Basic Internet People Locate Tools

Internet Search Engines
Occasionally you may be lucky and locate a resume, web page or
some other identifying information on someone by simply submitting a search
using your target's name on a major Internet search engine. Although the actual
success ratio may not be good, some have had success with this simple method and
therefore it may be worthy of a few minutes of your time.
Internet People Locators
Numerous free people directories have popped up all over the
Internet. Many of these directories have millions of entries including telephone
numbers and e-mail addresses. Using an Internet directory to find a female
friend who has since married can be difficult if you do not know their new
married surname. However, quite often one does know a few details about his
friend's parents (or bothers and sisters) such as their last name and general
address. It may be a much simpler task to locate your friends parents using a
general people search engine on the Internet and then once located, give them a
call.
Internet Registries
There are many different types of registries including military,
university and high school related that have been setup all over the Internet.
If you have some information on where your target attended school or other clubs
he attended, searching for a related registry may prove fruitful. The majority
of these registry sites provide a database that allows individuals to add
messages about themselves. Many of these sites are geared towards a specific
group of people (ex: SunnySide High School Grads) and others are more general
(ex: Veterans). When visiting a registry, one can usually search using various
keywords such as by surname in hopes of finding an entry left by the individual
they are searching for.
News groups
The news group soc.net-people has been setup to aid others in
locating people. Simply post a message asking for help.
E-mail Addresses
Many people in search of lost friends or family have compiled
lists of e-mail addresses for everyone that matches the surname of the person
they are looking for. Once they have completed their list, they simply send each
address an e-mail. Quite often such an endeavor will produce positive results.
Even if the e-mail does not reach the person you are looking for, it may reach
someone who knows them.
