Summarize the following:
Creating and registering your company is relatively easy and straightforward so long as you have done all of the busy work leading up to this point. To register your company with the state, visit your state's corporations website, which is usually found within the Secretary of State's office. Once you have tracked down the correct website, you will need to find the correct form. For example, in Oregon and Texas, there are different forms for companies registering as a for-profit or nonprofit. In general, the articles of incorporation will require the following information:  The name of your entity; Your registered agent and registered office; The name of your directors (for-profit) or managers (nonprofit); Information about shares (if you are a for-profit company); The purpose of your company; and The name of the organizer (person crating the company). Most states allow you to file your articles of incorporation online. For example, in Texas, you can file your paperwork using SOSDirect, which is the Secretary of State's online filing service. In Oregon, you can use the Oregon Business Registry. If you do not file online, you will need to take your articles of incorporation to the Secretary of State's office or fax them to a designated number. There will be a fee associated with the filing of your required documents. If you cannot pay the fee, you may be eligible for a fee waiver in some states. In Texas, the fee for registering a for-profit company is $300 while the fee for registering a nonprofit is $ 25. In Oregon, the processing fee for a for-profit company is $100 and $50 for a nonprofit.

Summary:
Prepare your articles of incorporation. File your articles of incorporation. Pay the required fee.
