Google Maps Contact Extractor

Irrespective of whether it is for a project, want to make price comparisons or you are interested in improving your website's rank in the SERP, there are numerous reasons why you should use a scraper.

As the name suggests, Google Maps Contact Extractor is a software solution that enables you to retrieve valuable information, such as business names, addresses, opening hours, emails and phone numbers for instance, from the popular domain maps.google.com.

The program comes with a relatively clean UI that is split into 3 main sections, namely one where you can insert the details for your query and 2 display panels where you can preview the results and the log report for the search.

It is necessary to mention that the search pane includes numerous options, so you can narrow down your query and retrieve information that is relevant for your project. More exactly, you can specify the web domain, language or the maximum number of contacts to extract on a certain radius. For the same purpose, you can also note down keywords or phrases and add multiple locations.

As a side note, while you can also retrieve email addresses along with the other details, you should keep in mind that activating this function can significantly slow down the speed of the data extraction.

Once you obtain the contact list based on your search criteria, you save it in various formats including but not limited to HTML, PDF, XML, CSV or XLS.

Then again, before you reach this stage, you should check out the various database management instruments available in the Tools menu. To be more precise, you can search for specific contacts and update the information, you can find and delete duplicates, add filters and select only the data that meets these prerequisites, so on and so forth.

Apart from the situation when you need to extract a list of email addresses,  Google Maps Contact Extractor is a relatively fast and efficient utility that can help you retrieve valuable data you can use in your projects.
