If you are like me, there are times when you misplace someone's home address. You may have their cell number in your phone's address book, but you still don't know how or where they live. You need to search online for their address using just the cell number, right? Good news. You can do it with ease!



Believe it or not, there is a free way to track down an address associated with a cell phone number. The first thing you will need to do is choose a search engine to use. You might consider starting with Yahoo, MSN or Google.

Just enter the cell number into the search bar and see was returns. It is quite possible that you will get the name and address of the cell phone owner with this technique. Try entering the number in variety of different formats. Examples of this include changing out the dashes for periods and spaces. This works because people use their cell numbers online in classified ads and in newspaper ads and do not realize it is being indexed by search engines. Others put their cell numbers on blogs, MySpace profiles, Facebook profiles, website guest books as well as other places. Therefore, when you search for the number the search engine finds it. This only works if the information exists online.

If it does not work, you will have to search using a paid service. You are not limited with the choices when it comes to services offering reverse cell number search features. Intelius is one of the very finest people search sites on the Internet today. Finding information associated with a cell phone number is one of their specialties.

If you have tried sites like Intelius but cannot find what you are looking for, it may be time to either give up your search or take drastic measures. These drastic measures may include hiring a private investigator. Today's investigators have access to tools and databases that the public does not. Therefore, they can often find the address you are looking for, but it is going to cost you.

Fees for a private eye can vary greatly depending on the location, the experience of the investigator and the difficulty of your request. For a simple cell phone to address trace, this should only cost you $75 to $150 per search. It is pricey indeed, but you will get guaranteed results
