Input Options of Contact Details Scraper

There are many input options available in the contact details data scraper to allow you to mention the targeted page to scrape:

  • Start URLs: it allows you to add the list of web page URLs so that the scraper will start its process. Add as many URLs as you want in Google Sheets formats or URLs containing text files.
  • Maximum link depth: it mentions the depth of the scraper to extract mentioned web page links from the start URLs. If not, the tool ignores the URL and loads only the starting link.
  • Stay inside the domain: if permitted, the scraper will follow the same domain links as the referring webpage. For instance, if you enable the setting, the scraper sees the URL on http://www.example.com/some-page to http://www.another-domain.com/. The scraper will now load the second webpage due to the differences in the www.another-domain.com and www.example.com URLs.

Further, the contact details scraper accepts excessive input options to allow you to limit page counts and mention proxies.
