Global Business Information Directory, Inc.
Releases Version 3 Of Site and New Web Address

SEATTLE September 8, 1999 - Global Business Information Directory, Inc. ("Global") (OTCBB: GBDI) a global business directory providing business with an opportunity to market themselves worldwide on the Internet, today announced that it has released the third and most advanced version of its search directory, located at www.bizfiles.com.

The introduction of Version 3.0 of Global's directory at www.bizfiles.com now provides full-text indexing of all or selected portions of business information in the directory. An enhanced interface allows for "any keywords" "all keywords" or exact phrase matching when searching the company name, company keywords or all company information. The search services have also been expanded to allow wider geographic searching for keywords within Business Categories while still providing lightening-fast search response times. This means that category searches can now be as broad as a global search or as narrow as a specific city within a State or Province. Category searching has also been expanded to allow full searching of the top-level business category. Also unique to bizfiles.com is its easy-to-use search and refinement interface that makes searching for a company simple.

Release 3.0 also allows companies to add or modify their core business information for free. Most other directory services do not provide this kind of service and rely on the business owner to go to the directory's list providers to make changes.

In addition, Global will begin to generate sales by offering the first of its Global ID(entity) FILES: the Products and Services ID FILE. Companies can now create, through a simple form interface, a Product and Services File, tailored to their industry sector. In just one click, potential customers will now be able to find the key business information they want from Global ID FILE subscribers. Unlike other directory advertising services, this new offering from Global allows the customer unlimited rights to modify their ID FILES, to add specials and change core information. All ID FILES are fully indexed into the bizfiles.com search engine and ID FILE subscribers are given priority ranking on search results, where the search terms match keywords within the company's basic or ID FILE information. Unlike other paid-for ranking services, bizfiles.com will ONLY return companies that match the search criteria given. Subsequent offerings of Global ID FILES will include the Corporate ID FILE.

Along with the ID FILES, Global will also offer the service of full-text indexing of existing web-sites to businesses worldwide.

"We are pleased to announce the release of this version to the Internet Business Community. The tools this version offers both the online company and the Internet user a very simple but effective way of both finding companies and for the companies themselves, the opportunity to be found," said Stephen Carmichael President and CEO of Global. "With the release we will see some dramatic results in how companies can market themselves internationally. Our desire is to ensure maximum exposure for all companies to new markets around the world."

Global Business Information Directory, Inc is positioned as the first truly global geographic business-to-business directory on the Internet. Global differentiates itself from word based search engines by offering an industry and geographic based business directory through its Website www.gbid.com. Its current database of more than 17 million companies has positioned Global as one of the largest free business directories on the Internet. Global offers a full line of services including Website hosting, Website construction and e-commerce solutions.
