Google shopping
Hi
New to the whole web scraping thing so looking for some pointers. I do not have a background in coding but looking to scrape information for eccoms purposes. Been trying a couple of Actors to scrap pricing on google ads but coming across a few issues.
1. Most appear to scrap from the US and I am based in the UK, is there a way to change this to google shopping uk/any suggestions of actors to use?
2. Is there a recommended way to search for the product info, when using part number find a lot of incorrect information is scrapped but when using barcode not getting any results.
Thanks for your help.

Hello, Crawlee is a library for developers so it makes sense to dig into if you want to try to learn coding. If you really only care about results, it would be better to write into the Issues of the actor on Apify or you can ask for advice on #💻hire-freelancers . But generally:
1. Use the google.co.uk domain and if you can, select GB residential proxy
2. Try it manually on the website and then replicate that in the scraper
