SEO News

A recent ruling in Utah is shaking up the world of SEO marketing. The Trademark Protection Act, which took effect earlier this month, allows companies to register their trademarked name and seek damages from advertisers and search engines that use the trademarked name to trigger competitive advertisements. Under this new law, businesses that pay for advertisements that are triggered by a competitive keyword search and search engines that purposely allow this practice can be sued for damages.

For instance, users who search for “Borders Bookstore” on Google will see a banner ad for Barnes & Noble on the search results page. With the inception of this new law, Borders would be able to seek damages from both Barnes & Noble and Google if the search originated in Utah. While you may not do business in Utah, this ruling may still greatly affect you and your business, as competitive keyword search advertising is currently under federal review to asses its legality.

To learn more about the Trademark Protection Act or how it may affect your business, please feel free to read the following article:

Tip of the Month

According to experts, networking is one of the most effective ways to earn new business and build your customer base. A great way to network is to join a local networking group in your area. National networking clubs like LeTip have thousands of local chapters to accommodate people in almost every part of the nation. LeTip chapters hold weekly meetings that provide great information on running a business in your local community as well as facilitate networking time in order for you to develop qualified leads from other LeTip members. You can find out more about LeTip by visiting www.letip.com or calling Cal Coast at 888-281-7665.


From Our Clients
I recently hired you to design a new web page for me. It was our first working experience and I must admit I was a bit hesitant. I have had many disappointments with vendors over the web and I was concerned this might just be another one. The page is now completed and I am delighted. Thank you so much for the fantastic job. I am your customer for life.
