That one website that checks if a business name is already trademarked
Why it's the pick
The US Patent and Trademark Office's own search covers every federal trademark that has been registered or applied for, which is the first thing to check before you print a name on anything. It is free and works without an account, though USPTO suggests logging in for fewer errors at busy times.
