README.md should be updated

[ikus060]

The README file contains a lot of obsolete information. It's not easy to get started when the information provided is misleading.

1. Install prerequisites
Need to install extra packages to make install with pip work.

sudo apt-get install python-pip mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev libpython2.7-dev

missing in requirements
gdata and flask should be install too:

pip install gdata flask

Add a new sql file to create database and user.
createuser.sql:

CREATE DATABASE seocrawler;
CREATE USER 'seo'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'oes';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON seocrawler . * TO 'seo'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Then I ran the following command line to create the database and the user with right permissions.

cat createuser.sql | mysql -uroot -p

Run crawler
To run crawler, you need to execute with:
./run_seocrawler.py --database config.yaml --base_url http://fashionista.com

Run repporter
./run_seoreporter.py --database config.yaml

Thanks for reviewing the README. If you'd like to send a PR, I'd be happy to merge it. Otherwise, we're in no rush to update this tool since we're not using it at the moment. I'll try to get to it though. Thanks! :)

I've fork the project and made a lot of changes like for my own need.

Glad you're getting value from this project! If there's anything you'd like to contribute back, I'll be more than happy to merge it in! :)
