Get in touchFAQ
Which directories does it work on?
Bookstore directories, publisher and press lists, journalist and outlet directories and association member rosters. Select one listing and the steps are the same on each.
Can I get an email for every bookstore?
Simplescraper collects the email a directory or a store's own site publishes. It does not find or verify emails that are not listed anywhere.
Can I add each store's email from its website?
Yes. Have Simplescraper visit each store's website and collect the contact email it publishes as another column.
Can I build a national list?
Yes. Add one search per state and run them together, then combine the results into one list.
Do I need to write code or selectors?
No. Select one bookstore and Simplescraper finds the rest of the list and its fields for you.
Is scraping a bookstore directory allowed?
Bookstore listings are published so readers can find a shop. Read each site's terms, keep to a normal pace, and follow the calling and email rules where you live before you contact anyone on the list.
