Expired Domain Web Crawler Needed

Paid on delivery
I am looking for a software application that can crawl a list of websites for expired domains (any domains with a status of 404). The crawler should crawl a list of inputted names via a source text file. The source text file would look like this, 1 domain name per line: [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] Once software grabs the source domains, it should fully crawl each site and report to a csv file any expired domains it finds. The format for the csv should be: domain where found, URL where found, expired domain An example line would be: [login to view URL],[login to view URL],[login to view URL] The crawler should use just one thread, and for the user agent, should just be chrome if that is possible. I plan to do a phase 2 later where the crawler will check an API to see if the expired domains are available for purchase, and also to add threads, proxies, and other features. This will all be phase 2 and 3. Right now, I just want phase 1 completed where it takes an input of "[login to view URL]" and then for domains it finds in 404 status, it should output "[login to view URL]" This needs to be desktop based running on Windows 10 Pro. It can run in Powershell or Python, and other languages are fine as well. For continued development, it would be beneficial to have it in Python, but any language you prefer is fine. Please include these with your bid: 1. Project Price in Full to do phase 1 2. Time to complete, since I am really needing this soon 3. What language you will be using 4. Any relevant experience you have with crawlers

Hi, I will be using python language to do this project. I work fast, and I will probably finish it in few hours, but there are always some small complications, so it will be take me maximum of 2 days. I have been web scraping since 4 months now, and I have scraped lots of different kind of websites. My approach for this task is to first check the website response. If it's 404 then we can stop there. If it doesn't say that then the program will get all the text that is presented on the webpage and then look for any terms which can tell us that it's an error. I think this should work general. Please contact me if you are interested
