Yell Scraper [$1.2/1K] | UK Business Leads

Yell Scraper - UK Business Listings, Phones & Emails

Turn Yell.com searches into UK business lead lists, with public email addresses when you need them.

How It Works

Looking for a Yell scraper or a practical Yell.com API alternative? Enter a business type and a UK location, or paste Yell search-result URLs. The Actor returns one row per business with name, category, phone, website, address, service area, rating, review count, opening hours and the listing URL.

Enable Find business emails from websites and the Actor also opens each business's own site (homepage, then its contact page) and extracts public email addresses - the field Yell itself does not publish. That turns the same search into an outreach-ready lead list.

Use the dataset for UK lead generation, cold outreach, local SEO audits, territory planning and CRM enrichment. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull results through the Apify API. Start with one search, then pay from $1.20 per 1,000 business listings.

What You Get

• Business name, category and Yell listing URL
• Phone, website and service-area address

FAQ

Are email addresses included?

Yes, when Find business emails from websites is enabled. Yell search results do not contain emails, so the Actor reads them from each business's own public website: mailto: links, structured data, Cloudflare-obfuscated addresses and visible page text. Coverage depends on what the business publishes - trades that only offer a contact form will have an empty email.

Can I search several towns?

Run each location separately or use a broad region. Schedule repeat runs to cover multiple areas.

What if a business has no rating?

The rating and review fields are left empty when Yell does not publish them.

What if a business has no website?

The website field is empty and no email lookup is attempted for that listing.
