Skimming over the title and the URL, I was hoping to find a Bonsai care/maintenance contractor network.

How do you reach your target audience with a company name and URL like yours? Could you provide a sample contract without the need to enter a valid E-Mail address?

I always suffer the same confusion when I try to shop at amazon.com

In fact, I have yet to find an actual Amazon[1] on amazon.com, although I have found books about them [2].

This also seems like a concern. There is already Bonsai, a hosted ElasticSearch provider, as well as other tech companies using the name.

Funny, from the description on the title I thought this was going to be another cryptocurrency project.
