Email is one of the most popular methods of communication around the world. While 4.26 billion people had email accounts in 2022, that number is projected to be upwards of 4.73 billion in 2024. For this reason, knowing someone’s email can help you get in touch with them and even help companies generate leads.
Unfortunately, email information isn’t always easy to find. Unless someone gives you their email address, there’s no online database you can use to find their email right away. Instead, you have to get creative.
The good news is that we can help you find someone’s email with any of our people search tools. Furthermore, we provide some additional creative methods that can help you out. Read on to learn more.
How to Find Someone’s Email With PublicRecord.com
At PublicRecord, we offer a few ways to find someone’s email. Each method is viable, it just depends on the information you have available when you start your search.
We always recommend using one of our people search tools to begin your search because they’re more affordable than tools like Hunter.io. Plus, they’re more accurate than Googling someone’s name and hoping for the best.
Learn more about the email lookup tools we offer at PublicRecord.
People Search
The simplest tool we offer to find someone’s email is our people search tool. When you run a people search with PublicRecord, all you need is someone’s first and last name, city, and state.
From there, we can help you find their email address, along with anything that’s a public record. This includes additional contact information, their phone number, address, and more information about their email as well. In fact, you can find information including:
- Criminal records
- Civil court records
- Marriage and divorce records
- Social media accounts
- Dating profiles
- Relatives
- Education history
- Work history
Not only is our people search tool great at helping you find someone’s email, but it’s also great at verifying someone’s identity overall. For this reason, we recommend starting with PublicRecord if you want to find someone’s email address.
Even if we can’t help you find someone’s email address right away, we can at least point you in the right direction.
Address Lookup
When you want to find someone’s email you don’t even need their name when you work with PublicRecords.com. As long as you have their address, we can help you run a reverse address lookup that can help you find their email address.
To get started, navigate to our address lookup tool. Enter the person’s street, city, and state. From there, we’ll help you narrow your search results and provide you with some basic information about that address. Then, you can open the full report to learn everything that’s publicly available about the property.
While this includes information about their email address, you can also find the following:
- Information about property liens
- Tax information
- Who lives at an address
- People who rent at the property
- Businesses associated with the property
- How a property is zoned
- Information about the title
- Court records involving the property
Depending on the address, you may find some or all of this information within our comprehensive full report. At the minimum, you’ll find their email address or we can show you some of the best places to look.
Phone Number Lookup
Don’t have someone’s name or address? Don’t worry, our phone number lookup tool has you covered. Our phone number lookup tool is one of the best tools you can use to find someone’s email if you only have their phone number.
All you need to do is enter their phone number into the tool and we’ll do the rest. Plus, you don’t even have to know their city or state; it can help, and you can usually find information about their location from the area code or caller ID.
Once you enter their phone number we can provide you with anything that’s publicly available about the phone number, including email addresses associated with the account. Additional information we can help you find includes:
- The name of who the phone number is registered to
- The phone service provider
- Additional phone numbers on the account
- Where a phone number is located
- Online accounts the phone number is registered to
Not only can you find someone’s email from a phone number, but you can also find out much more when you work with PublicRecords.com.
Additional Email Lookup Tools
We always recommend starting with PublicRecord.com, but there are additional email lookup tools you can leverage. Tools including social media, Google, and even email scraping websites like Hunter.io can help you find an email address. Learn more about these email lookup tools below.
Most emails are hosted by a domain, which is subsequently hosted by a server. A domain is the name used for a website. Simply put, you can enter @website.com to try and find someone’s email if you know what business they work for.
We recommend trying this method for businesses first because there is less overlap. For example, if someone has an @gmail.com or @yahoo.com domain, millions of people can have a similar email like “[email protected].” On the other hand, someone who works for a company is less likely to have overlap if you know the name of the business.
To run the search with email, all you need to do is enter their name and the domain into the search bar. From there, Google should be able to fetch the email for you. You can also run a Google Advanced Search, which allows you to add more parameters to the search.
That said, some people may have private emails, so this doesn’t work for everyone. If you’re not having any luck with Google, you can try one of our people search tools instead.
Social Media
Social media has grown into one of the largest industries in the United States. For this reason, many people have social media accounts.
What makes this helpful for finding someone’s email is the fact that most social media platforms require an email to sign up. You can search the email on the platform and the social media platforms will become your own personal email lookup tool.
When using social media as an email lookup tool, you’ll have the best luck when using platforms such as Facebook and LinkedIn. Facebook is great if you need a personal email, while LinkedIn is ideal for professional emails. Platforms like Instagram, Snapchat, and X (formerly Twitter) can also help.
While social media is effective, it helps to know what social media platforms they’re on so you can refine your search. Fortunately, any of our people search tools can reveal social media platforms you can use to find their email.
Hunter.io
Hunter.io is one of the industry leaders when it comes to paid email lookup tools.
If you need to find someone’s professional email, all you need to do is enter their name and the domain of the company you want to search for them at. From there, the tool will comb through public records and websites to find the information for you. This makes it one of the fastest options for professional email lookup tools.
The problem with Hunter.io is how much it costs. Plans cost more than some of the tools we covered earlier, and you might even have better luck finding emails at the enterprise level with one of our people search plans instead. So, we only recommend a tool like Hunter.io if you’re out of options.
