I have heard that slogans cannot be registered in the same way a business name can. Is there a way to register a slogan for your business?
 
There is no problem registering a slogan as long as it is unique to your business and no used by any other company! !better if you have registered the slogan with the trademark registry
Example justdoit.com redirects to Nike ⚽
 
Yes, but I'm guessing that trademarks for slogans need for a certain amount of popularity and notoriety in order for you to be able to claim it as yours.
 
No issue in registering slogans, registry does not know you are registering a slogan they simply sees that domain name should not be more then 65 characters long.That is it.

But if you register a popular slogan or already TM (more appropriate is copyright) slogan it may create a issue, We remember a case of Domino's Pizza where one of our known domainer registered slogan "Hungrykya" and Domino's went to court ? but today we see that domain name is under another ownership and even .IN is registered.

Register your unique slogan and if no one had filed Copyright on that term then you become the first user from the date you register the domain name.
 
Thanks for your replies, but I perhaps I didn't explain myself properly. I meant to register a slogan as a business tagline not as a domain.
 
Didn't know one can register a slogan in order to be of your own trademark. I usually see that many brands use generic slogans with little variations using lots of overused keywords: life, fun, enjoy, different, style, special, love, etc. Therefore, I would not be surprised if copyright issues are rampantly common there.
