## 4. Deep Website Crawler Integration

If a directory listing has a website link but doesn't list an email address:
- Bolt Scraper automatically visits the business's website in the background.
- It crawls the homepage and up to 2 contact/about pages to find contact channels.
- Found numbers and emails populate the **Phone From WEBSITE** and **Email From WEBSITE** columns.
