| <blockquote> <p> <span class="uicontrol">Simple</span> Allows |

| entity. A simple publish only allows you to specify only one name and |
| one business description.</p> |
| <p> <span class="uicontrol">Advanced </span> Allows you |
| to enter more information about your business entity. An advanced publish |
