and needs a human eye to find it. And if you think this is too much work, please don't send me any messages, again, project is for 2500 links.
Thanks!
