From time to time, I will discover that
I have a phone number but no address
for a particular friend or business.
There is one tool that is especially
helpful when I need to do an address
check. That tool is the online Yellow
Pages.
Whether you live in Canada or the USA,
you can locate and use this tool from
any browser. You will be asked to enter
the person's or business' name, city
and province. You will then be presented
with a list of selections to choose
from. Doing an address check is also
very helpful when you are looking for
a job. If you just have a company name
and possibly the city that the business
is found in, you can do an address check.
The url for the American site is www.yellowpages.com
and the Canadian equivalent is located
at www.yellowpages.ca Once you have
completed your address check, you can
go one step further and enter the address
into a tool such as Yahoo! Maps.
This will allow you to get driving directions
or map our a bus route to the location
of your choice. Another situation that
is made easier by running an address
check, is when you want to send a card
to a friend. Many times you will only
have their phone number or maybe an
email address. However, using the online
Yellow Pages you can find their compete
mailing address. If for some reason,
you are unable to do an address check
using the online Yellow Pages, you can
also search the company name by entering
it into the Google search engine. If
the company you are searching has a
website, you can likely find their physical
address by clicking on the 'Contact
Us' section of their website. You might
also be able to do an address check
by means of a reverse telephone number
look-up.
These tools can also be found online.
To find the person's or company's address,
you will need to enter their telephone
number. This method of doing an address
check is not always successful, but
is another option to try if you are
really stuck.
You can also browse through the telephone
book listings in your attempt to do
an address check. Look up the person
or company name. Many times at least
a partial address will be listed. There
are many ways you can do an address
check. The web is an excellent place
to start in your search and offers many
avenues and methods that you can employ
in carrying out your address check. |
