How to Do a Free Cell Phone Search

[ad_1]

If you want to look up a mobile phone number, there isn't a nice big printed telephone directory you can use, like you do for home telephone numbers. That is because as soon as the book was printed and distributed, half of the information would be out of date as people cancel their contracts, or change their cell phones so often. Luckily, you can use the worldwide web to do your cell phone number research. Whether you have a person's name and want to find their mobile phone number, or you have a cell phone number and want to find out who it belongs to, you should be able to find the information you need with a few simple internet-based searches. And best of all, you can do these searches for free.

Using social networking sites to lookup cell number for free:

Many social networking sites, like Facebook, are now publishing phone numbers on their users' profile pages. You can use these sites to do three types of searches -

1. If the person has their profile set on the least private of settings, then their cell phone number will be easy to see. Use the search tool and type in the name, or cell phone number you are researching. If you don't get result it may be because the person has their privacy setting set to 'friends only' or 'friends and their friends only'.

2. If the person is a friend of yours, click on their profile and you may see their cell phone number.

3. If the person is a friend of a friend of yours, then your friend will be able to see the cell phone number. Message them and ask if they will pass it on to you.

Using search engines to lookup cell number for free:

If the cell phone is listed anywhere on the internet, and many are, you should be able to find it with a search engine. Just type in the name, or cell phone number, hit search, and see what comes back. Try all of the major search engines as they will bring up different results. If you already have any information related to the number, such as a town or state, then add that to your search term as it may help narrow down the results.

The easiest way to lookup mobile number for free:

By far the easiest way to lookup a mobile number is to use an online directory. Just type in the name or number, and the directory will ask you to give some personal details about yourself. This information about you is requested for three reasons. Firstly it stops businesses being able to abuse the directory and carry out large numbers of free searches daily. Secondly, it helps populate the directory. Thirdly, it helps pay for the directory as it will probably be used by marketing companies. You will not be charged for anything, but you may get a sales call or marketing email. Once you have entered the information requested, the directory will bring back all the details it has stored in relation to that name or cell phone number.

Before spending a cent of researching a mobile phone number., make sure you try out these free techniques first.
