A Google people search guide. Discuss ways to use Google to do people searches. People search is still a challenge on the web, especially when using general search engines like Google and Yahoo. Other services such as LinkedIn, FaceBook, ZoomInfo, and others exist to help refine your people search. However, Google can still be a powerful people search tool for finding information about public figures, business executives, athletes, and others.
Google People Search or Google People Searching can refer to any of the following:
- Using Google to learn about a person: This can be very effective when researching a public figure. For instance a politician, business executive, celebrity, pro athlete, etc. You'll usually be able to find bios, profiles, and articles in the press
- Using Google to find contact information for a person: This is more hit or miss. The Internet is very big, and there are many John Smiths and Jane Does out there. The big challenge is to disambiguate and find the exact person you're looking for. Often it is easier to find the contact information for the business where a person works. Try searching for the business name, then look for an About Us or Contact link.
- Internet 411: You want a phone number. This is also very hit or miss. Try this tool on Google
- Ego Searching: You want to see what comes up when you search on Google for your own name. This is just fun. Give it a try.
