Project Overview
I am looking for an experienced web scraping / lead generation specialist to build a database of Malaysia-based (first) ecommerce websites that are NOT using major ecommerce platforms.
I am specifically interested in ecommerce websites that appear to be custom-built or where no major ecommerce platform can be detected.
What I am NOT looking for
Please exclude websites using common ecommerce platforms such as:
* Shopify
* WooCommerce
* Magento / Adobe Commerce
* SHOPLINE
* EasyStore
* BigCommerce
* Wix Ecommerce
* PrestaShop
* OpenCart
* Squarespace Commerce
* Other identifiable ecommerce platforms
A website should not be classified as custom-built simply because it looks customized.
For example, a heavily customized Shopify website is still Shopify and should be excluded.
Target Companies
The company should:
1. Be based in Malaysia
2. Have its own active ecommerce website
3. Allow customers to browse products and purchase/checkout online
4. Not use a major identifiable ecommerce platform
5. Preferably be an established ecommerce business with meaningful website traffic
Please prioritize larger or higher-traffic ecommerce websites where possible.
International Ecommerce Signal
I am particularly interested in companies that also sell internationally.
Please identify whether the website shows evidence of:
* International shipping
* Worldwide shipping
* Multiple shipping countries
* Country/region selector
* International storefronts
* Overseas markets
It is okay to mark this as Unknown if it cannot be determined.
Required Fields
Field Requirement
Company / Brand Name Required
Website Required
Product Category E.g. Fashion, Beauty, Electronics, Home, F&B
What They Sell Short 3 to 8 word description
Ecommerce Technology Custom-Built / Unknown
Technology Verification Briefly state how major ecommerce platforms were excluded
Estimated Website Traffic If available
International Shipping Yes / No / Unknown
International Markets Countries mentioned, if available
International Evidence E.g. “Worldwide Shipping”, “Ships to Singapore, Australia, US”
Company LinkedIn If available
Important: Technology Verification
Accuracy here is very important.
Before including a website, please check whether it is actually running on Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, SHOPLINE, EasyStore or another known ecommerce platform.
I understand that it may not always be possible to determine the underlying technology with 100% certainty.
In these cases, classify the website as:
Unknown - No Major Platform Detected
rather than claiming it is custom-built.
Please briefly explain the tools or methodology you would use to detect the ecommerce technology when applying.
Initial Test
I would like to start with a small paid test of 20 to 30 qualified websites.
If the quality and accuracy are good, this can become a much larger project and potentially expand into other countries.
Please include in your proposal:
1. Your experience with web scraping and ecommerce technology detection
2. How you plan to discover these websites
3. How you will determine whether a website uses Shopify/WooCommerce/Magento/etc.
4. How you would identify or estimate higher-traffic websites
5. Your price per 100 qualified leads
6. A few sample results if possible
The priority is quality and accuracy rather than simply producing a large number of websites.
