Before the Internet, businesses had to grow organically. Open a store and, if successful, a second and so on. So businesses expanded by state, then region, and perhaps throughout the entire country. This growth model made sure they did not expand into a region where another store was already using a similar name. Today, however, with just a simple upload to the Internet your website takes your business global. As such, if you intend on having a website it is no longer acceptable to simply check name availability with your state. Perhaps no one in your state has the same name. But what about in another state or country? If you adopt a name someone else is using they can make you change it and even seek damages for trademark infringement. To this end, we are the only company in our industry that not only identifies this risk for you but offers solutions to make sure this does not happen to you.
