<h3 style="color: #1a1a2e; margin-bottom: 15px;">How This Tool Works</h3>
<p style="color: #666; line-height: 1.7;">
Our scrapeability checker analyzes several factors that affect data extraction difficulty:
</p>
<ul style="color: #666; margin-top: 15px; padding-left: 20px; line-height: 1.8;">
<li><strong>JavaScript Rendering</strong> — Whether the site requires a full browser to load content</li>
<li><strong>Rate Limiting</strong> — How aggressively the site blocks automated requests</li>
<li><strong>Authentication</strong> — Whether login is required to access data</li>
<li><strong>Data Structure</strong> — How consistently the data is formatted</li>
<li><strong>robots.txt</strong> — The site's crawling policies</li>
</ul>
