About WhitePages
WhitePages is an online directory that offers background checks, contact information, and other directory-type services. The company was founded in 1997 by Alex Algard. Algard started the company while he was studying at Stanford. The idea arose when he was looking for a friend’s contact information. He contacted the phone company to obtain the number, and the phone company provided him with the wrong telephone number. He used all of his savings to purchase the WhitePages domain for $900. What started as a hobby while he was working a full-time job, WhitePages soon became on the largest online directories. WhitePages is privately owned. The WhitePages headquarters are located in Seattle, WA. The current Chief Executive Officer is Leigh McMillan. Alex Algard still serves as the Executive Chairman of the company.
