Ok, that changes things a little bit. I would think $600 a month should entitle you to ad-free pages. When you contact them ask them if they have an API available. If not, we might need to see their terms of usage for the services you're paying for. Wouldn't want you to get your service cut off for scraping data. |

| reply to jayco437 We pay $575/month for a 30 vehicle listing. That is not to say we are entitled to anything. Just stating that we are a paying customer. I'm going to contact them about my options. (This whole thing came up because a potential customer had contacted me and asked about the low financing rates advertised on our inventory webpage. Well it was really the ad in the frame on our website. So I wanted to get rid of the ads.) |

| reply to adam9280 Are you paying for this service? Or is it free? Because if it's free it's because its paid for by the advertisers.
I would recommend upgrading to a paid version if they have one. Alternatively, you could try and find someone to do a screen scraping script for you. Or you could do all the manual labor of downloading each individual page, stripping out the advertising HTML/JS, and uploading the webpage to your server. Neither of those options will be cheap (either time, or money). |
