The first step is to contact them and ask them to stop. If this does not work to your satisfaction, work with an attorney to send a more formal Cease and Desist notice; at this point you may wish to demand payment of real damages. You do have the right to go to court, but it's always easier and often cheaper to handle it directly.

Can you say something is copyrighted on a website even though it is not like a business name?

I'm not a lawyer but generally:Depending on the country you are in, everything original that you create should be considered your own automatic copyright. It helps to add the (c) logo and year to your web site to act as a warning to others not to copy your work.If you're talking about business names, they are covered by trademarks and are a different matter entirely.In the United Kingdom, it is also useful to print the copyrighted material out and post it to yourself in an envelope. If the ownership of the work is disputed at some point you'd at least have an official date stamp from the post office to prove when you created the work.So, in a nutshell, yes. Go ahead and say your web site is copyrighted.
