How to Read the Page Titles of the Companies on an Email List

··2 min read

To read the page title of every company on an email list, take the domain after the @ in each address, read that company's home page and copy its title and meta description. The bulk email website title and description finder does this for every address in a pasted list or CSV and gives each one a row.

The check reads the domain, not the mailbox.

Why check this on an email list

The title and description are the company's own one-line summary, so they show what the business says it does without opening each site. A list of thousands of addresses has far fewer unique companies, so one page read per domain is enough.

The by-hand way

  1. Take the domain after the @, for example acme.example from sam@acme.example.
  2. Open https://acme.example and view the page source.
  3. Find the title tag and the meta description tag in the head.
  4. Copy both, and repeat for every unique domain.

For a plain list of domains, see check page titles and meta descriptions in bulk.

Step 1: paste the addresses

Paste addresses one per line, or upload a CSV. Only the unique domains are sent, never the mailbox names.

Step 2: run the check

Press Read titles and descriptions. One GET of each home page is made from our server, with no cookies. Nothing is stored, and no mail is sent.

Step 3: read the result

Result What it means
Has a title A title tag was found; the title and description are in the CSV
No title The home page was read and had no title tag in the first 128 KB
HTTP error or No answer The site refused or didn't answer, so nothing was read

The CSV carries the title, description and final address beside each email. No address is left out of the list handed on to the mailbox check.

What this check cannot do

  • It checks the domain, not the mailbox.
  • JavaScript is not run, so a title set in the browser can be missing.
  • A title is marketing text, not a verified company name.
  • Up to 100 unique domains a run without an account, 500 signed in.

To turn domains into company names, use the domain to company name tool.

Next: the rest of the list

For the addresses that remain, use the verify page: the first 100 checks are free with a Google sign-in, no card.

Common questions

How do I read the title of every company on an email list?

Take the domain after the @ in each address, open that company's home page and read its title and description. A bulk email website title and description finder does that for every address in a pasted list.

Does a page title tell me whether the mailbox exists?

No. The tool checks the domain, not the mailbox.

Is the title the company's real name?

Not necessarily. It is the wording the company chose for its home page.

Does it send an email to the domain?

No. It makes web requests to the home page only and never connects to a mail server.

Check your list before you send

Real mailbox checks over SMTP, and nothing is sent to the address. Sign in with Google and your first 100 email checks are free, no card. Plans for bigger lists are on the pricing page.
