For people who want to have public online profiles and receive email alerts when someone clicks to see it, a service from Ziggs.com may be the answer.
Users who sign up for Ziggs Search Alerts can create a profile with as much or as little information about themselves. When that profile is recognized by search engines such as Google and Yahoo, you can gain certain information about who reads it.
One version of the service is free, sending you e-mail alerts. In the basic service, you are able to see basic information about the user including the person's general location, what keyword the person used to search for you, or the type of browser they're using.
All that information can also easily be found using Google Analytics in conjunction with your own web page, says Internet marketing expert Andy Beal of MarketingPilgrim.com.
A $4.95 version of the service called Ziggs WebPro places ads featuring your profile on search engines by purchasing Google Adwords for your name. The service is meant to place your ad in a higher position than it would normally be found just using natural search results.
