The online community has been in an uproar since the news that someone is in the process of obtaining a trademark for the term “SEO.”

Watch the video below.

Can you imagine what this will do to all of us in the online community? Why would anyone wants to buy the trademark for the term SEO? I thought this is an open community and everybody online have the right to everything. This guy must be another jerk who just wants to monopolize the search engine optimization market.

feel free to comment what you think about all this.

Same theory about selling, it’s always easy to sell to the customers that have already bought something from you before, it also applies to the way we are getting traffic.

Here are a few great ways to get repeat traffic to your blog or website.

1. Update the pages and content on your website frequently. Stagnant sites are dropped by some search engines. One way is to put a date counter on the page to show when it was last updated.

2. Allow customers to ‘opt in’ to get discounts and special offers. You can place a link on your site to invite customers to ‘opt in’ to get a monthly newsletter and updates or valuable coupons.

3. Add a ‘Book Mark or Add this site to your Favorites’ link to your primary page with a script

4. Add a link ‘Recommend this site to a Friend’ so that the visitor can email your website link, with a pre-written title, “Thought you might be interested in this”, just by clicking on it.

5. Make sure that each page on your website has appropriate titles and keywords so that your customer can find their way back to your site if they happen to lose the book mark.

Feel free to add more ways in the comment. It will be greatly appreciated.

Is it just me or Goggle is now on steroid? As a professional full time online marketer, we have to keep up and know what is going around Google. Well, if not much, at least we still need to know what is Google up to. As much as I try not to bother with the mumbo jumbo page ranking stuffs because Goggle has drove a lot of marketers crazy and I don’t want to end up  crazy like the rest.

I’ve had most of my targeted keyword on top ranking and like any professional marketers, I do keep track and monitor those keywords on daily basis. For years now, they’ve move up and down but most don’t leave the first or the second page. 

But lately, I see a lot of new links jumping up the list. Links you have never seen or heard of jumping and taking the top position. It’s moving up and down like index on stock exchange, much to my comfort. Even six or nine months ago, it seems to be more stable than now.
