I know it&#8217;s driving you crazy, but plug your ears and hang in there: the holidays are here!<\/p>\n<p>The holidays are the time of year where we give (and receive) presents, spend valuable time with loved ones, and eat a truly shameful amount of sugar cookies baked in the shape of Christmas trees. It&#8217;s also a time where we reconnect with family and friends we may have lost touch with during the course of the year.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s where Spokeo comes in. Large numbers of our subscribers use Spokeo&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/\">people search<\/a> technology to find information on loved ones and friends during the holidays. We offer a few different kinds of searches:<\/p>\n<p>1. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/\">Name Search<\/a><\/strong> (e.g. &#8216;Santa Claus&#8217;). Remember: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/compass\/spokeos-newest-feature-location-auto-suggest\/\">you can add city and state too<\/a> if you want to narrow it down.<br \/>\n2. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/email-search\">Email Search<\/a><\/strong> (e.g. &#8216;<a href=\"mailto:santaclaus@northpole.gov\">santaclaus@northpole.gov<\/a>&#8216;)<br \/>\n3. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/reverse-phone-lookup\">Phone Search<\/a> <\/strong>(e.g., &#8216;555-123-4567&#8217;)<br \/>\n4. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spokeo.com\/username-search\">Username Search<\/a><\/strong> (e.g. &#8216;SantaClaus99&#8217;)<\/p>\n<p>To perform a search, simply go to our main page and type in the name, email address, phone number or online username into the search bar and hit enter; our site immediately identifies which kind of lookup you are performing and generates a full report within seconds. Do you want to send out Christmas cards to your out-of-state cousins but don&#8217;t know their address? No problem &#8211; enter their first and last name or phone number and you&#8217;ll have their address faster than you can say &#8220;ten lords a-leaping.&#8221; Not sure what to get your friend for a gift?
