[QUOTE="DomainEmpire.com, post: 2296247, member: 875"] Hi all, I'm in the domain business since 19 years now but I've never thought to register a trademark so far. I've recently discovered to own a nice typo (typo of a generic dictionary word) actually getting a growing flow or organic traffic so I'd like to trademark the whole domain (wordname.com) before starting to develop it, obviously withoit violating in any way the holder of the trademark on the generic word (let's suppose I own gealth.com which's getting indirect organic traffic from people looking for health.com just to explain in full the concept). 1. From where should I start to register an US trademark over 'Gealth.com' ? 2. How does the whole process work ? Should I wait for a registration approval considering I want to opt for the 'health' category ? 3. What will I be asked at the time of the registration submission ? Should I tell more about the use I wish to do of Gealth.com ? 4. Let's suppose the trademark will get approved and that I'll never use in violation of the main Health.com trademark/activity (I'll never join them as an affiliate and I'll get sure to develop a slightly diff. activity), will the Health.com owner be able to sue me for some reason in the future ? Any advise would be highly appreciated, thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
