Are there Cell Phone Number Listings or Directories Online?

The internet has gained much popularity ever since it was introduced in the market. At present, internet connections are not only mainly found in large organizations and offices but also in residential homes as well. It seems that having a computer and an internet connection has become a necessity these days.

Aside from establishing continuous communication with your friends and love ones, the internet is used for other reasons like gaining new friends and in accessing online work opportunities. You also use the internet when doing your researches for school so why not use it in looking for someone owning a particular cell phone number?

Now, suppose you have a cell phone number but you don’t know who owns it. There is a way to find out the owner of the number and if you’re that curious, you can start your search now. But is there an online cell phone number listing or directory that you can use?

Honestly speaking, there is no such thing as an ‘official’ directory or listing for cell phone numbers. The directories available online are mostly for landline telephone numbers and not for cellular phone numbers. Now this may sound bad news to you but don’t get discouraged yet because more and more volunteer directories surfacing and they are much gaining popularity.

Search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN can be used for reverse phone search but make sure that you know how to do it. Usually the format is like this – “xxx-xxx-xxxx” and if you can’t get your expected result, you can remove the first 3 digits of the cell number and then type “xxx-xxxx”. Do this in all three search engines and compare the results. If you’re quite lucky, you may be able to get a profile of the person behind the number and other important information.

By trying the volunteer sites on the net, you can also have a greater chance in finding the person behind the number. You simply type the cell phone number that you have on any reverse phone search site and then the results are displayed on the screen in seconds or minutes.

Here are some of the sites that you can try:

• nationalcellulardirectory.com – you can conduct your search for free on this site but you first need to provide your cell phone number and add it to the site’s database
• free-reverse-cell-phone-directory.com – if you’re not comfortable adding your cell phone number to the database of the site that you’re using, you can choose this site because without providing your own cell number, you can still conduct your reverse phone search
• cellphonedirectory.com – this is probably the most popular site for cell phone number lookup services; the site has a large database and not only that, you can and remove your cell number anytime you like and use the services for free

The three sites mentioned above are legal and you can always visit them anytime you wish. If you’re looking for a name and you just have a cell number, visit their sites now and use their free service. Who knows, you may be able to find out the person behind the cell number.

Even if there is no ‘official’ directory or listings for cell numbers, you can make use of the legal volunteer sites on the internet. This is still good news because with or without the official site, you may be able to get the information that you need.
