Custom Scraping Jobs
Professional Whois Database Scraping at Scale
Need structured registrant data for a custom domain list? We scrape, clean, and deliver formatted whois files to your exact specifications. Bulk rates start as low as $2.00 per 1,000 records.
Custom Filtered Extractions
Limit your database scrape to specific generic extensions (like .com, .net) or vertical keywords within the domain names themselves to find highly relevant leads.
Compliance & Geo Segmenting
Filter target countries or strip out GDPR-restricted regions, proxies, and redacted data so you only receive actionable and legal registrant rows.
Bespoke Delivery & Formats
Choose custom delimiters (CSV, JSON, SQL inserts), field mappings, and delivery cadences (FTP, S3 buckets, or simple file downloads).
Save Engineering Overhead
Build a Custom Whois Scraper vs. Our Service
Building a crawler internally sounds simple until rate limits, IP blacklisting, and registry query formats break your scripts. Let us handle the data mining.
| Challenge | DIY Scraping | GetWhoisData Scraping |
|---|---|---|
| Registry Rate Limits | Aggressive blocks. Port 43 limits connections per IP to single digits. | Distributed crawler routing requests across thousands of clean IPs. |
| Format Parsing | Constant failure. Over 800 registrars write whois outputs differently. | Normalizer clusters response schemas into a flat 40+ column output. |
| Infrastructure Cost | High proxy and server costs, plus recurring developer maintenance. | Included. Pricing is as low as $2 per 1k records. |

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions on WHOIS Database Scraping
How is the custom whois scraping service priced?+
We charge on a volume sliding scale. For large batches (250,000+ domains), rates are as low as $2.00 per 1,000 records. For smaller domain batches, we offer affordable flat-fee project packages.
Can you scrape phone numbers and emails?+
Yes. Our crawling engine extracts all public registrant, administrative, and technical contact details. If a record is protected by WHOIS privacy or redacted under regional regulations, it is tagged appropriately.
How fast can you scrape a custom domain list?+
Most custom scrapes under 250,000 domains are completed and delivered within 24 hours. For massive lists (1,000,000+ domains), we schedule parallelized crawls that respect registry limits to complete within a few business days.
Which Top-Level Domains (TLDs) do you support?+
We support all generic TLDs (.com, .net, .org, .co, .info, .biz) and the entire directory of 600+ new gTLDs. Custom country-code (ccTLD) scrapes are evaluated on request depending on registry policies.
What delivery formats do you support?+
We support CSV, JSON Lines, TSV, or SQL insert formats. The data can be downloaded directly from our portal, uploaded to your FTP account, or pushed to an AWS S3 bucket.

No. Our custom whois database scraping is a pay-as-you-go service with flat-fee quotes per job. You only pay for what you scrape, with zero monthly commitments.
