Google’s Indexbench: Domains and a Now a Trademark Application

Google Applies for New Trademark, Related to New Domain: Indexbench
A few weeks ago we noticed that Google applied for several new domains including:

+ bench-index.com (and .org, .info)

+ benchindex.com (and .org, .info)

+ Index-bench.com (and .org, .info)

+ indexbench.com (and .org, .info, .net)

for the term Indexbench.
