Google Search Results - link url isn't returning properly, among others

[smithellis]

When I return results from a google scrape, some values are now incorrect or missing. 'domain' is consistently returned as "b' '", for instance. 'link' is now regularly 'None'. link_type, serp_id, snippet and visible link all seem ok. Was there a recent change that might have caused this, or is something borked on my end?

Thanks.

@smithellis you can fix it in parsing.py located in this package. Seems like google was changed markup.

                'link': 'div.r > a:first-child::attr(href)',

Thanks - I had actually tried updating the parsing.py file, and used: 'link': 'h3.LC20lb > a:first-child::attr(href)' -- But that didn't get it. I changed it in the google search area, under us_ip and de_ip. Either my selector is hot garbage or something is borked.

I just realized my bug report is like...the worst.

I am using the version from Git - 0.2.4
I am running it in a virtualenv with Python 3.5.3
I'm using this inside a Flask application, but can confirm the issue outside the Flask app.

Hope that makes me less of a nuisance and more of a helper - I like this app.

@smithellis

as I see in russian side of google the markup is:

<a href="http://www.cambridgeenglish.org.ru/test-your-english/adult-learners/">
    <h3 class="LC20lb">Title</h3>
    <br>
</a>
