SCRAPING OF SOCIAL MEDIA DATA USING PYTHON-3 AND PERFORMING DATA ANALYTICS USING MICROSOFT POWER BI.

Abstract

The manifestation of humanity is driven by fulfillment of desires. These desires are satiated by the society and its resources. But after the advent of social media the societal boundaries have shrunken but desires haven’t, hence the desires are now fulfilled through social media. The aforementioned phenomenon was recognized by the business plutocrats very early and have started to satisfy human desires using social media as a tool. But before satisfying the desires, the businesses needs to identify the specific desires of an individual. The identification of specific desires/needs will help the marketing agencies to develop user specific marketing strategies. These desires are explicitly available through the expressions of sentiments in the social media. The sentiment analysis can provide an insight to the desires of an individual. These patterns and insights helps the businesses to market their product to the right person. The sentiments and expressions can be captured using the scraping technique. The aforesaid points highlight’s the course of study followed by this paper and it is to perform data analytics of the social media data scraped using python.
