How can we extract email from a Google Maps business listing?
We actually do this in 3 simple steps, that you can reproduce manually:
- Do a search on Google Maps
- Collect the business website
- Collect the emails available on the page
Let’s deep dive in.
Do a search on Google Maps
First, the automation goes on Google Maps, and performs the search.
It scrapes the list of business listings matching with the query. And collects all available information from each Google place.
Collect the business website
Then, if a website is mentioned, the email scraper does visit the website.
For instance, the Tropical Nomad Coworking Space.
Well-lit, with pretty plants, it looks cool!
Collect the emails available on the page
There are usually 2 kind of pages with email on it:
- Home page
- Contact us page The scraper visits each page and scrapes the emails available.
For example, here, the email is directly accessible from the header of the page. We collect it and give it back to you.
On top of email, we collect of course all data points from Google Maps: google place ID, address, phone number. On the website, we also collect additional social media informaion: facebook, instagram.
We have automated all these actions so that you can do it in seconds. No more laborious manual collection. Speed things up.

Is it legal to use these emails for cold email?
Yes, it is absolutely legal to send emails to business addresses collected online.
However, two conditions must be met. The person you contact must:
- Be informed that their email address will be used for prospecting
- Be able to opt-out simply and for free
Important remark: generic professional addresses such as contact[@]companyname.com, are contact details of legal entities. They are not subject to the principles mentioned above.
In other words, be sure to let the person opt out for free.

Why is Lobstr tool better than a chrome extension?
If you browse on the Chrome app store, you will see that you can use Chrome extensions to perform the same task.
However, the comments are rather negative, to say the least.
How is Lobstr Google Maps Search Export a better tool than these extensions?
We have identified 3 main reasons.
- Easy to use
- Free
- Scalable
Let’s deep dive in.
Easy to use
If scraping data on Google is legal, it is against Google Terms of Service (ToS). That’s why Google did ban almost all Google Maps extension-based scrapers.
Absolutely not user-friendly.

Conversely, you can launch our tool in seconds. Without installing any additional piece of software. Fast and free.
Beginners-friendly.
Free
You have to pay to access email addresses and social media!

Scalable
Chrome extension is cool for quick random use. You install it, you click on a button, and it takes control of your computer. But it does use your own computer resources.
What if you want to scale up, and scrape all email from an entire country?
Leaving your computer on all night, buying a second computer, praying for no power cuts. It's impractical.
The real ones know.
With lobstr, data scraping happens on the cloud. Leave your computer's resources intact.
