Since writing about 123people at the beginning of March (Maintain Your Reputation With The Help Of 123people) they have let me know about a new development, as they say “The next generation of people search, 123people have expanded to new markets with local sites, making it the first multi-national people search.”

Having already launched in the US, UK, Germany and Austria, 123people is now available in seven countries in total. New localised sites include Switzerland, France and Spain, and available in six languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Catalan.

Local Sites outside the US:

• UK – 123people.co.uk
• Germany – 123people.de
• France – 123people.fr
• Switzerland – 123people.ch
• Spain – 123people.es

Research shows that translation of a service into other languages is one of the best ways to increase user-base.

Three quarters of European Internet users are using social networks. Localised versions of 123people in each country, will enable more people to connect by finding anyone they want to know more about, by retrieving publicly available information from globally accessible databases and searching country-specific websites, local business services and news sources to provide fast and comprehensive results.

www.123people.com is a real-time people search tool, that finds information on anyone you want to know by scouring the ‘Deep Web’ otherwise known as the invisible Web, using an innovative search service. 123people is designed to fundamentally improve the quality of people search on the web, by using an innovative search service.
