Many people would have the impulse to check the integrity of someone online; it might be for the sake of a job interview or checking someone whom someone close to you is dating. There are many free based services that you can use for the sake of verifying the integrity of the person, find out something suspicious about them or uncovering any criminal activity they might have engaged themselves in the past. Despite the paid services you can simply go to the internet, use the social platforms or the content that is found online as well.

If your response is that you must find the information on others that might be suspicious or otherwise then it is better that if you begin with yourself. Because charity begins at home, on the other hand you might not know what kind of things you will find about yourself as well. It would be good that if you want to make a background check on yourself, you might come around the information that has been stopping you from landing your dream job or even buying a home or car that is your dream. Your credit card report or other insurance information. Furthermore, it would provide you with a proper insight into what your landlord, banking partner or employer would find out about you if they decided on running a background check on you.

Using the search engines
The first thing that should spring in your mind is using the search engines, for example if you consider using Google then make sure that you provide the search engine with the relative keywords about the person you want to investigate. Start by typing in their full name as it would help to narrow down the search and when you are confident that you have found their photo online or some other type of solid information that you can tread on later.

Start with something simple and then continue exploring or branching out. But here you need to be very specific with the information you provide to these search engines because the more relevant your provided information is the more validated or specific results you will get from the search engine that you are using.



Using social networking sites
If you want to have a taste of “background check on myself” then it is advised that you begin with Facebook or other similar networking sites as these are teeming with all the information someone could want on someone else to validate their character. You will be able to find the content that is voluntarily shared on the internet thus depicting their true character, on the other hand you will also find their aliases, type or nature of friends they have online or what kind of activity they engage in over the online platforms.

Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and twitter are the online social media sites that you can use for the sake of retrieving important information on the subject. Although make sure that you have something specific to begin with and then converge on the information funneled back to you.
