    Hi everyone, Caro here :-) Just to clarify, Robert used this example for two reasons:a) To be consistent with day 2b) We’ve picked examples that deliberately do not meet the 30DC criteria, as in the past real examples have been pummelled by not so well intentioned people with obscene linking etcNET: We DO NOT recommend you acquire a domain that includes any brand names, unless you own that brand name.Caro :-)

    Valprop you certainly have a point. I too would strongly advise against using any brands or trademark names in a website or anywhere for that matter unless you own them. You will have a cease and desist order from the attorney of the company that owns it in no time. Therefore the Leica example would probably spell trouble.

    I got a cease and desist letter when I built a website on a domain that had the word “Realtor” in it. The word Realtor is protected same as Leica. If you want to waste time and money then register a name that contains a company name. Do your research before you register!!!

    Q: What is the difference between a URL and a Domain name??? I could see that the kw Leica was in the end of the url but not in the domain – how does that happen?Great tips on choosing a Domain name. Thanks !

    Same question, please help¡

    Am I missing something here Bob? Surely Leica will ask you to take the site down for unauthorised use of the name or cyber squatting.I have a friend who had a cease and desist order for using a trade name and i am currently having to change a domain for the same reason.Confused!
