Fields you get

A search page carries a list of results, each with a title, a link and usually a price or a snippet. Paginate with the site’s own page parameter and stop when a page repeats.

What breaks, and the fix

Of the failures since 14 Aug 2026, the site answered:

403: 12.5% of failures A 403 is the site refusing the exit. Set the country the successful calls use and retry once; a second 403 means the URL itself is protected.
0: 8.6% of failures A status of 0 is a request that never got an answer inside the timeout. Retry once with the JavaScript token if the pattern needs a browser.
591, 529: 72.9% of failures together A 5xx is the site failing, not the fetch. Retry after a minute.

Run it on a schedule

Search is the expensive side of a site. Keep the query list short, run it on a cadence through the Crawler with a callback, and fetch afterwards only the result pages you need. The median answer on this site is 12.8s.
