If they end up keeping this feature it really does open up new doors in the marketing arena. I wrote about <a href="http://www.johnfitzsimmons.com/archives/2005/09/nokia_7710_gold_1.html" rel="nofollow">something similar</a> to this back when Google first introduced their blogsearch. The general idea was that at some point in the future companies would hire a blogging sales force to keep themselves constantly near the top of blog search engines like technorati. And now with things like twitter.com becoming more popular the idea of real time access to people (potentially sales reps) via the web or mobile device is coming closer to reality. Imagine a day when you are looking for web hosting on Google and see a real time ‘topic based’ twitter-esque feed by web hosting sales reps. Then imagine you can just jump in and ask them question. Crazy possibilities. The near future will definitely be an interesting place to be for digital marketing of all kinds. On a side note… I can’t believe you are optimizing for the word “web hosting”. Good luck with that up hill battle! That’s a pretty cool find. If they end up keeping this feature it really does open up new doors in the marketing arena.

I have gotten some pretty good results for these terms and relatd terms as well. It is a very difficult term to go for but you just need to leverage all of your resources to rank for it. I took it on as a personal challange to myself. I was happy with my results. My buddy Adam just joined twitter.com. I feel like I am missing out. I am going to go start an account today!! Thanks John!! I have currently stopped my optimization for it. I have gotten some pretty good results for these terms and relatd terms as well.
