People are drawn to social networks like moths are drawn to candlelight. Why? Because it's hard to keep clear of them! It's virtually very difficult to keep yourself from being sucked into subscribing for a dedicated forum, perhaps connecting with industry pioneers through LinkedIn or clicking the Like button on a Facebook page. Because it's pretty much impossible NOT to be part of any social circle, you can use social networks to your advantage when you're tracking someone down.
The following social networking websites should help kick off your hunt:-
To speed up your hunt, try visiting YoName, Spokeo and Wink. These websites consolidate search results from various social networking websites, even ones that are not mentioned above.
Online Public Records
You can go through online public records to conduct quick but substantial background checks on someone. With only a person's name and birth date, you can find out virtually everything about him, from criminal histories to hospital records. Here are four websites that offer online public records:
. ZabaSearch
. Google
. CriminalSearches
. USA
Death Records
Consider the possibility that the person you're looking for may have already kicked the bucket. You can either look through death indexes or find a grave online.
Death Indexes contain death records listed by state and city. You'll find death certificate indexes, obituaries, burial records and death notices.
Many cemeteries have websites that you can go through to look for graves. Find A Grave and Cemetery Records Online are good places to start.
Go Job Hunting
If you happen to know where the person you are looking for works, you can obtain some of his contact information by tracking down the specific company he works for or the industry he is part of. Jobster.com contains listings of job positions both by name and by industry. If the person you are hunting for is employed or is hunting for a job, chances are you'll find him on that website.
ZoomInfo.com can help you expand your search by providing a way for you to go through companies that he or she may have worked for in the past.
Basic Google Hunt and Google CSE
Most social networking webpages, blogs and forums are indexed through search engines and Google is too big to ignore.
Let's say you were indeed hunting for Mr. John Frederick Doe. On the Google search box, type the name "John Frederick Doe" enclosed in quotes.
Google Custom Search Engines can help you consolidate your searches. Just create and set up your search engine to crawl through the websites mentioned in the previous paragraphs and you have yourself a re-usable "person hunter" right at your fingertips.
