Trademarks are a bit misunderstood. Trademarks are adjectives and not nouns, so when you refer to a company by its name, you do not need to use the trademark symbol. For example, Answers Corporation is the name of the company that runs this site. If you refer to Answers Corporation in an article, you should not use the trademark symbol. However if you say something like, "The Answers.com(SM) website is . . . ", then you should use the trademark symbol.

It is often customary to use a trademark symbol in the title of an article (if applicable) and then the first time that the trademark appears in the article. It is generally accepted that you do not need to use the symbol each time the trademark appears.

Is it necessary to use the trademark symbol throughout a website?

Use of the trademark symbol is optional, but it doesn't hurt. For logos it's often part of the image file, so it would actually be more work not to use it. This page is full of reasonable examples. In the banner we have the Answers logo with TM, and at the very bottom we have a copyright notification, but for running text including the word "Answers" (such as the Answers Properties list header and content), there are no markings. Other websites are almost cartoonishly consistent with their use of the symbol--every logo, every slogan, every time the name of the company or its products appear, there's a helpful (r) reminder in case you'd forgotten in the intervening half-inch that they've registered it all. These are cases where using the indicia is distracting. What you want is a balance.

How to Get a Trademark registered?

To get a trademark registered, start by conducting a thorough search to ensure it's unique. Determine the appropriate trademark class and file an application online. The trademark office will examine it, and if it passes, it gets published for potential opposition. If there are no objections or they are unsuccessful, your trademark is registered, granting you exclusive rights. Don't forget to renew it every ten years and actively protect your brand against unauthorized use. Professional guidance is advisable for a smoother process and better brand protection.
