eHarbor Inc was originally launched as Internet Promotion Services, Inc. in Provo, Utah in 1996 by Daniel Ashworth. The company primarily worked with small-business owners, sending search-engine submissions to InfoSeek and Inktomi, and it was one of the first companies to work with Dogpile, GoTo (now Yahoo Search Marketing) and Alta Vista.

Oliver Bigler joined Ashworth in 2002 after working as a Strategy Business Consultant for the Monitor Group in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Ashworth and Bigler launched a new version of Internet Promotions targeting a growing segment of the online market: small to mid-size business and ecommerce. Submit Solution was the first entity created from this partnership, followed shortly thereafter by Real Estate Promoter, which focused on search-engine marketing and lead generation in the online real estate market. In 2003, the business partners created a new corporate entity to house the increasing number of divisions. That new entity was named eHarbor Inc.

Currently valued at more than $6 million, eHarbor specializes in search-engine marketing technology and search-engine lead-capturing services for multiple industries. It works to bring high placement on Internet searches and qualified traffic to its clients via partnerships with the top 20 search portals, including Yahoo, Google, and MSN, and generating thousands of targeted leads for its clients.
