With the high activity of social media it is important to check your potential branding. Here are two easy tools that will check the social networks for any name you may be considering.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://usernamecheck.com/" target="_blank">User Name Check</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">and</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://namechk.com/" target="_blank">NameChk</a></p>
<p>When you are thinking of a new product or new business you should run them through these easy tools and see if they are already in use. If they aren&#8217;t in use then go sign up and retain the names for when you are ready to use them&#8230;or they be gone before you get the chance.</p>
