Patent US 6,629,092

A search engine system, server and method receives input from a user terminal regarding a mark and a description of its associated products or services. The search engine searches a database table which will have one entity associated with the input data. The entity's web site, a constructed web site, and/or a list of authorized vendors for the products or services or an error message is then displayed to the user via the user terminal. Each database record comprises a unique combination of a mark and its associated goods or services. A registrant can enter and update records provided that the records still result in a unique mark/goods combination.
