What can you use the application for?
Pipl is a web search engine, however unlike many other search engines this one is designed specifically to search for people rather than just websites. If you’ve ever tried to search for people on the internet using a regular search engine then you will realize just how difficult it is. This is because there are lots of different sites that could mention these people. Pipl on the other hand is designed specifically for finding people. Instead of searching all of the internet, it searches social networking sites and instant messengers to make sure that you find who you’re looking for as quickly as possible. It’s a very powerful search that can find even the most elusive of people. It uses a deep web search to find anyone that you might like to find.
What is the history and popularity of the application?
Pipl was launched in 2007 and has quickly become one of the most popular people search engines on the internet. It’s so popular because it really works; it searches the deep net and returns anyone that you could think of. Everyone is on the internet nowadays, so you shouldn’t have a problem.
What are the differences to other applications?
There are many different reasons why you might like to search for someone on the internet, you might be curious how your ex’s are doing, what your classmates are up to, or even just to find a long last family member. Searching on Google or other popular search engines will mean that you get overwhelmed with results. Pipl is different and it works by searching the deep web, this is the invisible part of the internet that you don’t normally see. Most normal search engines cannot access the deep web and have no interest in accessing it. The majority of personal information is stored in the deep web and so normal search engines will not be able to access or retrieve it. This information just remains hidden.
How does the application look and feel to use?
Using Pipl is very easy; you just need to enter a name, surname and the country. The country will automatically default to where you are from, which makes it even easier to use. You will then get a list of people similar to a normal search engine. These results are categorized depending on where they came from. Clicking the results takes you to the profiles or WebPages which mention them. This makes it really easy to track down people you know.
How does the registration process work?
There is no registration on Pipl, it works just like a normal search engine and does not require registration before you can use it.
What does it cost to use the application?
Using Pipl is free, the site does not offer any paid membership plans.
Who would you recommend the application to?
Pipl is a useful tool for anyone that’s looking to track down long lost relatives or people that they haven’t seen for a long time. It’s more effective than other forms of web search because it searches on sites that are normally ignored. This is a very powerful people search engine.
