Trademark registration is not mandatory for businesses in general. However, due to constant trademark infringement in online e-commerce platforms such as amazon, they require a trademark number for you to list your brand on their website.

It is not advisable to make drastic changes that may affect the identity of the trademark. Only a few changes can be made such as removing a word from the description or the change of address, etc which complies with trademark rules.

The wordmark only protects the brand name. It does not protect the color or font style or artistic works. The wordmark is the strongest protection and is the hardest to get trademarked. We suggest you apply a coined word for a wordmark to get accepted easily. 

A logo mark or Device mark protects the color, font style, shape, and other artistic works in the logo along with the words. The protection applies on the whole as in the word and the logo used combined.

Business owners usually don't need to register their trademark if their business is operating in a small geographical area. But with the rise of e-commerce, anyone selling their product over the internet to other states or regions, trademark protection becomes important.
