Dear All,

Kindly need your help. I have a task to extract some data for multiple websites. I found out that it's possible to do with ImportXML in Google Docs. That would be superb but I'm a bit lost how to write the formula. An example, I need to extract the ranking number from the following website:
  • Website - https://www.similarweb.com/website/gazette.com
  • To extract the country (United States) ranking number = 12282
  • Formula I was using was "=importxml("http://www.similarweb.com/website/gazette.com","//div[@class='websiteRanks-valueContainer js-websiteRanksValue']")". However, it didn't work
​Kindly assist me!
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
