24-hour Accurate Business and Government Lookup	August 30,2006	StrikeIron
The StrikeIron 24-hour Accurate Business and Government Lookup Web Service provides programmatic interfaces to directory information for businesses and government agencies in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. This information is updated nightly making it the most accurate and up–to–date resource of its kind.

Businesses have had to rely on labor–intensive and inaccurate sources in an attempt to keep records up–to–date, using processes that are both costly and ineffective. Now, with the StrikeIron Business and Government Lookup Web Service, you can get instant directory information on–demand. You greatly increase the impact of telephone–based strategic data such as leads, customer information and identity verification.
