Phone Numbers And Listing Information Online
By Dirk C Wallace
Do you ever get mysterious phone numbers appearing on your caller
ID? It could be a creditor, an ex-lover or someone else you don't
wish to speak to. There is only one way to know for sure:
www.anywho.com!
This site will let you type in a phone number and will quickly
provide you with the directory listing, whether it's a business
or an individual. However, you won't find cell phones at this
free listing site.
Cell Phone Details Online
Another site, www.reversephonedetective.com,
allows you the ability to look up a cell phone number and gain
access to the person's name, address, phone carrier and household
members for $14.95. Or, you can gain unlimited lookups for $39.95/year
to end the constant wondering.
Google is a good, free place to quickly look up telephone numbers
that are listed in business directories. If you received a mysterious
call on your home or cell phone, simply type the number into the
search window and it will tell you the name, home address, email
address and number of the person calling, if it is listed in the
phone book or online yellow pages at least. Of course in this
day and age, most people can review their options and have traded
their home phones for cell phones, which aren't as easily traceable.
Google Is The Quickest Search Engine
A growing number of people fail to update their white pages information
too. Yet it is almost instinctive to type an unknown number into
Google to see what comes up. If you know the business name and
location but need the number, then Google is probably the quickest
search available.
If you're in the middle of a divorce battle or you suspect your
spouse is cheating, then you may need to look up more than just
phone numbers. Hiring a private detective can cost you a huge
wad of cash just to find out information you could look up yourself.
There is no such thing as a free listing for background information.
Everything For A Fee
You'll probably have to pay a $15 fee to access the information,
which someone has to pay to look up for you. However, to satisfy
your curiosity and gain court evidence, it's well worth the fee
to get your hands on everything from police reports, bankruptcies,
liens and property reports to marriages, divorces, births and
deaths. It may seem shady, but sometimes you have to be ruthless
to win the battle.
Super Pages Online
One of the best places to find phone numbers is www.superpages.com,
which acts as the online yellow pages and white pages. By registering,
you can customize your own personal address book and save up to
fifty contacts. You can also browse local business listings by
proximity to your home, work or school.
If you spend most of your time on-the-go, then you can subscribe
to Superpages on your cell phone; Blackberry and Java Phone users
will get this service free, while Verizon wireless and US Cellular
customers may pay a small monthly subscription fee. In addition
to gaining access to addresses and telephone numbers, you'll also
receive website URLs, video ads, reviews and maps.

Did You Know This About Business Directories?
What is the most common type of business directory?
The most common type of business directory
is the one found in your local phone book. But if your business
is primarily online, you will need to advertise on the internet
to increase your customer base.
The phone book still works great because
people are able to find the information that is in the phone book
by searching online. There are business directories online that
are gaining in popularity. You can visit
www.business.com/
and pay to have your business listed.
There are also popular websites that will
list your business information for a fee. Another option is to
join an affiliate program directory. The affiliate program works
by users seeing your information on a website and then clicking
on the link which takes the customer to your website.
