I like patents too, though they can sometimes be difficult to sort through to find the relevant information.

The same people who read Google patents generally read Yahoo patents. I wouldn’t start optimizing specifically for a patent. Search engines may or may not be doing what’s in them.

But if you read enough or follow the blogs of some of the people who do you can start to see patterns in where search engines might be going.

See if you can get into a conversation with someone who has a good amount of followers. If they reply to you then many of their followers will see and check out your profile.

Also link to your profile in your blog and on other social media profiles. For example if you have an account at StumbleUpon add a link to your Twitter profile.

Otherwise just be a good Twiterer. Be interesting, helpful, and entertaining.

I hope so too. Odds are something in the list will be helpful to you.

Great list Steven.
I found google patents to be most valuable source of info. Thanks for the links.

Has anybody read Yahoo patents? Does any of you optimise or build links specially for yahoo purposes? I don’t – yahoo just follows google in my case.

One thing that your twitter list misses, is how to get more followers. What methods have you found really help get you more followers?

Thanks Gyutae. As always a link in your direction was much deserved.

Yeah a lot did happen in December. For awhile things were quiet, but they seemed to pick up at the end of the year. It probably reads like a 2008 recap just because of all the 2008 recaps out there.

Great post, Steven. Thanks for including me. Looks like a lot happened in December… this reads more like a 2008 recap than a 1 month one.

Resistance is futile Dave. It is a lot to absorb. And if you think this is a lot just think of all the posts I read this month to whittle it down to the ones here.
