People used to leave their business or private contacts across social media profiles. Unfortunately, due to a spam email activity, we have to hide our email addresses from public access.

Nevertheless, the necessity of finding email addresses is still the main priority when it comes to email marketing.

In this tutorial, you will find out 7 ways on how to find anyone’s email address in a blink of an eye.

Let’s begin!

1. Specialized Tools for Finding Email Addresses

If you don’t want to waste your time on searching emails manually, you can use a few awesome tools that would do this work for you. But keep in mind that these tools are not free of charge.

Let’s review a few of them that show great results:

• ContactOut

Basically, ContactOut works as a Chrome extension that helps extract email addresses from one’s LinkedIn profile.

The best feature of this service is that it allows you to find the address in a single click. It should be mentioned that you won’t find any information about the prices of this tool. You will have to discuss it in a personal way. Likely, you can get these numbers here.

First of all, ContactOut doesn’t offer a monthly payment option. You can purchase using the tool quarterly. One quarter for 3 users costs $1,593.

• Find That Email

This tool also has a high percentage of finding valid email addresses. It works in a different way in contrast to ContactOut. You will have to include a person’s full name and a domain name of the website this person is related to.

The price depends on your needs. If you need to find the email addresses of the prospects only, you will have to pay $29 per month (500 credits). But if you need a Pro plan with 2K credits, it will cost $79.

• Hunter.io

Hunter.io’s best feature is that this tool provides you with all possible email addresses that are related to a certain website.

Moreover, you can search for email addresses by including a person’s full name and a website related to him or her. Just like FindThat.Email works.

2. Try to Guess the Email Address

Sometimes you can try to figure out one’s personal email address by simple guessing it. To do this you need to know the full name of your target and a domain name of a website this person is related to.

You should realize that almost 70% of the email addresses have the structure na**@do****.com.

There are several formulas to select an appropriate variant of the email address. Let’s review them:

• First name + domain (se****@th*******************.com)
• First name + last name + domain (se*************@th*******************.com / se************@th*******************.com)
• First name + the 1st letter of the last name + domain se*****@th*******************.com / se******@th*******************.com)
• The 1st letter of the last name + first name + domain (a.******@th*******************.com / as*****@th*******************.com)
• Initials + domain (**@th*******************.com)

It goes without saying that testing all these variations is time-consuming. Thus, you can use Email Permutator+ which suggests a list of possible email addresses according to your query.

The email suggestions need to be verified with the help of LinkedIn Sales Navigator extension. Just grab the suggested email addresses and go to your Gmail account. Afterwards, compose a message and paste the email suggestions into “To” field.

Once you see that a certain email address belongs to one’s LinkedIn profile, you can be sure that it is valid.

3. Newsletter Subscription

Some of the potential targets that you want to get in touch with can have their own websites. It means that there is an opportunity to subscribe to their newsletter. As a rule, the newsletter comes from a website owner’s personal email address.

Therefore, by signing up for the newsletter you will be able to find the correct email addresses of your targets.

4. Search Emails on Twitter

Did you know that lots of people mention their email addresses on Twitter?

The thing is that Twitter users prefer to hide emails from bots to decrease the chance of getting spam messages in the future.

To avoid spam, people tend to replace “@” and “.” with “at” and “dot”.  It means that you will have to use Twitter’s Advanced Search option to figure out the email addresses.

Your task is to search the words “email” and “at” + Twitter profile name of the person. You must include these queries within the fields “All of these words” and “From these accounts”.

Let’s see if this technique works with finding the email address of Neil Patel.

Yeap, with the help of Twitter Advanced Search it is possible to find Neil Patel’s email address. Now, it is your turn to search for the contacts you need.

5. Ask About Email Addresses on Social Channels

Don’t hesitate to ask about one’s email address on social channels.

You can do it on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Make sure your own profiles across these social channels look real and you use them on a daily basis. However, you should realize that some social channels like Facebook could be used by people to highlight their private life – not for business needs.

Hence, the best option here would be to try your luck by asking about emails on LinkedIn and Twitter.

These channels are more about business things than some random life stuff.

6. Find Email Address with the Help of SEO Tool

Every website owner tries to optimize his or her website. To do it efficiently they use different SEO tools and one of them that is quite powerful is Ahrefs.

But this post is not about SEO. Nevertheless, the Ahrefs Content Explorer tool can be used for finding email addresses as well. Especially, if you run blogger outreach regularly.

You need to conduct research on the topic you are interested in.

You will get a list of publications for a specific period. Some of the opportunities include the authors of the posts. It gives you the chance to find an email address right from the jump. Go to your favourite email finder tool and put the data you have there.

Voila, you have the email address you wanted to find.

7. Use Contact Form on the Website to Find out an Email Address

Any website is supposed to have a contact form to fill or a generic email address to send the pitches to.

Obviously, that if you use these forms to get some information, your request will be reviewed by a support team. The task of the support team members is to do their best to satisfy every user that reaches out to them.

It means that your request regarding getting one’s business email will be reviewed and resolved. You will get the email address of the exact person you are interested in.
