Website Contact Scout

Turn company websites into clean lead-enrichment rows. Website Contact Scout crawls user-provided domains and extracts public contact signals: emails, phone numbers, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, source page, normalized domain, counts, and a confidence score.

What it is good for

• Enriching a CSV of company domains before outbound sales.
• Finding contact pages for agencies, recruiters, and B2B research teams.
• Building lightweight lead lists from public company websites.
• Checking whether a website exposes sales/support contact channels.

Input

Field	Description
startUrls	Company, directory, or contact-page URLs to scan.
maxRequestsPerCrawl	Maximum number of pages to crawl across all start URLs.
sameDomainOnly	Keep crawling constrained to the submitted domains. Recommended: true.

Example input:

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.iana.org/contact" },
    { "url": "https://www.python.org/about/help/" }
  ],
  "maxRequestsPerCrawl": 25,
  "sameDomainOnly": true
}

Output

Each dataset item is a lead/contact record:

{
  "domain": "iana.org",
  "companyName": "Contact Us",
  "contactPage": "https://www.iana.org/contact",
  "emails": ["iana@iana.org"],
  "phones": ["+1-424-254-5300", "+1-424-254-5033"],
  "socials": [],
  "emailCount": 1,
  "phoneCount": 2,
  "socialCount": 0,
  "confidence": 0.8
}

Common fields:

• url, domain, companyName, title, contactPage
• emails, phones, socials
• platform-specific fields such as linkedin, twitter, facebook, instagram, youtube
• emailCount, phoneCount, socialCount
• confidence

Quality filters

The Actor includes lightweight cleanup to reduce noisy lead data:

• rejects common date-like phone false positives
• rejects protocol/range-style numbers
• canonicalizes social links
• deduplicates repeated contact-page fragments such as /contact#main
• suppresses low-confidence social-only boilerplate pages

Tips for best results

• Submit company homepages or contact/about pages.
• Keep sameDomainOnly enabled unless you intentionally want broader crawling.
• Use a moderate maxRequestsPerCrawl first, then scale once output quality is confirmed.
• Export the dataset as CSV for sales, recruiting, SEO, or research workflows.

Responsible use

This Actor extracts public information from websites you provide. Respect website terms, privacy laws, and anti-spam rules. Do not use extracted contacts for unlawful or abusive outreach.
