Register& Inc. your business online in florida?

[mike95910]

Hey everyone i wanted to see if anyone ever Registered & Inc. their business online and in Florida? I need something like this because i do not currently live in florida. However my parents do and i will be using their address. Anyways i have looked around using google to find something like this but everything i have seen so far is $150 or more (not including the filling fees which are around $70). Does Florida have an online registration for this? Any help concerning this would be great and thanks in advance.

Also what does it mean to be a registered agent? Because this is another option i have to choose from whether i want to be my own or if i want the company who is setting this up for me to be it...???

I use mynewcompany.com for all of my business that i have incorporated. They charge 79$+state fee. You can also buy other services as well, such as company seal, or a LLC minutes book. As far as registered agent goes, that is the official person to contact for your company, so if the government needs to contact you they will go through the registered agent. Also the registered agent will receive tons of spam mail, (credit card offers and the like) I just have myself as the registered agent. Yes you can file yourself, if you know how to do it. But I would rather pay 80$ and avoid the hassle.

PS: I am not the owner of mynewcompany.com, just a satisfied customer.
