Web Based Information Search Method

Abstract

The present invention is a web-based and mobile device application service that enables customizable product or service information retrieval from the Internet through the input of a unique product or service identifier and a location parameter. The unique product or service identifier is an alpha numeric number, UPC code, SKU, MLS or other product or service identifying parameter and the location parameter, which may be a zip code, address, town, city, state, country, GPS coordinate, or other location identifier, to provide a user with listings of the exact locations of a product or service from or within the described location. The retrieved data may include information regarding the product or service, including but not limited to price, size, availability, product or service description, web site information or links, promotional codes or sale information or any other data made available by the seller. The system may further enable a user to input a common product or service name which is converted into a unique product or service identifier.
