Now that cell phones have almost completely replaced landline phones as people’s phone of choice,Free Cell Phone Searches – What They Are and How To Do Them Articles you may have observed that this is all well and good until it comes time to track down and identify some of the users of these numbers.  Unlike the personal information connected to landline numbers (which is easily and freely available), cell phone carriers do not offer public directories that identify the users behind these numbers.

If you’re like most mobile phone users, you probably like to keep the personal information associated with your number private – that is until you may want to locate and identify somebody else.  In such a case, a free cell phone search would be very useful indeed.

Unfortunately, this kind of search does not exist. This is largely to do with privacy matters surrounding wireless numbers.  Be that as it may, there are still ways you can perform a free cell phone search with the aid of a few useful resources found on the Internet. 

When performing this kind of search, you want to be very specific in what you are looking for!  Now, this may sound obvious, but it’s well worth noting that a clear and concise goal will greatly increase the odds for success in your search.  The two most common searches are:

1)    Traditional Lookup – You are looking for a cell phone number associated with a particular person.
2)    Reverse Lookup – You are looking to find a person in connection with a particular wireless number. 

The kind of search you are looking to perform will determine the best methods to use.

However, regardless of which type of search you are looking to conduct, Google is – by far- the number one free cell phone search method.  Just go to Google’s website and type in an exact description of the information you are after.  For example, if you are looking to find out the cell phone number for a particular person, all you would need to do is type in that person’s name immediately followed by the word “cell”. 

If you are looking for a name associated with a certain unknown wireless number, just type the numbers in any number of different ways (i.e, with and without dashes or parenthesis) and check the results for a match.  And while this method may seem like a long shot, you might be surprised how often this actually works.  More people than you think make their wireless number available for anyone to discover on the Internet. 

If this method of free cell phone search doesn’t produce the desired results, you can always try accessing a directory like the National Cellular Directory.  This directory offers information in exchange for your wireless number being included in its database.

If none of these methods end up working for you, and you still really want to find out information you after, you will need to go beyond a free cell phone search.  There are more than a few good paid reverse phone directories on the Internet that can provide you with fast, reliable, and accurate information.
