WIPO Domain Name Decision D2012-0621 for mazuma.com html (39 KB)

A majority of the Panel finds is hard to believe that, in the end of December 2008, a professional domain name registrant such as the Respondent could not have been aware of the Complainant’s trademark, all the more than the Complainant’s website appears particularly high in Google natural search results when one types the term “mazuma” in the search engine. Assuming that the Respondent is an internal unit of Internet Reit, the holding of several decisions against Internet Reit certainly does not appear to favor the Respondent (see, e.g., Entreparticuliers.com and Mr. ...

WIPO Domain Name Decision D2004-0270 for soignon.com html (41 KB)

By April 8, 2004, and most likely by the date of the Complaint, the Respondent had not created an active website at the URL “www.soignon.com” as it appears from Complainant’s attempt to locate same in a Google search as shown in Annex 7. Respondent has in the past registered several domain names on readily apparent generic terms such as “custodians,” “insulator,” “greenlawn,” “curtainrod,” as well as “agile,” “LFO,” “NEN,” and “naturalizer” which last four have been the subject matter of UDRP decisions as put in evidence by Complainant, two of three in which Respondent’s view prevailed, were referred to and relied upon by Respondent. ...

WIPO Domain Name Decision D2008-1986 for aubert.com html (87 KB)

The Respondent relies in this respect on the Complainant's own evidence that shows that the use of the term “Aubert” in a search engine results in a large number of links associated with the surnames of prominent persons (although it claims that links related to the Complainant feature more prominently if the search is conducted in France). This Respondent exhibits Google search results as evidence of this. 5.15 The Respondent also refers to a large number of cases involving the NetIdentity business which are said to show that that the Respondent's activities do not involve bad faith registration or use. ...

WIPO Domain Name Decision D2012-2126 for hanaapp.com, hanaapp.info, hanacloud.com, hanacloud.net, hanaclouds.com html (43 KB)

The fact that the Domain Names were registered the same day that discussions were taking place through Google, is compelling. In short, regardless of the truthfulness of the Respondent’s contention that it had been developing a product since 2009 under the “HANA” name, the timing strongly suggests that the Respondent’s motive for making these registrations was not as part of that project but was instead in response to the Complainant’s interest in relation to the Domain Name. ...

Other than listing several such domain names in the Response and showing that these appear in a “Google” search, the Respondent does not provide anything in the way of evidence of their use. In any event, the existence of third party domain names, whether or not they or their use infringe the Complainants’ rights, would not excuse the Respondent’s registration and use of the disputed domain name, and it is only the disputed domain name itself with which the present proceeding is concerned. ...

WIPO Domain Name Decision D2025-2782 for puplist.com pdf (287 KB)

The Panel conducted basic searches for “puplist” on the Internet, using Google and Baidu, and noticed that the term “PUP list” may also stand for the National Football League’s “Physically Unable to Perform list”, which is a roster designation for players who are injured due to a football-related activity at the start of training camp and cannot practise. 2 In sum, the Complainant’s evidence, without more, is insufficient to sustain an inference that the Respondent knew of the Complainant’s brand prior to the registration of the disputed domain name. ...
