In 1998, GBID.com was founded to provide a vehicle for businesses to market themselves and establish business contacts around the world by utilizing GBID's services via the Internet and the World Wide Web.
Search engines on the Internet are currently word search based. Any information in word form, put into the search engine would access vast amounts of information stored on the Internet that would contain the search word or combination of words. This method of search becomes frustrating and time consuming, and most importantly for the businessperson, unproductive.
GBID has solved this problem with the introduction of the GBID QUEST; a geographical based search engine dedicated to helping businesses market themselves.
Company Web sites can be found, by selecting search Industry categories, searching by Continent, by Country, by State / Province or Region, and finally by City or and combination of the four. By marketing this Web hosting service to the business community, GBID offer's a service that is specific, productive and informative.

Services
Web site hosting with the Internet Business search engine (GBID QUEST)
Web site manufacturing (GBID Designers)
Portal Site Strategy
On-line Advertising
Web site hosting, GBID.com's principal revenue source, will consist of storing and making available, graphic and written information upon demand by Internet users.
This service will allow companies to market their Web sites along side their corporate listing so it will be easily located within the GBID QUEST.
For those companies wishing to create a Web site for themselves, GBID.com will offer to manufacture a Web site for them. GBID will make available four Web site formats (Single page, Standard, Deluxe and Custom), and place their Web sites along side their corporate listing within the GBID QUEST.
As well, GBID.com will offer advertising space on the GBID QUEST that companies may purchase in a banner format that will link to their Web site. This service offers increased exposure within the GBID QUEST.
Competition: Competition exists under each specific service that GBID wishes to pursue within the North American region and throughout the world. However, with the combination of services GBID wishes to offer, and by the forum to the community it wishes to market no distinct competitor offering an identical product can be determined at this point in time.
Because Web hosting is the primary revenue source, GBID considers this service to be the focus concerning any competition. When it comes to Web hosting, there are several companies in existence and many emerging companies on the Net. The distinct majority of them are located in North America, and most of their services are regional and/or nationally in scope. Very little attention is being paid to offer this service globally by a single entity.
Marketing Plan: GBID will be seeking qualified Associate Partners (AP), joint venture partners, licensees and strategic allies and utilize their strengths to further the development of the technologies that GBID has created. These partners will take an active part in the development and marketing of the various applications of the technologies. This marketing strategy will enable GBID to focus on distributing the use of its intellectual properties wider, faster and better.
This is an age of convergence and rapid emergence of interactive consumer products, services, and relationships. Therefore, it is imperative to continually develop industry partnerships worldwide and implement strategies that ensure the highest market penetration for GBID's products and services.
