Press Release Summary: If you are trying to look for that long lost college friend
or a relative whom you have never spoken to for a long, long time, doing people
search would be the best thing to do. You may be thinking that you do not have the
money to afford a private investigator to do the people search for you. You need not
worry. Today, you can actually do your very own investigation at the very comfort of
your own homes. The Internet has allowed us access to hundred and even millions of
databases containing per

Press Release Body: There are now hundreds of sites over the Internet that do people
search. Some sites offer to give their services for free; while there are also some
that require a certain fee for access to exclusive databases. If you want to do
people search for free, you can use general search engines and use your subject's
name, address or any kind of personal information as the keywords for your search.
Aside from search engines, you can also search in social networking sites such as
Facebook or Friendster. There are also sites that require you to pay a certain fee
before getting access to their databases. These are the more recommended means for
doing a people search.

Now that you know your option, the question you are probably asking now is "why
should I bother to use the paid services when I can do a people search for free?".
There are a lot of reasons why. First, if you do not want to shuffle through pages
and pages of your results looking for the ones you truly need, there are actually
paid sites that offer to do specialized kinds of searches that will only give you
the most relevant results. Second, if you want to make sure that the results you get
are guaranteed to be updated and complete, then a paid site would be the best
solution.

With the emergence of the Internet, more and more public records are starting to be
stored in computers. Even the government has made electronic databases over public
records to allow citizen better and more efficient access to these documents. Now,
even yellow pages and white pages have websites of their own. There you can have
access to basic information such as names, addresses and phone numbers. As usually,
cell phone number cannot be obtained using this database. When you need to look for
a cell phone number, the online search directories would be the best place to look.
If you want to do a more comprehensive or in-depth investigation, there are also
background check services available online.

For whatever purpose, the Internet has made people search more accessible and more
doable for many of us. From a simple address search to a more in-depth investigation
of a subject's background records, all these are made possible through the Internet.
