Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great week. Christmas is fast approaching and giveaways, promotions and all that stuff is starting to emerge. SEMrush, a professional marketing tool for SEOs, has been kind enough to offer two PRO accounts for one full year, for 2 lucky readers of iblogzone. The SEMrush giveaway is still running, in case you missed it. In any event, here is another PROMO you might be interested in. SEMrush has provided me with a special x’mas code, that gives you a full one month free PRO access to their tool. Use this CODE if you want to take advantage of this offer (ends Dec. 25). If you ever wanted to see what this tool can do for you, now would be a good time. If after the promotion period you don’t wish to continue, just cancel it and you’ll be fine. BTW, stay tuned this week, because there is another giveaway you don’t want to miss.
On a different front, Google ZeitGeist 2012, is finally available for you to explore. Zeitgeist, in case you are wondering, is Google’s “year in review” report about what the world searched for in 2012. This data, used properly, may shed some light to giving you ideas about a lot of things for your marketing objectives in 2013. Either way, aren’t you just curious?
Finally, and one noteworthy news, is about FaceBook making it easier to get page likes for SMBs. It’s objective is primarily to help small businesses (SMBs) with fewer than 10,000 fans, to incraese their fan base. So, why use Fiverr now, when you can use FB “legally”, lol. Anyway, what do you think about this move? Do you even see what benefit will this actually bring to SMBs?

Anyone nabbing that SEMrush giveaway can count him/herself really lucky. And it’s going to be a lucky Christmas for them too, since the giveaways ends on the 25th.
