Went looking in the forums for information regarding scraping listings. Ideally we’d like to scrape from Google Local not Facebook. Does anyone know if there’s an add on or any other utility that allows scraping Google Local? I did a quick search and note that there are some companies that will scrape Google for a fairly inexpensive fee. Is this my best option? IF I can get them in CSV or Excel format how do I import in mass into GD.

Thanks

It is an option but probably against the terms of conditions of Google Local.
Social Importer does not scrape, but only imports some details of one selected listing at the time.
To import a CSV, have a look at https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-export/

Thanks
