How It Works

1. Builds a Google Maps search URL for your searchQuery + location.
2. Opens the page in a stealth Firefox browser (Camoufox) with residential proxy routing to avoid detection.
3. Scrolls the search results panel to load all available listings.
4. Visits each listing and extracts: name, phone, address, category, rating, review count, and website field.
5. Classifies the website field — any business with a real owned domain is excluded.
6. Calculates a lead score for each qualifying business.
7. Returns results sorted by lead score, highest first.

Tips

• Narrow your niche — hair salons returns more targeted leads than beauty.
• Run per-city — for large metros, break into boroughs or districts (e.g. Brooklyn New York USA).
• Use includeWeakWebsite: true for warm leads who already know they need a better web presence.
• Combine with an email finder — use phone numbers plus business name to find owner emails.
• Export to CSV — download results from the Apify dataset as CSV for CRM import.

---

Limitations

• Accuracy depends on Google Maps listing completeness; some businesses may not display a phone number even if they have one.
• Google Maps periodically changes its page structure; if results drop unexpectedly, check for actor updates.
• Residential proxies are strongly recommended to avoid CAPTCHAs and rate limiting.
• Actor cannot bypass explicit CAPTCHA challenges if Google triggers them mid-run.
