B2B Directory Scraper: Find Business Leads From B2B Directories
Business directories can contain valuable prospect information, but manually searching them can make list building slow and repetitive.
SimpLeads’ B2B Directory Scraper provides a separate discovery workflow for finding business records from supported directories using keywords, location and maximum-result controls.
Currently supported directory sources include Yellow Pages (US) and IndiaMART (B2B).
Search Supported Business Directories
SimpLeads provides dedicated discovery workflows for supported business-directory sources.
Yellow Pages — US
Search businesses listed in Yellow Pages using relevant keywords and location criteria.
IndiaMART — B2B
Use IndiaMART as a B2B business-discovery source for prospect research.
The exact fields extracted from IndiaMART should depend on the current product implementation and should not be overstated on the website without confirmation.
Search by Keyword and Location
The workflow lets you define what type of businesses you are looking for and where they should be located.
Use: • Keywords • Location • Maximum Results
This makes the discovery process more targeted than manually browsing directory pages one by one.
For example, a B2B agency could search for a specific business category within a particular geography and use the resulting records as a prospecting dataset.
Control Your Result Volume
The Maximum Results control lets you define how many records you want the workflow to return.
This is useful when you want to start with a smaller prospect set for testing or build a broader directory-based dataset for further research.
The result count is controlled at the discovery stage; it should not be interpreted as a guarantee of exhaustive directory coverage.
Directory Discovery Is Not People Search
The B2B Directory Scraper starts from business-directory records.
That makes it different from People Search, which starts with professional profiles and lets you filter by titles, seniority, functions, location and available contact data.
Use the Directory Scraper when the business itself is your starting point.
Use People Search when the professional or decision-maker profile is your starting point.
For deeper prospect research, directory discovery can be followed by the broader SimpLeads workflow where the relevant data is available.
Extracting a business from a directory does not automatically make it a qualified lead.
The B2B Directory Scraper helps with lead discovery.
Qualification is a separate step.
SimpLeads’ broader qualification workflow considers available context around: • Need • Urgency • Relevance • Authority
This distinction matters because a directory record tells you that a business exists and matches your search criteria. It does not prove that the business currently needs your product or service.
