Many people have tried free people search sites on the Internet to find lost friends or family. Many of those that use these services become very frustrated at the experience. Most of the free people search sites that they try to use turn out to be less than desirable. Many of these services will allow you to conduct your search but then want payment to provide you with the data on your subject. There are ways to conduct a free people search on the net. That do not involve spending a dime or a lot of time searching through phone books. The Internet gives us all the tools that we need to find anyone at anytime. Using Google search is an obvious choice in our investigations. Most people do not use this tool to it's fullest. Just typing in a subject's name is not enough and will probably give you thousands of pages that you would have to search through. Mix up your searches. Include your subject's last known address and place of employment. Search schools that the person attended or even clubs and organizations that they belonged to. This will bring up more laser targeted results that are easy to use. Face book, My space and other social services are also a great tool in our arm chair detective's toolbox. These social networking sites are very popular and visited by millions of people every day. What makes these services such great tools is the fact that they allow their members to create profiles. These profiles contain tons of personal information ready for us to use. A lot of these services also allow you to conduct searches on the profiles. Contrary to all the advertising you see; free people search services do not exist. There are free phone book sites but you cannot access public information for free. If you want to use a service that provides you with accessible data that is useful, you have to pay for it. A paid people search service gives you access to data such as criminal, civil and marriage records. This information that is available on their databases is received from record depositories all over the US. While useful these sites average $15 to $75 for a membership.
