Frequently Asked Questions

Does this require any login or cookies? No. Universal B2B Lead Finder works entirely from public sources. No Apollo account, no LinkedIn cookies, no browser extensions needed.

What happens if a website doesn't have an email? The lead is still returned with whatever data was found (name, phone, address, social links). The email field will be null and the lead score will reflect the missing data.

How accurate are the emails? Emails are extracted from actual mailto: links and text on business websites — these are the same emails the business publicly lists for contact. Junk/system emails are automatically filtered out.

Can I search outside the US? Yellow Pages is US-focused. For international leads, use the startUrls mode with domain lists from local directories.

Why is the lead score useful? A score of 70+ means the lead has email + phone + LinkedIn — you can reach them via 3 channels. A score of 20 means you only have a phone number. Use score filters in your CRM to prioritize outreach effort.

How do I export to CSV or Excel? After the run finishes, click Export in the Apify Console dataset view. Choose CSV, Excel (XLSX), or JSON.

What's the difference between crawlWebsites: true and false? With true (default), the actor visits each business website to find their email address and social profiles. With false, you get faster results but only phone/address/category data from the directory.
