Is there a tool that will find a string from the source code from a list of URLs?

[richdan]

I need a tool that will run through a long list of URLs (from multiple domains), look for a specific string in the source code and then produce a CSV showing in which URLs the the string was found.

This is for legitimate research, not for any nefarious purposes

Any ideas of such a tool already exists?

H Danny,

I have never used it but ScrapeBox has a page scanner that sounds like it would work.

Hope that helps,

If you have the list of url's you want to check  in csv you could use Screaming Frog: put the string in a  custom filter & crawl the urls based on the list. Applying the filter will only include the url's that contain the string in the source code.

Didn't know Screaming Frog could do that. Works perfectly!

Screaming Frog is just the gift that keeps on giving
