Does anyone know if there are any copyright/legal issues if I were to use the phrase "for dummies" in a domain name? Like makingwidgetsfordummies.com?

  • Yes, I believe "For Dummies" is trademarked.

    • It most certainly is
  • Yes it's a trademark and if you use it in your domain name, especially the way you plan, you will be told to give up the domain
  • I would pass on using that domain.

    • If you pick up a "...for Dummies" book and look inside, it will tell you that it is trademarked.
