Input example

{
  "searchTerms": ["plumbers"],
  "locations": ["austin-tx"],
  "maxPages": 1,
  "includeDetails": true
}

Options

• Max Pages Per Search -- Each page returns ~30 results. Set to 1-3 for quick runs, or 0 for all available pages.
• Include Detail Pages -- Enables email extraction and additional fields (payment methods, neighborhoods). Uses more proxy credits but provides richer data.
• Proxy Configuration -- US residential proxies are required (Cloudflare protection). The default Apify RESIDENTIAL proxy group works out of the box.

Cost

Free to try -- every Apify account includes $5/month in free platform credits, enough for a full test run at no cost.

Roughly $0.005 per result using Apify residential proxies. A typical run of 1 page (30 results) costs about $0.25 including the $0.10 platform fee. Detail pages cost slightly more due to additional proxy usage.

Run size	Results	Approximate cost
1 page, no details	~30	~$0.25
3 pages, no details	~90	~$0.55
1 page, with details	~30	~$0.40
All pages (large city)	500+	~$3-6

Output formats

Export results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or push directly to Google Sheets, Slack, email, or any webhook via Apify integrations.

Reliability

• Built-in Cloudflare bypass using residential proxies and headless Chrome
• Automatic retry logic for failed requests
• Fresh browser sessions per detail page for maximum data extraction
• Consistent 95%+ success rate on standard searches

FAQ

Does it extract emails? Yes, when "Include Detail Pages" is enabled. Not every business lists an email, but extraction rate is typically 15-25% of listings.

How many results can I get? Yellow Pages returns up to 30 results per page and up to 100 pages per search. For a broad category in a large metro, expect 500-2,000+ results.

Does it work for all US cities? Yes. Any location listed on YellowPages.com is supported. Use the city-state format (e.g., "chicago-il", "miami-fl").

How fast is it? A single-page search completes in 30-60 seconds. Larger runs with detail pages take 3-10 minutes depending on volume.
