There are a number of ways of finding information on specific people on the web including using services like Pipl Search as well as regular search engines. Depending on the service or search engine the user can enter variables like middle initial, company, technical areas of competence, geographical location where they last lived or worked etc. The more related variables you enter, the more likely you will get to the correct name first.

Pipl searches not only for contact information of a person, but it also combines the web search functionality of Zoominfo. This “deep dive” search includes sites like mySpace, Facebook, Friendster, Linkedin, Hoover’s, SEC, and Amazon.

Other good people search engines include ZabaSearch, another popular (and free) people and public information search engine. ZabaSearch offers both basic and advanced search options, as well as a few premium services for a fee.
