In case entrepreneur is planning to use the brand worldwide and going to invest huge in brand development, one should go for comprehensive trademark search where similarity search is performed using all possible variation of the name like plurals, with extended characters, reverse words, phonetical identical and so forth. It’s advisable to use additional Database such as domain name databases, business publication, company name database, Trademark office database, press releases, etc. The analyst need to do more meaningful and thoughtful comparison after getting the results before proceeding further and taking any decision.
