I believe that InfoSeek was actually the first commercially-produced Internet search engine..? I had a ``premiere'' account with them that cost about $10/mo. to buy access into their more detailed search database.
As far as I know, the only reason they stopped offering the premiere service was because of the newly-created free services such as AltaVista.
This was somewhere around 1994. I don't remember seeing AltaVista until 1995 or so.
