Trademark search and registration
A trademark search shows whether marks similar to your business name are already registered or pending with the USPTO. CertPing scans USPTO for marks similar to yours, alerts you to new filings, and lets you start a trademark application that an independent trademark attorney files. Scan results are not legal advice.

Why your name needs a trademark
A domain gives you an address. A registered trademark gives you rights to the name itself, which matters when someone else starts trading on it.
Conflicting marks are often filed quietly. Without a watch, you find out when a dispute has already started.
