Given that the name and main-page logo are not going to change (per Hugh), I think we need to begin to think about how to'feature' it. What do you think about a number of images that are evocative of a cow used in various sections in the site? Like a cow looking around a corner, a cow snooping over a fence, cows in various poses, etc. It could become the 'brand'. Actually, the more I think about it, the more I like it.

Does anyone here know anything about SEO (Search Engine Optimization)? It would be nice if anytime someone searches on something related to this topic, this site pops up in the result. Would also be nice to 'piggyback' on searches for Arduno, PicAxe, BasicStamp etc.

In my opinion I have the Meta Tags already relative good filled.
For my understanding is using protected Marketnames as Arduino, PicAxe, BasicStamp only for advertising, --and this is when it is put in METATAGS without having a real Content about it -- evil an can lead into Legal Issues.
What for Search engines is more important are links from other sites, but we should not conentrate on this. Use it and spread the Word is the best advertising we can have.
And writing about Great Cow Basic in some Forums is always a good idea as well.
Just my two Cents.

To get the word out everyone should post to social media such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn or YouTube. The more posts the better.

Currently, the Great_Cow_BASIC Twitter account has 11 following. Not very good really.

Nearly 100% increase. Wow that is huge,. or, I misread.
