While this might not be a big consideration right now, this is almost a guaranteed loss in a UDRP/WIPO case against your domain, since you're in a very similar space. It might be a good idea to weigh your options prior to launch, as rebranding will inevitably become more difficult as you acquire users.

- evlapix 12y agoYikes! Thanks for pointing that out. I'd rather not get distracted by potential issues like that for now. If GigYard gets enough users to upset Fiverr over a potential registered service mark conflict, I'll consider that a good thing.
- sirdogealot 12y agoThat's a terrible idea imho. Just change the domain name and relaunch. Problem solved before it began, and for just $10.
- evlapix 12y agoExcept then I wouldn't like the name as much.
