Free Background Check offers are a dirty little trick

When first searching for someones background check online, you are bombarded with offers of FREE record searches. "Just type in the persons name you want to search, right here, FREE". That's about all you get to do, type their name in for free. Your then brought to a page telling you to get the "Full Report" for a fee. I really really hate this. I don't mind paying for a good service at all... I just hate someone trying to trick me into it.

There are many reasons someone may want to perform a background check or people search, and many benefits of having a service. Small business owners may want to run a thorough check on a potential employee or even when dealing with another business. Landlords may want to perform a bankruptcy or tenant check and parents may want to know more about a babysitter or nanny. Knowing everything from felonies to fraudulent claims can help you better determine whether or not a person is worth your time.

A good background check services wont only have a persons criminal record on file. They should also include a database with criminal and inmate records, civil, bankruptcy, marriage, death, sex offender registry list, property, military, current phone and address records... the list goes on.

Another KEY feature one should keep in mind when choosing a search service is the ability to perform unlimited searches. Most record companies will try and make you pay for just a single search. The good news is there are sites out there that offer YEARS of unlimited searching for a single membership price. The price to join is usually cheaper than what it would cost to get a single report from a non membership site ($30-$50).

So when your seeking a background check site make sure they offer a single small payment to join with UNLIMITED searching capability. A database that is updated often, and ALWAYS a MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. See more about background checks at
