This project is a Python-based educational demonstration of how to scrape emails from web pages using Selenium and BeautifulSoup. The purpose of this project is to provide a hands-on learning experience for those interested in web scraping and data extraction.
The script navigates through Google search results, looking for LinkedIn profiles related to specific marketing tags. It then extracts email addresses found on these pages. The extracted emails are stored in a DataFrame along with the associated tag and country, and finally exported to a CSV file.
