Cleveland, Ohio (PRWEB) April 28, 2008—Founded in 1987, FraserNet (www.frasernet.com) is the oldest and leading online business network for Black professionals worldwide reaching over one million professionals and business owners each year. It has helped its members garner thousands of jobs and over $500 million in new business. FraserNet has evolved, grown and will launch FraserNetsearch, a cutting-edge client side search engine and business network that delivers ultra-fast, relevant results to users. Using technology developed specifically for FraserNet and its members by tyBit Inc. to promote their products and services and achieve their professional objectives, this ‘state of the art’ technology will allow the creation of an interactive networking culture by supporting one another and building wealth. FraserNet will release to the public FraserNetsearch at its annual conference in Atlanta, Georgia, June 18-21, 2008. The PowerNetworking Conference is the largest networking training conference in Black America.
“FraserNetsearch provides our community unparalleled access to the people and resources they need to succeed,” said George Fraser, Chairman and CEO of FraserNet. What distinguishes FraserNetsearch from other so-called black search engines is the fact that advertisers are predominately African American-owned businesses and the internet advertising network is relevant to their local, national and international businesses. This means regardless of the location of the user, the business owner can promote their product and service information on the Internet. This creates a global market for African American owned businesses and the consumers they are trying to reach. Whether they are located in downtown Cleveland or on the continent of Africa, Black businesses and professionals can be found easily on FraserNetsearch. FraserNetsearch is customizable, unifying search results from multiple data sources, where users search the web anonymously and securely with real time protection from malware and spyware.
“We are excited about the opportunity to work with the global community and our members; at the same time we are open to any businesses that want to advertise on FraserNetsearch. We will be able to develop interactive ad campaigns using images, video, music, and text content. Moreover, the FraserNetsearch platform provides a tool to comparison shop online for the best deals,” said George Fraser.

Some how I dont think a website devoted to 2nd hand shops, 419 scams and hip-hop clothes is going to succeed.

Great! Finally we have a search engine to determine which companies to avoid. It works for me.

Society, including our anti-white government, would not allow a ” white ” equivalent to prevail on the web, would they ?

I’m using the search engine to look up the phone number of the Fresh Air Taxi company run by Amos, Andy and the Kingfish.

Imagine, if you will, the probable governmedia knee-jerk outrage should any White have the temerity to launch a “cutting-edge” web service for White professionals.
Double standard? What double standard? This is “civll rights.” The TeeVee told me so.

You hit the nail square on the head.
I just hope all those endless Nigerian scam artists will also be represented… along with their incredible get-rich-quick offers. Which have provided me with many a laugh in my e-mails over the last five or six years.

Sounds like a great plan,they’ll soon find out what a “pleasure” it is doing business with each other

This is one server that will not crash due to demand, well, not by overuse by black africans anyway. Several AMRENers commented that it would be handy to know which businesses to avoid.. a very valid point indeed. What DOES the law say about a ‘White Business Only’ website?? Not too long ago, black africans in USA rioted and demanded de-segregation and equal rights. This is just an extension of that idea. I wonder if this website will list black-only buses, schools, restaurants and toilets etc. It will certainly promote black-only employment. It would be a hoot for queues of Whites to apply for jobs with these listed businesses and then sue if refused, using the same formula that blacks have used, and still are using, to prevent Whites from gaining employment and citing ‘affirmative action’ laws.
