❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

📌 Does this scraper bypass the 120-result limit on Google Maps?

Yes! Standard browser searches on Google Maps stop displaying results after scrolling through 120 places. This Actor uses an intelligent recursive spatial tiling engine that automatically divides target regions into micro-quadrants, capturing all businesses across the entire city, state, or postal code.

✉️ How does email & social media extraction work?

When extractEmails is enabled (true), the scraper automatically visits each business's official website and candidate contact subpages (/contact, /about, /team) in real-time. It extracts verified company emails, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, TikTok, and YouTube links while filtering out dummy template emails and tracking scripts.

🛡️ Do I need to configure or pay for proxies?

No! The scraper is engineered with direct Chrome TLS browser impersonation and automated session handling. It connects 100% directly without requiring external proxy subscriptions or complex setups.

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape Google Maps data?

Yes. Web scraping is legal when extracting publicly available commercial business data (business names, public phone numbers, addresses, ratings, and website URLs). Always ensure compliance with local communication laws (such as GDPR or CAN-SPAM) when sending cold outreach campaigns.

📥 What export formats are supported?

You can download your scraped leads with one click in CSV, Excel (XLSX), JSON, JSONL, or sync live data directly to Google Sheets, Zapier, and Make.com.
