Retrieving Specific Data From Website Through Excel

I am trying to do something very similar to the below existing example: reference problem With one small exception, I need to pull only the rating and # of reviews for this listing

Solution 1:

This code will retrieve the two pieces of information you requested and place them on the activesheet

Sub test()
    my_url = "http://www.yelp.com/biz/if-boutique-new-york"
    Set html_doc = CreateObject("htmlfile")
    Set xml_obj = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")

    xml_obj.Open "GET", my_url, False
    xml_obj.send
    html_doc.body.innerhtml = xml_obj.responseText
    Set xml_obj = Nothing

    Set Results = html_doc.body.getElementsByTagName("i")
    For Each itm In Results
        If InStr(1, itm.outerhtml, "star-img", vbTextCompare) > 0 Then
            numb_stars = itm.getAttribute("title")
            Exit For
        Else
        End If
    Next

    Set Results = html_doc.body.getElementsByTagName("span")
    For Each itm In Results
        If InStr(1, itm.outerhtml, "reviewCount", vbTextCompare) > 0 Then
            numb_rev = itm.innertext
            Exit For
        Else
        End If
    Next

    ActiveCell = numb_stars
    ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0) = numb_rev
End Sub
