SEARCH TIPS
Don't search for words like 'the', 'company', or 'and', these words are not key words.
Try to use names that you believe are unique and avoid descriptive terms.
Enter the key word of your proposed business name, e.g. 'energy' for the name 'Energy Saver Windows'.
If there are too many names listed in the results, then add more of the name, e.g. searched 'energy', try 'energy saver'.
TRADE MARKS
Look up the classification for your nature of business from the list, if you don't know what classification you should select then choose the nature of your business from the alpha list. This will give you the correct classes to search.
