Yellow Pages US Scraper - Phones, Emails, Coordinates, Reviews

What does Yellow Pages US Scraper do?

Yellow Pages US Scraper turns a Yellow Pages search - a trade and a US city or ZIP - into a clean table of local businesses: name, phone, street address, coordinates, website, categories, rating, review count and years in business, one row per business. It reads SuperPages too (the same Thryv directory, same business ids). Sales teams, lead-gen agencies, local-SEO analysts and recruiters use it to build call lists by trade and area.

• 📞 Contact first - a phone on 100% of rows in our test runs, a website on 91-95%.
• 📍 Coordinates on every addressed business without opening each profile (97-99% of businesses with a street address).
• 📇 Optional profile details - email, opening hours by day, description, services, payment methods, extra phones, social links, photos, year established.
• ⭐ Optional reviews - author, date, stars (plus YP's Expertise / Professionalism / Promptness), title, text, source.
• 🔎 Search terms × locations, or paste URLs - search pages, city-category pages (/austin-tx/plumbers) and business pages.
• 🔁 Monitor mode - only businesses earlier runs did not deliver, ready for a schedule.
• 🔓 No login, no cookies, no API key.

⬇️ Input

Parameter	Type	Description
searchTerms	string[]	Trade, category or business name. Prefilled ["plumber"].

startUrls	string[]	Yellow Pages / SuperPages search URLs, city-category pages or business pages.
source	select	yellowpages (default) or superpages for typed searches. Pasted URLs use their own site.
sortBy	select	default (best match), distance, rating, name - the directory's own sort.
includeAds	boolean	Also return the sponsored placements (marked isAd: true). Default off.
requirePhone / requireWebsite / requireEmail	boolean	Skip businesses without one. Email needs the profile page, so it turns details on.
minRating / minReviews	number	Skip businesses rated lower / with fewer reviews (unrated ones are skipped).
includeCoordinates	boolean	Latitude / longitude from the map view of each results page. Default on.
includeDetails	boolean	Open each business's profile page. Default off.

monitorMode / monitorKey	boolean / string	Only businesses no earlier run (with the same search and key) delivered.
maxResults	integer	Rows across the whole run. Default 100, 0 = no limit.
maxResultsPerSearch	integer	Cap per term × location. Default 0 (none).
maxPagesPerSearch	integer	Results pages per search, 30 businesses each, at most 100.

Input JSON

  "searchTerms": ["plumber", "electrician"],
  "locations": ["Austin, TX", "78704"],
  "maxResults": 200,
  "includeDetails": true,
  "requirePhone": true
}

Put the trade in search terms and the place in locations

"plumber" + "Austin, TX" is one search. Use a city with its state or a ZIP - Yellow Pages answers an unknown place with "not found", and the run summary says so. Two terms and three locations are six searches.

Pick details only when you need them

The results pages already carry phone, address, coordinates, website, categories, rating and years in business. Profile details add email, hours, services, socials and photos, but read one extra page per business, so a run with details takes longer and adds the details event per row.

Paste URLs for exact pages

Any Yellow Pages search you have built in the browser can be pasted as a start URL - its filters are kept. City-category pages (https://www.yellowpages.com/austin-tx/plumbers) and business pages (.../mip/clarke-kent-plumbing-10674347) work too.

Limits and empty runs

• Yellow Pages lists at most 3,000 businesses per search (100 pages of 30). Split a big metro by ZIP to go deeper.
• Deep result pages are served from more than one ordering, so a page can repeat businesses another page listed. Repeats are never delivered twice; the run re-reads such pages and reports, per search, how many different businesses it found against the site's own total (RUN_SUMMARY). Full walks in testing: 515 of 515 plumbers in Austin, 896 of 925 electricians in Denver (97%).
• A ZIP or city Yellow Pages does not know returns nothing; a search with no matches returns nothing. Neither is charged.
• Profile-page ratings are rounded to whole stars; rows from a search keep the exact average from the search card.
• Email from the business's own website (not from Yellow Pages) is not collected.
