Result not recorded if a search term converges to a single entry #55

It appears that currently the scraper is not able to save results from search terms that only return one entry (which leads to that entry being displayed directly the UI instead of a list). This is quite inconvenient if you happen to have a list with different levels of specificality, where some terms will return a list while others will converge to a single business or location.

I can confirm. Sometimes there will be only 1 place at the map sometimes there will be exact keyword named place both will failure to be scraped.
