Can I write the product brand names that I use or recommend in my blog? or not?
-
I want to write what I use in a blog but I have been describing the product. Not sure if I can write out the name brand or not.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I plan on doing a potty training blog series. I want to write out the name brands I love. But not sure if I can or not. Thank you for any fed back!

Yes you can use brand names in product reviews you publish. See here for the types of blogs that are allowed and not allowed http://en.wordpress.com/types-of-blogs/

Thank you timethief. I would call my blog border line personal and a how to blog. So just to be safe is it a go on writing out the brand names. Baking recipes and DYI crafts and more. I have been writing a deactivation without trying to say what it is. I did not want to over step an lines even if I’m saying this nameless product is wonderful. Just want to be sure.

What doses that mean?
Are you referring to disclosure policy? -

Auto spell checking changed the words on me. Description of the product. Like use your favorite “you know who” pancake baking mix. Sorry.
-
Oh I see. Not to worry about that. I’m visually challenged so I know exactly what you mean now.

Good! :) so i should just keep doing it this way and not write out the name brand?! Just want to be sure. Yes or no to brand name.

Go ahead and write out the name brand. What’s teh point of talking about a thing if you don’t allow yourself to talk about the thing? Some product companies want you to use their trademark symbol with the name.

Thank you raincoaster! I am new to blogging. So how would I insert the company symbol with the name. Would I add it by putting in their web link?
-
No. I just google “copyright symbol” and copy paste it, but there are many ways to do it.

Thank you I now can write and know I have a little more freedom. This subject is solved and closed. Thanks to timethief and raincoaster for helping me.
