### What is the difference between white pages and Whitepages?"White pages" is a general term for a residential phone book directory, the kind that used to show up on your doorstep, that lists names, addresses, and phone numbers. Whitepages (one word) is the company founded in 1997 that operates the largest online residential directory in the United States. Whitepages offers more than traditional white pages including reverse phone lookup, people search, property records, residential property occupancy, background reports, and data enrichment APIs for businesses.### Is white pages the same as the yellow pages?No. White pages list residential phone numbers and addresses for individuals.
