Easy Ways To Trace A Cell Phone Number

By Paul Turner Marketing.com

If you want to know how to trace a cell phone number then chances are you are receiving prank calls, or are taking those calls from sales people that always seem to call when you are busy doing something else. Whatever the reason these calls are causing you some discomfort in one way or another.

You can trace or find landline numbers easily because these phone numbers are already in the public domain - ever heard of the phone book? But cell phone numbers don't have the same books. Phone networks such as Verizon and sprint don't make it easy for us. There are now some good, websites that make it easy to find cell phone numbers by compiling their on cell phone directories.

A cell phone number directory is the answer. These will allow you to do what is known as a reverse cell phone number look up. This sounds rather grand but basically you enter a cell phone number and the directory uses this as its search field and follows the line of information back to the owner of the phone.

First of all try and find the number for free by simply typing it into Google. Perhaps the owner of the number has entered it somewhere where you may find it. It is a long shot but worth a try.

How a reverse cell phone number works is simple. The better sites will let you enter a number into the cell phone directory before you part with any money. That way you know if there is information before you before you pay. The ones that aren't so good expect you to pay before you know if they have any information - guess which I recommend? You will then be given a screen showing all the information concerning that number, which will include a name and sometimes an address.

People are using cell phones to make more prank calls and even make sales calls because cell phone numbers aren't actually easily available to the public. They think they are protected but this now not the case with the growing number of cell phone directory websites on the market.
