Government Files Online Speeds Up Online Public Records Search
New Online Public Records Search Interface Gives Businesses Instant Access to Public Records in all 50 States
ST PETERSBURG, FL, January 30, 2006 – Government Files Online, Inc., a leading provider of online public records access for major finance, credit, wholesale and manufacturing businesses in the United States, officially released a new Web site for its online public records search database on January 30th. The new public records directory and search interface (www.governmentfilesonline.com) offers improved and faster access to nearly 500 government Web sites, including Secretary of States Web sites in all 50 states.
Government Files Online simplifies the way users find and file online public records, allowing them to complete public records searches and filings for corporation, partnership, LLC, UCC and other public records with minimum effort. It is based on a list of secretary of state Web sites that founder James W. Martin, a St. Petersburg lawyer, assembled in 1998 and posted to his own Web site (www.jamesmartinpa.com). Two years later the list had attracted so many users that Martin incorporated Government Files Online, Inc. and gave the list its own Web site under the name SecSt.com (www.secst.com). It operated without charge to users for its first three years, but converted to a pay site after 9/11 in order to restrict access to registered users.
The new Web site, designed and developed by Mediamix Design and Publishing, Inc - a web development company based in St Petersburg, FL – features clean, attractive design and advanced web technology that helps users accomplish search and filing tasks with increased speed. Businesses that depend on public records information on a daily basis can benefit from finding all public records search and filing resources in a single, intuitive interface, one that dramatically cuts online research time.
The site is well planned, with each state’s page featuring a prominent link to the Secretary of State Web site, plus links organized under two main categories: “Corporation and Entities” and “Uniform Commercial Code (UCC)”. The user can easily switch between all 50 state public records sites without any additional online research time.
“Searching for public records through generic search engines has become a frustrating experience for users and a productivity pitfall for employers. Our service helps employees stay focused on their jobs and can effectively improve productivity while reducing expenses for employers”, says James Martin, president of Government Files Online, Inc.
Access to the directory and search Web site is available to members only, through an affordable annual subscription fee. Annual subscription fees range from $749 to $1149 per company, depending on its number of users and locations. For most business this is an affordable fee for an invaluable business tool, and well worth the price.
For additional information please call James W. Martin at 727-821-0904 or visit the Web site at www.governmentfilesonline.com .
