.mobi Searching for trademark info. on domain names

[Keith]

I am trying to search for TM info on uspto.gov. When I type in the domain name, the results are returned like a google search(containing the words). This is not the direct trademark that I am looking for. What am I doing wrong?

I'll use the word "snow" as an example in the trademark section of uspto.gov:

Settings: New User Form Search (Basic) / Singular / Live / /Search Term: snow / Field: Combined Word Mark / Results must contain: All Search Terms

Result: 1007 records which includes stuff like snowsport, snowtown, etc.

My guess is you are looking for just "snow" right? Try this:

Settings: Structured Form Search (Boolean) / Plurals: no / Search Term: snow / Field: full mark

Result: 24 records, just for "snow", no longer stuff like snowsport, snowtown, etc.

You can further narrow the field by eliminating dead records by doing the following:

Settings: Structured Form Search (Boolean) / Plurals: no / Search Term: snow / Field: full mark / AND / Search Term: live / Field: Live/Dead Indicator

Result: 10 records


Hope this helps

Thanks scandi, I want to make sure when registering in the future that I cover all the bases. This was a big help!
