Registering A Domain

Hi there;
I have a prepaid visa card (it is no name) and I want to register a domain name through it?
Most of domain register sites need to receive card holder info.
Do you know a website to accept prepaid cards like mine for registering a domain name?

Question:

I’m trying to start a website. I’m new, but I think I understand the first three steps. Register a Domain, find a host, and Install WordPress. Doing some research I read a few places that registering a Domain does not mean you actually own it. Is this true? If so, what exactly does that mean? Would I ever be able to sell the site? Someone please explain. Thank you.

Question:

I need to start a blog.
It will be on a domain.

I want to put ads on it, and it seems wordpress does not allow ads? According to their site, however I see wordpress operated blogs with ads all the time. Can someone clarify?

Also, I’m not entirely sure how wordpress works? Just write –> Point –> Click –> Upload to blog? I don’t get it

I will be registering my domain and hosting it on dreamhost, I chose that site for not only it’s features but it is a GREEN-friendly site which appeals to me greatly.

Can someone give me some step by step instructions for getting this ball rolling? Am I missing any info? Thanks!

*Again, I do in fact want to put ads on it. My own sponsored ads, as well as generic ones like adsense, and all the rest.

Question:

An organization that my dad runs is about to move to a new domain name.

In the past, they had a problem with someone registering a similarly named domain and putting up a spoof of their website.

He wants to register a bunch of domain names that can be used to spoof the new name. Is this the best way of preventing this kind of stuff? And if so, what’s the best way for him to go about it?
Oh and by spoof I really mean "parody" The guy wasn’t attempting to pass himself off as the real website or anything, just make fun of it.

Is using a business name or domain similar to a trademarked name infringement?

Question:

I started a company that offers an online service for profit. After branding the business registering a domain and building a website, I found a web presence offering similar services offline with a trademarked name similar to mine. For example, my website has a name like "Widgets Gadgets Web" and a domain name like "widgetsgadgetsweb.com". The trademarked name would be like "WidgetsGadgets" (one word), but the two word version is a very common term that is not trademarked. I registered the domain based on knowledge of the common term, with no knowledge of the pre-existing trademark. I have already invested quite a bit in branding & pr materials before discovering this potential show stopper. Am I in violation of US trademark law?
