Question ID: 142080
I have approx 60000 base URLs of companies in the UK which most have a
postal address. I wish to do a snail mail advertising campaign - which
may be old hat, but still effective. I need the names of people who
work at these companies and preferably Job Titles so I can individualy
address each letter. Is there an extractor out their that will extract
peoples names from websites - NOT email addresses. Also I would like
to extract the companies office addresses from each website to compare
to my own to see if my details are correct - Can this also be
automated. I am not looking to pay more than $500 ish for these
products or a solution.

Or this?

http://www.connotate.com/csp.asp

This looks like it would definitely do it:

http://www.extradata.com/

Hi -

I have found a company that I'm fairly positive will do exactly what
you're looking for -- either in service or in purchasable software. 
I'm waiting back to hear a quote.

Thanks,

Thanks so far - however I am aware of all three already - we have been
playing with extradata's products and Visual Web task - What I really
need is a ready made solution as I am not a programmer - I look
forward to your next response

But I will investigate connotates products more.

Thanks

Mike

cassonmike-ga,

Can you give me a few examples of the URL's you're dealing with?  The
company I've contacted needs a few to be able to gauge the cost.

Thanks,

Is their a private email address I can mail them to. 

However just to give you an idea - they are mostly computer companies
- Small to medium size software houses. Why does the URls in question
effect the price? Surely a spider is a spider - if you know what I
mean! Are they offering this as a service or purchaseable software -
as I am only interested in purchaseable software.

thanks
Mike
