## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Website Contact Scraper: Emails, Phones & Social Profiles

Turn a list of websites into contact data. Give this Actor domains or URLs and it fetches each site's homepage plus its contact, about, and support pages, then returns one clean row per site with every email address, phone number, and social profile link it finds. No login, no API key, no browser.

Built for sales teams, marketers, and agencies who already have a list of target companies and need a way to reach them. Feed it the output of a lead source (a directory scrape, a CSV of domains, another Actor) and get back inboxes and profiles you can act on.

### What you get

One row per website, with:

- `emails` (deduplicated, junk filtered) and `bestEmail` (prefers role inboxes like contact@ and info@ on the site's own domain)
- `phones` (from tel: links and on-page numbers)
- `socials` (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, TikTok, GitHub profile links)
- `domain`, `finalUrl`, `reachable`, `pagesScanned`, `contactsFound`, `scrapedAt`

### Input

- `websites` (list of domains or URLs, up to 2000 per run)
- `maxPagesPerSite` (homepage plus discovered contact/about pages, default 5)

### Example input

```json
{
  "websites": ["apify.com", "basecamp.com", "posthog.com"],
  "maxPagesPerSite": 5
}
````

### Example output

```json
{
  "website": "basecamp.com",
  "finalUrl": "https://basecamp.com/",
  "domain": "basecamp.com",
  "reachable": true,
  "emails": ["support@basecamp.com"],
  "bestEmail": "support@basecamp.com",
  "phones": [],
  "socials": {
    "twitter": "https://x.com/basecamp",
    "youtube": "https://www.youtube.com/basecamp"
  },
  "pagesScanned": ["https://basecamp.com/", "https://basecamp.com/about", "https://basecamp.com/support"],
  "contactsFound": true
}
```

### Uses

- Enrich a domain list from any lead source into outreach-ready contacts
- Build prospect lists: emails and LinkedIn pages for every company on your target list
- Refresh a stale CRM: check which sites are still live and what their current contact info is
- Chain after a directory or maps scrape to add direct contact channels

### Pricing

Pay per result. You are only charged for sites where at least one email, phone, or social profile was found. Unreachable sites and sites with nothing to show are always free. The first 10 contact rows of every run are free so you can validate output before you scale up.

### Notes

- The Actor scans the homepage and up to `maxPagesPerSite - 1` likely contact pages (contact, about, impressum, support, team) discovered from the site's own links.
- Emails are filtered for common junk (asset filenames, package versions, placeholder domains, noreply inboxes). Share buttons and login links are excluded from social profiles.
- Ordinary business sites need no proxy. Runs are plain HTTP, so compute cost stays near zero even on large lists.

# Actor input Schema

## `websites` (type: `array`):

List of websites to extract contacts from. Domains or full URLs both work, e.g. apify.com or https://basecamp.com. Up to 2000 per run.

## `maxPagesPerSite` (type: `integer`):

How many pages to scan per website: the homepage plus up to this many minus one contact/about/support pages discovered from its links. More pages find more contacts but run longer.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional. Runs without a proxy by default since these are ordinary business websites. Supply one only if your target list needs it.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "websites": [
    "apify.com",
    "basecamp.com",
    "posthog.com"
  ],
  "maxPagesPerSite": 5
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "websites": [
        "apify.com",
        "basecamp.com",
        "posthog.com"
    ],
    "maxPagesPerSite": 5
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("scrapemint/website-contact-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
