GetMy.com: A Powerful New Tool That Makes Finding What You Want On the Internet
Simple and Easy
Business Editors & High-Tech Writers
COLUMBUS, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 28, 2000--For consumers, the
Internet can be a place filled with Web sites that have closely
related, confusing names that do not clearly identify the type of
business, and search engines that return an overwhelmingly large
number of Web addresses for each search request.
Many consumers are becoming increasingly frustrated using the
currently available conventional search engines.
Aiming to put an end to the complex maze of information consumers
are presented with when they perform a search is a new portal,
GetMy.com. GetMy provides an innovative format for consumers to find
what they want quickly and easily. Company founder and president,
William Taylor, Sr., officially introduced its interactive beta site
in early June 2000.
"GetMy delivers the Internet the way it should be, and the way
consumers want it: simple and concise," stated Taylor. "We have
designed GetMy to represent the best of what the Web has to offer,
allowing consumers to find what they want and get it quickly." GetMy's
fully functioning portal launch date is slated for July 4, 2000, when,
according to Taylor, "the site will provide independence from the old
way of searching the Internet."
GetMy delivers exactly what its name suggests. The consumer needs
only to type in their search request, such as "getmynewcar" or
"getmyhardware," and an array of GetMy affiliate sites will appear on
the screen, even showing (when applicable) providers located within
the consumer's geographic area.
Using Reverse Relevance(TM) technology, GetMy allows the consumer
to search a living family of sites comprised of major retail and
wholesale providers of products, services, information, and
technology. The consumer simply types in their request and GetMy
returns those items that are most relevant to the search, and then
allows them to widen their search if desired.
This is the reverse of current search engine philosophy, which
returns an unending series of Web pages to find relevant items. All
pornographic and hate material is eliminated from its search
parameters.
By using the "GetMy" tag to encompass a myriad of different items,
GetMy's powerful new search technology eliminates the consumer's need
to remember brand name spellings, 800 numbers, or Internet addresses.
"GetMy is going to make a huge difference in how the consumer uses the
Internet," Taylor said.
"With millions of online addresses out there, GetMy allows
consumers to find every product and service they're looking for
without a broad search of the Internet every time. Once people
experience GetMy's easy, interactive search technology and its high
level of customer service, they will use and trust us for all their
Internet 'search-and-purchase' needs."
The current list of GetMy provider affiliates reads like a Who's
Who of e-commerce: ADP Payroll Systems, Reuters, Stoneage.com,
Drugstore.com, OfficeMax, Networds, and nearly a thousand other online
firms, large and small. Taylor projects this list will increase
dramatically over the next six months, as GetMy's media campaign moves
into high gear. Media spots are planned for the Internet, television,
radio, and print periodicals.
GetMy has created and will continue to search out the best the Web
has to offer. The company's tag line sums up its purpose and appeal:
"Isn't it about time you got yours?" A growing number of GetMy
customers and affiliates are answering with a hearty "yes!"
GetMy Inc. is based in Circleville, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus.
