googlewebdesign.co.uk

I thought google would sue these guys for passing off?

Ranks position 2 page 1 for "web design" in google.co.uk
 
Of course its not allowed... :D

Well, sooner or later this site will be gone...(if google decides that this page is violating their brand name, etc.)
 
No . . . It isn't allowed as far as I know. Google has gone after people for using their name in a domain name in the past. So I would imagine that they will soon shut that site down as well.

Hope that answers your question :)

All that hard work ranking for the keyword "web design".

What a waste :)
 
There lot of site using name Google..... i think its not get problem i seen lot of site like googlehost, googlebot, googleseorank etc.
 
I say flip the site now while it still ranks. Let someone else take the risk.
 
Yeah in this case G will do a C&D as soon as they find out about it. Some companies aren't as hard line so you can do trade name related TLD's as long as you're promoting them, but I know G doesn't even like if you screw with their Adwords Certification images and such.
 
Google adsense banner on site doesnt load properly for me so maybe there already after them

Can everyone else see the banner or is it just me?
 
Of course its allowed, that is until google shove there tiny corporate thingy up the webmasters thingy :eek:
 
Interesting, they registered in June through GoDaddy so they are new. Anyone taking bets as to when it gets taken down? You can hear the C&D letter working its way through the Google corporate lawyer's office right now!
 
yes, you can sell your site before you lose the domain. i think many webmasters want buy your domain. :)
 
not meant to hijack thread.
but can i use small industries names like fiverr.com
so can i register fiverrsucks.com or something like that.
is there will be any issues ?
 
good job trying to get the site deleted...sigh...if not you are trying now by making this post. imagine that is your website... and some idiot decided to make a post wondering if YOUR website was breaking the "rules"...and you happened to be making you a bunch of money.... does that sound cool? karma will get you sometimes I wonder if bhw is helping or hurting us all these days
