Copyrighting a business name

I just registered a domain name and need to copyright a business name. I used to know where and how to go about doing this, but I forgot.

Does anyone know where I can do this online?

Why not do it the usual way, try phoning your local government for more details as laws vary from one state to another in the US??

You should be able to find your answer (and more) here: http://www.sba.gov/

I think I've never mentioned it but TechSpot is a registered trademark, how do you like that? ;).

Now I will have to assume that although all trademarks are treated the same worldwide, the process to go through it is different in each country, in my case I was helped by a lawyer friend of mine, just paid a fee and he arranged all the paperwork.

I'll have to make a friend out of a lawyer. Maybe I can find a good looking girl lawyer :D

lol, I was just thinking about Julio's post. The layman's process is the same world-wide: Pay for a lawyer to process the paperwork!

What about the old 3DSpotlight? Is that a registered trademark too?

Not really, just own the domains with that name.
