Phone Number Scrapers On The
Internet

More and more social media experts and digital marketers have turned to the phone to contact their potential
customers. As an email scraper or scraper for obtaining leads, we should use a phone number scraper too. A phone
number scraper is the fast, multithread application that makes it possible for us to extract hundreds to thousands of
phone numbers in seconds. You just have to load the list of URLs you want to scrape phone numbers from, and allow
your tool to perform its task by hitting the Start button.

Two distinctive and prominent phone number scrapers have been discussed below.

1. Web Data Extractor 1/2

You can customize what phone number formats you want to scrape,
thanks to Web Data Extractor for making it possible. This tool allows you
to use the patterns that match speci c cities or countries and mobile
phone formats. It is best known for its RegEx pattern matching
technology and can be used to extract phone numbers from hundreds to
thousands of websites at a time. You can also lter the phone numbers
based on your requirements and can save the outputs on your hard drive.

you just have to adjust the settings of Web Data Extractor and perform your task easily. This tool is widely famous
as a "link extractor utility." Web Data Extractor actually navigates through the list of URLs and scrapes email
addresses and phone numbers, saving the data to its own database or your hard drive with just a few clicks.

2. Outwit Hub

Just like web data extractor, Outwit Hub is a comprehensive data scraper and phone number extractor on the
internet. This tool can be used to scrape web documents, images, links, email addresses, fax, and phone numbers.
You can export the scraped phone numbers to JSON or CSV formats. You can easily extract RSS feeds with Outwit
Hub and perform multiple tasks at a time. The scraped phone numbers can also be exported to Excel and SWL
scripts and HTML, while the images and web content are directly saved to your hard drive or Google Drive. This tool
queries to search engines using our desired keywords, fetches the matching URLs, removes the duplicate URLs and
searches through the websites to extract phone numbers or fax numbers.

Conclusion:

You can use Web Data Extractor for small and large-sized projects, while
Outwit Hub is good for both small and medium-sized data scraping
projects. Both of these tools have their distinctive features and are
primarily used to scrape phone numbers and email addresses of dynamic
websites. The trial version of Web Data Extractor does not support the
Save Format feature, which means you cannot properly save your phone
numbers with it. Thus, you may opt for its paid version or try Outwit Hut that doesn't require any programming
skills or technical knowledge. OutWit Hub is a multi-purpose app that is suitable for web developers and
programmers and scrapers emails, images, tables, lists, charts, and phone numbers with ease. These applications
impress with their simplicity and straightforwardness, but they are not suitable for high-pro le phone number
scraping tasks.
