How to get a response from Google on trademark violation

2014-03-10 Thread ritu . pagetraffic


This is in regard to a trademark infringement by 
http://www.theinstaserv.com/ of a protected term and Design by the name 
‘Pagetraffic’, using the term ‘Pagetraffic Alternative’ to pull traffic. 
Following are the Trademark Details:

TRADEMARK DETAILS

 

1. *Pagetraffic* United States Word Yes 3844111

2. *Pagetraffic* India Word  Design Yes 2592989

 

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-VCQFsD7iAag/Ux2qHpZ4zpI/AAM/FtUFhrnDroI/s1600/image+showing+trademark+violation.jpg

The violator in question has been blatantly abusing the protected term in 
*Google 
AdWords Text Ads* for the last two months. I reported the issue to Google 
AdWords but no help forthcoming as yet. Despite several email exchanges 
with Google, we have not received any response/message in this regard. This 
is causing revenue loss from Advertising in Google. The petty excuse Google 
cites in its revert is that ‘*pagetraffic’* is a general English word which 
anyone is entitled to use in ad copies. This is baffling really as there is 
no such term as ‘pagetraffic’ in any English dictionary, however. The use 
is clearly intentional. This is a live example of Google trying to use its 
clout when it comes to search marketing. Surely, there have to be a way, 
else the days of online anarchy are nigh. Many have suffered from this 
plight and I am not the last one for sure. Please help me in fighting for 
at least what is my right  

The Ad copy of one of the Ads in PPC Ad reads ‘*Pagetraffic Alternative*’  (see 
screenshot at the left) which is clearly misleading and amounts to coercion 
applied to extract monetary mileage at the expense of our market share. I 
really want to put an end to this imbroglio at the earliest. Any suggestion 
to settle the issue would be greatly appreciated. 


Thanks in advance
