We’ll walk you through the basics—from understanding trademarks to protecting your brand with our tools and services.

1. Learn the Basics of Trademarks

Before you start protecting your brand, it helps to understand what trademarks are and why they matter.

  • What is a trademark?
    A trademark is a legally protected name, logo, or tagline that sets your business apart.

  • Why register a trademark?
    Registration gives you exclusive rights, protects your brand from copycats, and adds value to your business.

  • What can be trademarked?
    Names, logos, and slogans that uniquely identify your products or services.


2. Start with a Free Trademark Search

Before you file, make sure your name, logo, or slogan is available and safe to use.
