Price comparison sites (e.g., Google Shopping or Shopzilla) offer the best product deals through a combination of methods, one of which is web scraping. To collect product data (prices, descriptions, and availability) from various online retailers at scale, price comparison site providers employ various scraping tools.
As a result, online shoppers can browse the best deals on their desired product (iPhone 15, for example) and compare them all in one place.
