Cell phone searches are very difficult to achieve online. The reason for this is that most land lines are listed in phone books and can be accessed by dialing information.

Cell phones on the other hand, are not. A successful cell phone search online is difficult, but not impossible. Your first step should be typing the cell phone number you want information on into a major search engine, like Google. You would be surprised at how many people get hits using this simple cell phone search technique. This cell phone search technique works because the Internet is such a huge place. People list cell phone numbers on business sites, social sites and similar online places. Here is the only source I’ve found online for a truly free cell phone search.

Yahoo People Search: Very simple site that doesn’t distract you from your cell phone search.

UNLISTED PHONE SEARCH

Most people decide to have their phone numbers unlisted in phone directories for different reasons. This doesn’t mean that the phone number can’t be found. To start an unlisted phone search you need to find as much relevant information about the person as possible. Armed with this info it’s time to hit the Internet.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again… Every search you perform should begin with the major search engines. Start by typing in the person’s name you’re performing the search on. No luck? Add more information to the search. (First name+last name+state of residence and so on.) When all else fails try these free sources I’ve provided for your unlisted phone search.

• Yahoo People Search: Many people underestimate the power of Yahoo People Search. It’s a great starting point for any free search you decide to perform online.

• Google: Yes, Google! Google’s phonebook directory is huge! Their index is the largest on the Internet, but most people don’t know how to use Google for an unlisted number search. Here’s the secret to finding unlisted numbers using Google. Go to Google and type in, phonebook: followed by…

First name, last name, zip code

First name, last name, area code

First name, last name, state

First name, last name, city

Last name, city, state

The reason this technique works is the fact that most people end up providing a phone number online for purchases they’ve made, sites they’ve joined and the list goes on. If all else fails here is a list of sites that charge a fee for their services.
