Website Contact Scraper – Emails, Phones, Socials

Website Contact Scraper turns a list of websites into contact rows. For every site it returns the email addresses, phone numbers (validated, in E.164 format) and social media profiles on 14 networks — LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, XING, Telegram, WhatsApp, Threads, GitHub, Snapchat and Discord — plus one primary email and primary phone ready for your CRM, the people named on the site with their job titles, and a mail-server check for every email.

Paste a list of domains, click Start, and get one clean row per website. The Actor finds the contact, imprint, about and team pages by itself, reads them over fast plain HTTP and switches to a real Chrome browser only when a site needs it. You pay $6 per 1,000 websites — only for websites where contacts were found. People, job titles, email checks and browser pages are included in that price.

What can Website Contact Scraper do?

• 📧 Email extractor: mailto: links, plain text, Cloudflare-protected addresses, info [at] example [dot] com spellings and schema.org data; placeholders like max@muster.de or name@example.com are dropped
• 📞 Phone numbers you can dial: every number is validated with Google's libphonenumber and returned as E.164 (+493080951000); fax numbers, dates, prices and order numbers are left out
• 🔗 Social profiles on 14 networks: company pages and profiles only — share buttons, video embeds and duplicate spellings are filtered out and URLs are normalised
• 👤 People and job titles: managing directors and owners from the imprint, team-page cards ("Jane Doe – Head of Sales") and schema.org data, linked to their personal email and LinkedIn profile when the site shows them; customer quotes and menu text are filtered out
• ✅ Email check: for every address, whether its domain accepts mail (MX record), which provider runs it (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, IONOS …), free mailbox or company domain, generic or personal
• 🌐 Real browser when needed: sites that build their content with JavaScript or turn away simple requests are opened again in Chrome, automatically, at no extra cost
• 🏢 Company name: the legal name with its legal form (GmbH, Ltd, Inc …) from the imprint
• ⭐ Primary email and phone: the site's own general address (info@, contact@, kontakt@ …) and main number in two simple columns
• 🧭 Finds the right pages: reads the homepage, then the Contact, Impressum / Imprint / Legal notice and About pages in English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Dutch, and tries /contact or /kontakt when the menu is built with JavaScript
• 📋 One row per website: everything merged and de-duplicated per domain — no page-by-page rows to clean up
• 💸 Fair pricing: one price per website, all features included; unreachable sites, blocked sites and sites without any contact data are free
• 🤖 Ready for automation: Apify API, scheduling, webhooks, integrations (Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets) and the Apify MCP server for AI agents

How to scrape contact details from a list of websites

1. Click Try for free (an Apify account is free).
2. Paste your domains or URLs into Websites, one per line. https:// is optional, duplicates are removed.
3. Keep Max pages per website at 5 (enough for most sites) or raise it for large sites. Leave Real browser on Auto, Find people and Check email domains on.
4. Click Start. Results appear in the Output tab while the run is going.
5. Export the table to your CRM or spreadsheet, or connect it to Google Sheets, Make or Zapier.

Input example

{
  "urls": ["fastly.com", "https://www.ellaskitchen.co.uk", "adac.de"],
  "maxPagesPerSite": 5,
  "defaultCountry": "",
  "browser": "auto",
  "findPeople": true,
  "verifyEmails": true
}

defaultCountry is optional: a two-letter code (DE, US, GB …) for phone numbers written without a country prefix. When it is empty, the country comes from the domain ending (.de, .co.uk …) or the page language.

browser: auto (default) reads every site over plain HTTP and opens it in Chrome only when the site blocks simple requests, builds its content with JavaScript, or shows no email and no phone without it. off never uses the browser (fastest), always uses it for every site (slowest). The price is the same in every mode.

Measured results

We ran the Actor on 100 websites picked at random from the Tranco top-300,000 ranking that it had never seen during development (a real-world mix: companies, shops, universities, news sites, forums, parked and dead domains). 71 could be reached; 52 gave contact data and would have been charged — 37 with at least one email, 26 with a phone number and 38 with social profiles, and 11 with named people (41 people in total, each checked by hand: no menu text, product names or customer quotes). The other 48 were dead, behind a captcha, or showed no contact data at all (free). 35 sites were opened in the browser automatically; the 100 sites took about 4 minutes.

