Domain Name

Domain names are registered with the Internet Nic (Network Information Center) but NSI (Network Solutions Inc.) handles the billing process. You may have to do a search for an available business.com name. AIME DOES ALL SEARCHES FOR YOU.

Search Engines

Registering with Search Engines is how your site is found by potential customers. The key to getting your web site noticed is how you use your keywords not only in the content of your web site but the use of meta tags. All these considerations are part of the design process of the web site and are performed by AIME Consulting. We hand register your site with AOL and YAHOO. You can be registered with as many search engines as you wish. You can pay some one to register you with a 1000 search engines, but 99% of all searches are done through the 7 major search engines, which 2 are alphabetically indexed catalogs with sub categories, ie. aol and yahoo. It is important to note that once you have registered with the search engines it takes anywhere from two weeks to a month before the site is posted.

Trademarks

Trademark, any symbol, such as a word, number, picture, or design, used by manufacturers or merchants to identify their own goods and distinguish them from goods made or sold by others. Thus, a trademark identifies the source of a product and fixes responsibility for its quality. If customers like the goods, the trademark enables them to know what to purchase in the future; if they dislike the product, they will avoid goods with that trademark.

Trademark fees are about $500.00
