what's up everybody this is attorney Dan win again and I want to talk a little bit more about trademarks and whether you can trademark the blog name and the answer is yes you can you can protect the trademark gent protect the name of the blog like any other business or product services name it has to match there must be distinctive so suggestive arbitrary fanciful if it's descriptive it might go to the Supplemental register so you want to be suggestive arbitrary so Jeff arbitrary or fanciful for your name but where a lot of people get tripped up is where the specimen or the proof that you are using the name in connection with with the service and so here are some tips that you can use when you're submitting your specimen to the trademark office so you don't get an office action back rejecting your application one obviously it must use the name of the of what you are trying to protect show the URL so this might be a full screen shot of the address bar and then you probably are using the name and some sort of stylized fashion in the blog itself so capture that in the same photo then have a way to contact you so this might be your contact page to reach to you if people are trying to try to connect with you and so these are kind of the main things oftentimes specimens are rejected because they don't they're not displaying the mark as as it should be and so it's not it's not meeting the requirements for the United States Patent and Trademark Office so if you have a blog make sure it shows the URL specimen shows a URL shows obviously shows the the name if you have if you're using if you're protecting the logo mark obviously has to match exactly the specimen has measurement specimen has to match exactly as the application and then maybe a way to and they're like way to contact you so probably your contact page and if you could if you want submit multiple pages of your of your blog as a specimen - for comprehensiveness all right so this is Dan talking about blog something like trademarks if you can trademark your blog answer's yes and kind of the specimen roblox feel kind of get it run into you if you're not doing it correctly alright this is Dan talking about Jerry micelle second-seeded bye
