The cost to find someone using a people search tool varies.
Some people search tools are free, but as with anything in life, you usually get what you pay for. Free people search tools provide only very limited information — they make you pay for everything but the most basic information. And often the information that they do provide for free isn’t as accurate as the information you’d get from a paid people search tool.
In all our tests, the paid people search tools are definitely better than the free people search tools. In fact, there’s really no comparison.
How much do they cost? Well, it depends on what information you’re searching for, and how often you plan to search for different people.
We believe there are only a few paid people search tools that are good enough to consider. Here’s a comparison of their prices.
