Website Contact Details Scraper: for sales outreach

📇 What is Website Contacts?

This extractor reads a list of homepages and returns one entry each with its public contact details: email (even when hidden behind Cloudflare protection, written as name [at] domain [dot] com or encoded as HTML entities), phone line and accounts on YouTube, TikTok, GitHub, Pinterest, XING, Threads and Bluesky. Imprint, about and team sections are read too, so you need not know where a firm keeps them. One input field, no browser, no proxy.

• Lead enrichment: add emails, phones and social links to a list of company domains from your CRM
• Sales prospecting: turn a list of agencies, shops or suppliers into contactable leads
• Partnerships and PR: find the press or hello@ address of every site on your outreach list
• Data cleaning: check which websites in a list are unreachable, blocked or have no contact page

✨ Why use this Actor?

• ✅ Decodes hidden emails: Cloudflare-protected, [at]/[dot] and HTML-entity addresses are decoded, and each one says where it was found
• ✅ Looks where contacts live: follows the site's own contact, imprint, about and team links, up to maxPagesPerSite pages
• ✅ A reason for every empty row: status says ok, no-contacts-found, no-contact-page, blocked, robots-disallowed, unreachable or http-error
• ✅ Fair by default: respects robots.txt unless you switch robots off
• ✅ Pay for results only: websites with nothing found, blocked or unreachable are not charged

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

JavaScript (npm install apify-client):

❓ FAQ

Why is a website's row empty?

Its status and statusDetail say why: the site blocked automated visitors, it has no contact page, its robots.txt disallows us, or it did not answer. You are not charged for it.

Does it guess emails?

No. It returns only addresses that are on the website, with the page they were found on.

Does it run a browser?

No. It reads the HTML of the pages, which keeps runs light and cheap; sites that build their contact page only with JavaScript may return fewer contacts.

Is it legal to use Website Contacts?

The Actor reads only public pages of the websites you list and respects robots.txt by default. Emails and phone numbers can be personal data: if you use them for outreach, follow the privacy and marketing rules that apply to you (for example the GDPR and anti-spam laws).
