The Truth About The 100% Free Background Check

By Sherilyn Abild


Over the past few years, there have been a tremendous increase of people conducting a 100% free background check. Traditionally, these searches used to be not only expensive but also very much complicated to conduct. Now things are different for anyone can already conduct a low-cost or even 100% free background check on someone and the process is really very much easier unlike before. This article will be discussing about the benefits of both free resources and paid services in order to dig up dirt on employees, renters, neighbors, spouses and anyone else you can think of.

The reality that this 100% free background checks present to us...

If you think this "100% free background check" that we are talking about would be as easy as Google, then better think again. Though it may not be surprising to find out a lot of these services claiming that they can let you have all the vital information for free, do not get too excited with it since you will soon just find out that there is always a cost that you have to pay at the end of the process.

Basically, you must know that there is no REAL "for profit" company to help you out when you want to really conduct a 100% free background check. Maybe it would be a great option of you become a bit of a detective and do some investigating yourself.

So what can you possibly find about a certain person when you will be doing your own 100% free background check?

Since you have already established your mind into doing the process by yourself, its time to get to work. Clearly, you are not allowed to have the privilege to access the records the big companies and investigators do. So you just have to make use of the person search engines, Google and social networking websites in order to dig up information on a person.

In order to get started, you can simply Google a person's name using parenthesis around the data so you get exact results. To understand more, perhaps I will be conducting a search for a John Doe, then I would type it into Google as "John Doe". If you want to pin point your search more, then perhaps you can all add the location of the person. You can put a city or state after the name; ie. "John Doe" Florida.

This in-depth Google search will let you know if this person has posted anything online or if other people have posted stuff online about them. In fact, I myself was able to know that there are several interesting facts about potential business associates using this technique and it works great as a first step in the 100% free investigative process.

One very essential thing you must consider when you would be doing this is to always verify that you are reading about the right person, and that means the person you are searching about. Literally, the person you are searching for may be sharing the same exact name with not just one, but may be even thousands of other people out there.

Few points to consider at the end of the process of conducting a 100% free background check...

Even though you have only encountered a proper Google search as the first step in your investigative process, still there are several other strategies that you can incorporate in order to accumulate more information. Before really starting to focus on working in it, you must be able to decide if you want to spend long hours looking for data or you can just pay a highly respected company to get you some results instantly. The decision and answer to this would really depend so much on why you are conducting it in the first place.
