I am not sure that this is what you are interested in or not, but WebPromote at http://www.webpromote.com offers a service where they will locate and report on your competitors’ activities online. You don’t get to do it yourself.  The service is provided as part of some of their targeted packages.  You get a good report at the end of the month too! Hope this helps! Shawn

The SEC’s Edgar database, http://www.sec.gov/edgarhp.htm, lists reports that companies are required to file with the agency.  Also, Hoover’s Online, http://www.hoovers.com, has a lot of info.   — Steve Holmes, Steve Holmes Productions (helping companies communicate through award-winning video) Iowa City, IA, USA

Are there any web sites out there which allow me to research my competitors, their products and services, and articles written about them in major newspapers and magazines.  I am looking for something along the line of Lexis-Nexis but less expensive. Thanks for any leads, Marcus
