A Search Engine for Brand Names

Wondering about the "official" site for a brand or product? Sometimes when trying to find such a thing online less is more. Such is the case with VisioBrand, a search engine/directory for only "official" brand sites. It's available at http://www.visiobrand.com .

The enables you to search or browse for 15,000 "official" Web sites. Categories in the directory include Celebrities, Sports, Services, Pets, and Personal. I went and looked at Personal, which had subcategories including Smoking, Baby Products, and Sunglasses/Eyewear. Listings in the directory include company name, link to a page cache, and a link to the site (framed by VisioBrand -- ick.)

There were some odd omissions here. I drilled down to the lighters category and saw no mention of Zippo. So don't expect this to be a complete list.

I searched for another brand name, in this case Volvo. I got three name matches in the search results: Volvo Car Corporation, Volvo Group, and Volvo Trucks. The search results provide more information, including corporate and career information as well as a detailed list of pages found.
