Trademarkia Provides Advanced Trademark Search For FREE

This may seem a little off topic but I'm sharing this because I know many readers are small business owners and or some of you may be planning to launch a business in 2010 and I've found this an extremely useful resource in the business building BS we've been dealing with in our Gay Travel Online Publishing.

 It's easy to search patents on the Internet, but trademarks are still lost in government websites that are not particularly search-friendly.Trademarkia makes trademark search a breeze.

Trademarkia let’s you search all U.S. trademarks filed since 1870, including dead trademarks. The company has scans of all the marks and returns results in a very appealing visual grid. You can search by company, theme, product category, or even filing attorney. Companies can also file a trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office through the site.

 

Trademarkia is an excellent resource for anyone researching trademarks, companies getting ready to file a trademark, or even product and brand logo designers. It operates much like a domain registrar like GoDaddy. Instead of searching for available domain URLs, you search for trademarks, and if they are available, you can register them for a fee.

On Trademarkia, for example, you can search all trademarks with a certain image you may want to use to make sure you are not duplicating someone else’s trademark. You can search for dead trademarks as well, and if you like one, you can register it for $159.

You can also can look at all trademarks registered to a company, or sort them to see just the trademarks the company has allowed to expire making them currently available!

    Trademarkia.com is a scam. Its founder is a trademark infringer who was involved in a “dispute” back in the 90s…

    From Trademarkia.com:
    “Raj became interested in trademarks when he started a little, unwisely-named website in 1994 called AOLclassifieds.com while an undergraduate engineering student. Raj sold the site to America Online, Inc. after a federal trademark dispute,”

    Trademarkia.com co-opts intellectual property – trademarks and copyrighted imagery belonging to others, and attempts to make money off of them by SELLING them. It’s misleading and unethical.

    You may want to check to see if they’re trying to sell YOUR trademark too.
