Common Questions about Quick Search:
Q: What does Quick Search scan?
A: Quick Search checks for matching content on supported online marketplaces (such as Made-in-China, Shopee, Alibaba and others) and across the open web. This includes standalone web pages and webshops that mention your brand or products - including sites that may be selling counterfeit or pirated goods.
Q: How accurate are the results?
A: Quick Search provides real-time results based on your search string. It gives a fast snapshot of where your terms appear, but some results may require further review to confirm whether they represent infringement. For broader, continuous monitoring, consider RightHub’s ongoing monitoring services.
Q: Is Quick Search free?
A: Yes. Quick Search is available to all RightHub users at no additional cost. It’s designed to give quick insight into potential brand issues without an ongoing commitment.
Q: Can I save my search results?
A: Quick Search shows results instantly but does not currently support saving searches or tracking them over time. For that functionality, use RightHub’s Marketplace module or Website module.
Q: How does Quick Search differ from the Marketplace/Website module?
A: Quick Search is best for one-off checks over marketplaces and the open web using a single input. The Marketplace/Website modules are deeper and built for continuous monitoring and high needs for enforcement actions.
Q: What kinds of terms can I search?
A: You can search product names, brand names, keywords, or any combination that represents what you want to check. Quick Search works across a range of products and industries.
Q: What do I do if I find a suspicious result?
A: After reviewing results, you can visit the linked site or listing to confirm the issue, contact the seller or site owner directly, or use RightHub’s enforcement tools to file complaints or takedown requests.
Q: Does Quick Search provide ongoing monitoring?
A: No. Quick Search is intended for single, immediate searches. For ongoing alerts and automated enforcement, set up one of RightHub’s continuous monitoring services.
Q: Will Quick Search show social media results?
A: Quick Search focuses on supported marketplaces and the general web (standalone sites). It does not yet include scanning social media platforms.
Q: Why do some web results look unrelated?
A: Results may include pages that mention your terms but are not infringing. Quick Search returns content that matches your keywords - it’s up to you to review results and decide what is relevant.
Q: Can I focus Quick Search only on marketplaces or only on the web?
A: Yes. If you use the search scope filters, you can choose to search only marketplaces or only the open web.
What to Do Next
