Press Release Body: Resources for people search in finding your friends and
relatives, or even lost family members, are readily accessible nowadays. Doing it
over the Internet has been better than hiring an expensive private investigator. To
help ease the search for the best people search site, here are ten helpful tips:

. Gather as much information as you can about the person. Aside from basic
information like the complete name and address, other personal information that can
help in identifying the person such as past addresses, contact numbers, job or
professions, and others can help narrow the search. It will be advisable if you keep
a record of the information that you have from time to time to update your own list.

. Look for several free people search or other free search methods over the
Internet. If the information are useful enough to make free search useful, it will
be an advantage. For example, knowing the exact address or when the person has a
unique or uncommon surname and other techniques in order to make a complicated
search simple can be useful for a free search.
. Free white pages may work for you but for some may not. Pay sites such as
Zabasearch.com and ZoomInfo.com requires some fee but can give detailed results that
you might be looking for.

. Try using reverse search methods. For example, you only have the phone number of
an unknown person; you can use a reverse phone number search for people search of
addresses and personal information using phone numbers. Usually, most of them are
free such as reverse phone search or reverse address lookup.

. Get in touch or talk to people who might have enough knowledge with a lost
relative or missing person. The data you collect from their stories can be very
assistive. You can either talk to them personally or send them letter or e-mail.

. Search engines can help in people search. By entering the name of the person in
search engines of Google or Yahoo!, certain search results may appear but they can
be scattered through online news articles, arrest reports or even forums and blogs.

. Social networks such as Friendster, MySpace, FaceBook, and other online
communities can also help in finding people you want to contact. If you are good at
doing searches in the sites mentioned you can be successful because most of these
sites offers customized profiles that can enable users to use a different name. The
good thing about these sites is that they enabled certain search tools like schools,
affiliations, job and other keyword to find people.

. Blogs are one of the growing online trends today in making personal journal
entries online. The blog-owner's basic information is one of a blog's content. To
find a certain person's blog, there is a blog search site called Technorati.com
where you can do search by typing the name, address, or phone number.

. Potential neighbor search can be another method. Conducting a neighbor research by
interviewing neighbors or searching them using reverse address lookup can be
helpful.
. Public records search sites can be an effective tool that can give comprehensive
and complete results for a person. The best public records site can even guarantee
up-to-date results!
