809 companies searched. Every result kept, including the ones that came back with nothing, because what a list leaves out is the part nobody shows you.
That is 166 rows you can act on out of 809. It is not a flattering number and it is the real one. A supplier promising you 2,000 contacts from 2,000 companies is either selling you a much smaller list, or the addresses are guessed.
Role addresses, published by each company on its own site for enquiries. The domain is shown because the domain matching the website is the whole point. The part before the @ is masked: this page is public and these businesses did not ask to be on it.

Where the only address a company publishes belongs to a named person, that address does not go in the file. You get the company and its phone number instead, and a row saying what happened. A named individual's address is personal data and it arrives with duties attached that a role address does not carry.
| Company | Website | Phone | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| CESCA ACCOUNTING LTD | cescauk.org | +44 7403 750039 | the only address published belongs to a named person |
| THE ACCOUNTANCY SERVICE (MA) LTD | accountancyservice.co.uk | 0800 0112623 | the only address published belongs to a named person |
| SAB ACCOUNTANCY SERVICES LTD | sabaccountancy.co.uk | 07909 787 342 | the only address published belongs to a named person |
| CANTOR ATKIN LIMITED | cantoratkin.co.uk | 01737 845586 | the only address published belongs to a named person |
| ASH MARQUES LIMITED | ashmarques.co.uk | 07821 350045 | the only address published belongs to a named person |
A guesser working from the company name will find a website and hand it over. These are the ones our name check threw out, with the reason it gave:
| Company | What the check said |
|---|---|
| ASH & MAPLE LIMITED | ash.com refused: "maple" is not in the domain |
| LONDON & ESSEX CONTRACTORS LTD | london.com refused: "essex" is not in the domain |
| BESPOKE GARDEN ROOMS & DECKING LTD | bespokegardenrooms.co.uk refused: "decking" is not in the domain |
| SMITH & CLELLAND CONSTRUCTION & JOINERY LTD | smith.co.uk refused: "clelland" is not in the domain |
Strip the name of LONDON & ESSEX CONTRACTORS LTD
and guess a domain and you get london.com. It resolves. It returns a
real website. It is not their website. Without the check that row goes into your
list looking exactly like a correct one, and you find out when you email a
stranger.
A handful of companies publish a contact address on a different domain from
their website: a firm on a .com site with a .co.uk
address. Those are real and they are left out of the table above, because the
table is demonstrating the domain check. The check trades a few correct
rows for none of the wrong ones, which is the right way round, and it is
a trade rather than a free win.
Tell us a trade and an area and we will run 2,000 companies in it and send you the file: the rows that came back, the ones held back, and the reason for every one we threw out. Free, nothing to install, no mailing list.
Email the trade and the area: 10 places, until 31 October. Or build it yourself: the whole method is written down at winnowed.co.uk/guide, free and with nothing to sign up to.
