Domain Contact Scraper

Extract emails, phone numbers, WhatsApp links, and social media profiles from any website — with structured, domain-level output.

Looking for a reliable website contact details scraper?

This Apify Actor intelligently crawls websites to extract:

• 📧 Email addresses
• 📞 Phone numbers
• 💬 WhatsApp links
• 🔗 Social media profiles (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, and more)

Unlike generic email extractors that dump raw page data, this Actor performs priority-first crawling and returns one clean, consolidated result per domain, including crawl metadata for full transparency.

Built for developers, agencies, and automation pipelines that need predictable and structured contact discovery.

🚀 Why Try This Actor?

✔ Intelligent, signal-driven crawl strategy ✔ Multilingual contact-page detection (contact, kontakt, contacto, contato, impressum, about, legal, etc.) ✔ One structured result per start URL ✔ Transparent crawl metadata (pages visited, stop reason, timestamp) ✔ Configurable crawl depth and scope ✔ Optional early-stop modes for adaptive crawling

Whether you're building a lead generation workflow, enriching business directories, or automating contact discovery, this Actor provides structured, reliable output ready for integration.

🔍 What This Contact Scraper Does

For each start URL:

1. Prioritizes high-value pages (contact, about, legal, multilingual equivalents)
2. Crawls within a controlled scope (hostname, domain, origin, or all links)
3. Extracts contact details
4. Aggregates all results in memory
5. Outputs exactly one structured result per domain

No fragmented per-page records. No messy datasets.

📦 Output Structure

Each start URL produces one result:

{
"schemaVersion":1,
"startUrl":"https://example.com",
"finalUrl":"https://www.example.com",
"contacts":{
"emails":["info@example.com"],
"phones":["+1 555 123 4567"],
"socials":[
{
"type":"linkedin",
"url":"https://linkedin.com/company/example"
}
],
"whatsapps":["+15551234567"]
},
"crawl":{
"pagesVisited":4,
"visitedSample":["https://example.com","https://example.com/contact"],
"stoppedReason":"early-stop",
"updatedAt":"2026-01-01T12:00:00.000Z"
}
}

Key Benefits of This Structure

• One consolidated result per domain
• Crawl transparency via pagesVisited and stoppedReason
• Structured contacts object for easy automation
• Versioned schema (schemaVersion: 1) for stability

🧩 Input Examples

Basic Usage (Quick Start)

{
"startUrls":[{"url":"https://apify.com"}]
}

That’s it. The Actor will:

• Crawl the site
• Prioritize contact-related pages
• Return structured contact data

Advanced Configuration

{
"maxPagesPerStartUrl":8,
"maxDepth":1,
"enqueueStrategy":"same-hostname",
"earlyStopMode":"balanced",
"proxyConfigurationOptions":{
"useApifyProxy":true
},
"startUrls":[{"url":"https://apify.com"}]
}

Key Options Explained

• maxPagesPerStartUrl Limits pages visited per domain.

• maxDepth Controls how deep links are followed.

• enqueueStrategy Defines crawl scope:

  • same-hostname (default)
  • same-domain (includes subdomains)
  • same-origin
  • all

• earlyStopMode (optional)

  • off (default)
  • balanced
  • aggressive

Balanced and aggressive modes allow the crawl to stop once sufficient direct contact signals are discovered or when exploration becomes stale.

• proxyConfigurationOptions Optional proxy settings for improved reach.

🧠 Intelligent Priority-First Crawling

This is not a simple depth-first or breadth-first scraper.

The Actor:

• Scores links before enqueuing
• Prioritizes high-value contact pages
• Supports multilingual detection (contact, kontakt, contacto, contato, impressum, about, etc.)
• Uses adaptive early-stop logic (optional)

This results in faster, more disciplined contact discovery.

🌍 SEO & Lead Generation Use Cases

This website contact scraper is ideal for:

• Lead generation workflows
• Business directory building
• Sales prospecting automation
• Agency outreach campaigns
• CRM enrichment
• Data collection pipelines
• Email extraction from company websites

⚙️ Designed for Developers & Automation

• Clean JSON output with multi-format export (CSV, Excel, XML, HTML)
• Domain-level aggregation
• Deterministic crawl behavior
• No per-page dataset fragmentation
• Works seamlessly with Apify API, webhooks, and SDKs

⚠️ Limitations

• Uses HTML parsing (Cheerio-based). Heavy client-side-rendered sites may require a browser-based crawler.
• Does not perform email verification (while it does perform basic email and phone validation)
• Does not identify specific individuals or job titles.

🚧 Roadmap & Upcoming Improvements

This Actor is continuously evolving. Key upcoming features include:

• Browser-Based Crawling: Introducing Playwright Crawler to handle dynamic SPAs (React, Vue, Angular) while retaining lightweight HTML crawling as the high-speed default.

• Email Verification: Optional features for MX record validation, SMTP checks, and deliverability indicators to enhance lead quality.
