  text: This paper presents a system that uses the domain name of a German business
    website to locate its information pages (e.g. company profile, contact page, imprint)
    and then identifies business specific information. We therefore concentrate on
    the extraction of characteristic vocabulary like company names, addresses, contact
    details, CEOs, etc. Above all, we interpret the HTML structure of documents and
    analyze some contextual facts to transform the unstructured web pages into structured
    forms. Our approach is quite robust in variability of the DOM, upgradeable and
    keeps data up-to-date. The evaluation experiments show high efficiency of information
    access to the generated data. Hence, the developed technique is adaptive to non-German
    websites with slight language-specific modifications, and experimental results
    on real-life websites confirm the feasibility of the approach.
