Social Link Extractor
Detect Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, GitHub, and Pinterest profile links across many pages — one column per platform.
The Social Link Extractor finds social media profile links across one or many pages. Give it a list of company websites and it returns each site's Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook and other profiles — one column per platform.
It shares its engine with the Email Extractor: same URL sources (manual input, CSV upload, Data Source), same deep scan of internal links, same configuration. The difference is that social link detection is always on here, and email extraction becomes the optional add-on.
Platforms detected
Seven built-in platforms, all enabled by default:
| Platform | What's matched |
|---|---|
| Twitter/X | Profile URLs on both domains |
| Pages and profiles, including fb.com | |
| Profile URLs | |
| YouTube | Channels in every URL style, including @handles |
| TikTok | @handles |
| GitHub | User and organization profiles |
| Profile URLs |
You can add custom URL patterns (your own regex) — each pattern gets its own output column. Handy for platforms not on the list, or for site-specific profile URLs.
How detection works
The tool scans both link hrefs and URLs written in the page text — so a profile mentioned in a footer paragraph is caught even if it isn't a clickable link. Results are deduplicated per platform.
Deep scanning (on by default) follows each page's internal links — depth 1–5, up to 50 links per page, same-domain by default — since social icons often live on contact and about pages. See the Email Extractor page for the full crawling options.
LinkedIn is not supported
LinkedIn is blocked as a target in every tool.
Output
One row per seed URL, in input order: the URL, a combined Social Links column, and one column per platform (plus columns for any custom patterns). Toggle on the email add-on and you also get Emails and Email Count columns in the same run.
Recipes
Recipes are fully supported. All platforms, custom patterns, and deep scanning are included; the Faster Extraction toggle runs several tabs in parallel for large jobs.
