Workshop-3: SEM (SEO/SEA) Practices of a University website


Optimizing Content for SEO

Suggested Improvements for SEO:


1. The head terms (generic) are usually hard to list for, so using long tail keywords thoroughly
and uniformly.
Eg. Head terms: Technical University (generic)
Long tail terms: Technical University in Punjab (specific)
2. Using the keywords according to the theme of the page and not overcrowding the page
with the relevant keywords (Checking keyword density). Overcrowding the page with lot of
keywords creates an awkward tone and disrupts the flow.
3. Using Alt Image tags for images and videos used on the website.
4. Optimizing Title tags, Meta tags, structured data, text modifiers for every page that show up
in the Search Engine results page.

Try and include at least one keyword in title tag as well as in Meta description tag. It may
not necessarily help in ranking but it increases the chances to get a better CTR because
Google highlights the keywords both in title and Meta description tag.
5. Creating a sitemap in order to help Google autobots to scroll through the entire website and
index every page.
6. During the phase of keyword research, adding latent and semantic terms to the list might
help in overall process of SEO.
7. While adding documents on any page, use keywords that are relevant to the document as
well to other documents it is linking to.

Workshop-4: Attack against AMUL GOLD


On 10 October, Neha Tomar, a regular Amul Gold Milk consumer, posted the pictures of a
foam-like substance that came out of the tumbler when her mother-in-law tried to make
cheese out of the spoilt milk. She appealed to everyone not to consume the "deadly milk" and
that strict, stringent action should be taken against Amul.
To deal with suck kind of social media attacks, a company should follow the following approach
1. Analyze current situation
2. Win customers confidence
3. Respond back

Analyze Current Situation


By looking at the post, you will see the
transition of the customer from the Adult
Ego State to Parebt Ego State. Initially she
talks about bad customer service and then
she talks about the toxicity of the product
and its harm to the society which clearly
shows the transition.
To deal with a person in a Parent Ego State,
one should respond to him/her by starting
from a Child Ego State and slowly upgrading
yourself and downgrading the person to
Adult Ego State, where actual development
takes place.

This is exactly what Amul did. They called her to listen to her complain and tried to find the
technical explanation to her bad experience. They also checked the whole product lot to find
out if similar complaints were there or not.

Win Customers Confidence


After doing a through homework, the approached Neha Tomar and fixed a meeding with her,
which she talked about in an FB post on 13th Oct 2014.
In the post, Neha ha clearly described her talk with Amul Executives and also write about her
meeting arrangements. Through one-to-one interaction, Amul wants to take Neha into
confidence, explaining her that what happened was because of a scientific phenomenon and
not because of the bad quality of
the product.

Respond Back
Responding back to the negative
review is important to show public
that company cares. This helps to
repair the damages caused and in
some cases, it even helps to gain
sympathy of the customer.
After this, Amul write a final post
in response to Nehas complain in
which they attached a link to the
video clearly explaining to other consumers about the same. By this approach, Amul was able to
tackle to the negative response in 4 days time.

Case Study: Is Google liable for trademark infringement?


What is Trademark?
As per TRIPS Agreement (Article 15)
Trademark can be sign, or any combination of signs, capable of distinguishing the goods and
services of one undertaking from those of other undertakings, must be eligible for registration
as a trademark, provided that it is visually perceptible. Such signs, in particular words including

personal names, letters, numerals, figurative elements and combinations of colours as well as
any combination of such signs, must be eligible for registration as trademarks.

Rights of Trademark Owner


As per TRIPS Agreement (Article 16.1)
The owner of a registered trademark must be granted the exclusive right to prevent all third
parties not having the owner's consent from using in the course of trade identical or similar
signs for goods or services which are identical or similar to those in respect of which the
trademark is registered where such use would result in a likelihood of confusion. In case of the
use of an identical sign for identical goods or services, a likelihood of confusion must be
presumed.

Essence of trademark infringement in Indian law


India is the member country of the TRIPS Agreement and is obligatory to have law on
Trademark registration and infringement.
India Laws have clearly defined trademark and trademark infringement under Trade Mark Act
1999 which is
Trade mark means a mark capable of being represented graphically and which is capable of
distinguishing the goods or services of one person from those of others and may include shape
of goods, their packaging and combination of colors
Source:http://www.ipindia.nic.in/IPActs_Rules/tmrAct/Chapter1/Section2.htm

Trademark infringement in India means violation of exclusive rights granted to registered


proprietor under Trade Marks Act 1999 to use the same in relation to the goods and services in
respect of which trademark is registered.
Source:http://www.ssrana.in/Intellectual%20Property/Infringement/Infringement-and-Passing-Off-of-Trademark.aspx

Bharat Matrimony Vs Google


The facts of the case at hand are quite simple. The Plaintiffs, BharatMatrimony.com, had
registered in their name a series of trademarks such as Telugu Matrimony, Urdu Matrimony,

Tamil Matrimony etc. The terms Telugu, Urdu etc. are the names of languages and are their
use in the trademark is descriptive and not arbitrary. The same stands true for the second
standard component which is Matrimony. Defendant No. 1, Google India Pvt. Ltd., was being
sued for trademark infringement because of its Keywords Suggestion Tool, which was
suggesting the use of the Plaintiffs registered trademark for Googles Ad-words program
(ultimately which helped google to earn profit). Defendants No. 2 to 4, all of them running
competing matrimonial websites, were using the Plaintiffs registered trademarks as keywords
thereby displaying their advertisements as sponsored links on the Google search page
whenever a user keyed in the Plaintiffs trademarks into the Google search engine.
Supporting Law:
Trade Marks Act 1999, Section 29 (4): A registered trade mark is infringed by a person who, not
being a registered proprietor or a person using by way of permitted use, uses in the course of
trade, a mark which
(a) Is identical with or similar to the registered trade mark; and
(b) Is used in relation to goods or services which are not similar to those for which the trade
mark is registered; and
(c) The registered trade mark has a reputation in India and the use of the mark without due
cause takes unfair advantage of or is detrimental to, the distinctive character or repute of the
registered trade mark.
Source: http://indiankanoon.org/doc/84096/

Our Approach
We will favor broader approach which clearly says that use of trademark will lead to
infringement if a defaulter uses the designation in such a way that causes potential buyer
confused as to source, sponsorship, affiliation or approval when confronted with two similar
designations which tell viewer that they identify a single source when, in fact, they are from
two different sources.
Reason: It is clearly mentioned in the TRIPS Agreement that trademark is meant to create
distinction. If by any mean it is creating confusion, it is an act of infringement and an action
should be taken against it.
