People Search - People Finder

Criminal Background Check has earned a reputation, one search at a time through millions of searches over more than 15 years, because they understand that a people search is a tool to get information.

People leave behind all kinds of records: phone numbers, births and deaths, marriages, property. A people search culls many databases, to find both current and historical information. By cross-referencing and comparing information from many different sources over many years, complex search algorithms sift through and verify data, narrowing the thousands of bits of information down so that they relate to the one person being looked for.

People are incredibly mobile: almost 20% of population of the United States moves every year. There are several million marriages and divorces every year. Without already knowing who and where they are now, you can't find them in a phone directory or social networking index.

The basic questions in any good story are who, what, when, and where. As people move through life, losing touch with old friends, those questions grow. In a philosophical sense, that's what a people search is: it's a way of answering those questions.
So, what is a people search in practical terms?

What is a people search to you? There is no reason to leave the big questions – who, what, when, and where – unanswered. Not when Criminal Background Check accesses multiple premium people search databases, over two billion records from public records, including national, state, and municipal records, plus experts to help assist with any people search.

But what is a people search used for? There is no one-size-fits-all people search. Sometimes, you need a current address and phone number. Maybe you're nostalgic for your college roommate, with nothing to go on but her maiden name and an old college town. Different people searches take different kinds of information – phone numbers, old addresses, maiden names, current names – and then find specific results, from background checks to social networking searches. Each people search is a specialized tool.
