ZabaSearch

• ZabaSearch bills itself as a totally free people search tool. The site uses Internet searches as well as phone company data to give very basic information on the person searched for such as home address and home phone number. In addition, ZabaSearch provides a pairing with "US Search" if the person doing the search is looking for more detailed information including a full background check. ZabaSearch allows users to search for people either by name or by phone number.
  
  

Spokeo

• Spokeo is a free people search tool as long as the users don't need a lot of information. The site bills itself as "not your grandma's White Pages," and tries to deliver on that promise by pulling information from websites around the web in order to gather various pieces of information. Spokeo allows users to search by name, email, phone, username and friends and when a user performs a search, the site begins a crawl across the World Wide Web. Spokeo will give the user a glance of the information they can have access to for free, but in order to get in-depth info, users will have to become members on either a three-month, six-month or yearly basis from $3.95 a month to $4.95 a month depending on the subscription length.
