SearchPeopleFree explained
SearchPeopleFree is a website for looking up publicly available information for US citizens. Results include a variety of identifiable information, including but not limited to the following:
- Full name
- Age
- Current and former addresses
- Recent and former phone numbers
- Likely relatives and associates
- Corporations or businesses with which they’re associated
The website also offers ways to get even more in-depth information; however, that might redirect you to different websites where you might need to pay for information such as criminal records, bankruptcies and foreclosures, among other things.
You can look up people using names, addresses, phone numbers or even email addresses. The search term you’re using doesn’t need to be current, either. Numbers, addresses or email addresses associated with the person in the past work as well.Â
Additionally, if you don’t have any of the aforementioned information, you can start a direct search by looking through their name directory, starting with either a list of popular last names or last names in alphabetical order.Â
Removing your information from SearchPeopleFree
Since the website taps publicly available databases to fetch your information, it’s almost impossible to remove yourself from their search results completely. However, it does offer an opt-out feature that’ll remove your records from their search results.Â
To do so, head to this page and enter your email address. Once validated, you can search for your personal records and remove them from the website.Â
Top 3 SearchPeopleFree alternatives
In case you can’t find the information you’re looking for, try either of these three SearchPeopleFree alternatives.
Spokeo
Spokeo can look up a particular person in the United States starting with their name, email, address, phone number, or email ID. The site also comes with a mobile app, so using it on the go is a much more cohesive experience. The database is also rather expansive meaning there’s a good chance you’ll be able to find just about anyone.

TruthFinders
TruthFinders focuses on finding the right information instead of the most information, and because of that, the information you’re looking for will be in most cases, accurate and rather well-organised. It also provides additional details like criminal and/or military records, education and more. It does, however, require you to pay in case you want to download an entire report on the person.Â

TruePeopleSearch
A similar website to SearchPeopleFree, TrueSearchPeople will I’ve you access to millions of US citizens’ information. Depending on who you’re looking for, you might even be able to get your hands on restricted location data. That said, the database isn’t as expansive as SearchPeopleFree, and the site doesn’t give you as much information.Â