What the automatic browser adds, measured on the same 100 sites:

	Browser off	Browser auto (default)
Sites reached	64	71
Sites with an email	28	37
Sites with a phone	21	26
Sites with contacts (charged)	43	52
Run time	44 s	4 min

We also ran 30 of these sites side by side with the most popular page-based contact scraper in the Store (10 pages per site, its default settings otherwise):

	Website Contact Scraper	Page-based scraper
Sites with an email found	19 of 30	13 of 30
Email addresses found	72	59
Valid phone numbers	45 (all E.164)	42, plus 267 "uncertain" values — mostly dates, prices and order numbers
Social profile links	72	78
People with job title	18 (included)	0 (a paid add-on)
Run time	71 s	108 s
Price for the 30 sites	$0.15 (25 sites with contacts)	$0.45 (222 pages + start fee)

The page-based scraper reads more pages per site, so it returns a few more social links; the browser fallback is why we find email on more sites.

How much does it cost to scrape contacts from websites?

Pay per event: $6 per 1,000 websites with contacts ($0.006 per website). The price is per website, not per page, so reading 5 or 20 pages of a site costs the same. People, job titles, email checks and pages opened in the browser are included. No subscription, no monthly fee, no add-ons, no extra charge per run or per GB of memory.

Websites with contacts	Price
100	$0.60
1,000	$6
10,000	$60

Apify's free plan includes $5 of monthly credit, which covers about 830 websites with contacts a month at no cost.

You are not charged when a website does not exist or cannot be reached, blocks automated requests, shows a bot-protection page, disallows bots in robots.txt, or has no email, phone or social profile on the pages read. Such items are still returned, with the reason in error.

How it works, and its limits

The Actor loads the homepage, ranks its links (Contact, Impressum / Imprint, About, Team, Support …), reads up to Max pages per website pages of the same domain, and merges everything into one row.

Please know the limits before you buy:

• Contact forms and images are not read. An address shown only as an image or hidden behind a contact form is missed (you are not charged when nothing is found).
• Captchas stop us. The Actor visits like a normal browser and waits out automatic "checking your browser" pages, but it does not solve captchas, use proxies to get around blocks, or ignore robots.txt. Those sites are returned free.
• It reads contact pages, not the whole site. It is built for "what are this company's contacts?", not for collecting every address mentioned in a blog. Raise Max pages per website for big sites.
• The email check is on the domain level. It tells you whether the domain can receive mail and who hosts it; it does not contact the mail server to test one single mailbox. You get the addresses the site publishes; the own-domain ones come first.
• People come from the website itself. Only people the site names with a job title are returned — no guessed addresses and no outside database. Sites without a team page or imprint give no people.
• Third parties can appear. An imprint can name the web agency or a dispute-resolution body; their addresses are kept but sorted after the site's own, and never chosen as primaryEmail when the site has its own.

Data protection

Business contact pages often name employees with their direct email, phone or LinkedIn profile. That is personal data under the GDPR and similar laws. You are responsible for having a legal basis for what you do with it — for example, German law (§ 7 UWG) and other EU rules restrict unsolicited advertising emails, and the US CAN-SPAM Act sets rules for commercial email. Use the data for legitimate business purposes only.

FAQ

Is this an email extractor or a social media scraper? Both. Each row has the emails, the phone numbers and the social profile links of one website, so you do not need three separate tools.

How many websites can I check at once? There is no fixed limit. Thousands of URLs in one run are fine; duplicates are removed automatically.

Why is a website free in my results? Look at error: the site was down, blocked bots, disallowed bots in robots.txt, or had no contact data on the pages read.

Do names, job titles and email checks cost extra? No. They are part of the $0.006 per website. You can switch them off with findPeople and verifyEmails if you do not need them; the price stays the same.

Can I get the company name, address and register number too? The company name is included. For the full legal data of German, Austrian and Swiss companies (address, Handelsregister number, VAT ID), use the Impressum & Imprint Scraper.

Can I run it on a schedule or from my code? Yes. Use Apify schedules, the REST API, the JavaScript or Python clients, or integrations like Make, Zapier, n8n and Google Sheets.
