One of the most used website in the world, Google is one resource for email harvesting. Let's take a closer look at it!

Google Email Scraping.

Example: search for emails who work in the digital marketing field.

Go to Google and search for emails that are involved in digital marketing. Type "Digital Marketing" “@gmail.com” on the search bar and click on search. Its important to remember that this search we is for google emails. Google will show results on digital marketing.

Tip: to get the most out of the searches, go to search setting and ensure you have the search results set to 100. This way you can get more results in the page.

Copy all the data on the search page. How to get the emails? Go to this free and reliable email extraction tool, H-SUPERTOOLS here.

Let's take it a step further, to a more complex example. Let's say you want to search for other emails, not just Gmail. Type the same search but instead remove the quotes from digital marketing and add OR “yahoo.com” to your search term. This way Google gets you emails from both Gmail and Yahoo!

You can use the same method to search for a specific area or specific site. 

For example, this search (travel agent “@gmail.com” OR “yahoo.com” site:Facebook.com) gets you both Gmail and Yahoo emails from Facebook. 

I've got to say that this is super cool!
