Doing a free reverse e-mail address gives you only some information about the e-mail address. Usually, it does not go more than the city and stated of the owner of the email address. In exceptional cases, you may stumble on more information if the owner of the email leaves their personal details on sites such as face book, myspace, twitter and the likes. But for people who hardly use the Internet or for people who are not members of the social networking groups, it may be hard to get tangible information on their email addresses. The free directories are good when you need just the city and state of the owner of the e-mail in question.
But in cases where you need more information such as the address and phone number, marital status and other information, you may have to use the paid services. A paid email reverse lookup is much easier. So far you are a member; you can conduct searchs on just about any e-mail address.
