How It Works

1. Search — Searches Google Maps for businesses matching your queries
2. Extract — Visits each business listing to get name, address, phone, rating, website, and more
3. Enrich — Scans each business website for email addresses and social media links
4. Output — Saves all data to the dataset in a flat, easy-to-use format

Use Cases

• Lead generation — Build targeted contact lists for sales outreach
• Sales prospecting — Find business emails and phone numbers by industry and location
• Market research — Analyze businesses, ratings, and categories in specific areas
• Competitor analysis — Map competitors and their online presence
• Local SEO — Audit business listings and contact information

Tips

• Search query format: Use natural language like "restaurants in New York" or "plumbers near Chicago, IL"
• Specific queries work better: "Italian restaurants in Manhattan" yields more relevant results than just "restaurants"
• Deep enrichment: Disable deepEnrichment if you only need Google Maps data (name, phone, address, rating) — this makes the scraper significantly faster
• Deduplication: When using multiple queries that may overlap, results are automatically deduplicated by Google Place ID

Limitations

• Google Maps shows a maximum of ~120 businesses per search area
• Some businesses don't have websites, so email extraction won't work for those
• Email addresses are extracted from publicly visible website content only
• Social media links are found by scanning website HTML for known social media URLs
• Results depend on Google Maps' search relevance for your query

FAQ

How many businesses can I scrape per run? You can scrape up to 100 businesses per search query. Use multiple queries to cover more businesses.

Does this actor need cookies or login? No. Google Maps search results are publicly accessible without authentication.

Why are some email fields empty? Not all businesses have websites, and not all websites display email addresses publicly. The scraper checks the main page and common contact pages (e.g., /contact, /about).

Can I search in languages other than English? Yes, set the language parameter to your preferred language code (e.g., es for Spanish, fr for French).

How long does a typical run take? A search for 20 businesses with email enrichment typically takes 2-5 minutes. Without enrichment, it's about 1-2 minutes.
