Should I also save the original AI file?

Yes. If you need to make changes to the logo, you

will find it very difficult to edit the optimized

You should make sure your canvas size matches

your logo size, or you will have an image that is

needlessly big. You can have Illustrator remove

excess canvas by clicking Object, Artboards, and

Fit to Artwork Bounds.
