How to find prospects' emails with a list of their social profile links

This article shows you how to run an email address search by uploading a file with social profile links.

Upload your list of social profile links (e.g., LinkedIn) to the Social URL Search tool to find email addresses.

Step 1: Open Social URL Search page

Choose the Social URL Search tool from the Find Leads menu in your Snov.io account.

Step 2: Upload a file with social links

Click the Choose file button to select the file from your computer.

To ensure that your uploaded file is processed correctly, certain requirements must be met.

• The uploaded files should be in either CSV or TXT formats.
• The uploaded file should have only one column with links (Column A).
• Each line should contain only one link, and the maximum number of lines should be 20,000.
• File size should not exceed 10 MB.
• The tool supports links to standard LinkedIn profiles. 

Please note that links to Sales Navigator profiles cannot be processed if uploaded.

Supported link format is: https://www.linkedin.com/in/prospect-name-ba3821134/

Here’s an example of the file formatting: 

Step 3: Start the search

Click the Start search button to begin email address search and process your file. At this step, no credits will be charged.

After the tool processes your file, you’ll see the number of social links for which it is possible to search for emails. 

If you see a “Prospects not found” message, it means that there are no suitable links in your file.

Step 4: Add prospects to a list

The final step is to add the prospects to your list.

After clicking the Add to list button, you will see a message indicating the number of prospects found and the number of credits required to add them to your list.

Note: Since the emails from the Social URL search are pre-verified with our email checker, the total credit cost will depend on the verification results. Invalid emails won’t cost any credits.

Click Yes to continue adding prospects to your list.

To view the results in your prospect list, click on the Open list button.

For profiles where Snov.io can’t find an email, use the LinkedIn automation tool to reach them automatically on LinkedIn.
