Will any of the following keywords, with the registered mark, have any affect when Company Name is being searched, or do symbols and tags play no role?
Company Name (obviously no affect)
Company Name®
Company Name®
Company Name®
Company Name<sup>®</sup>
Company Name<sup>®</sup>
Company Name<sup>®</sup>
At least one SEO believes that the search engines will treat the variations all the same. We can see from the a Google search for Adobe® vs. Adobe that the term does not in change the result count.
In most of what I have seen in various keyword tools, search engines like to just assume non-alphanumeric characters are just spaces. My advice would be to just encode the entities (e.g. ®)

I am a founder for a tech summer camp program. My website has a page full of resources for web-development meant for camp participants and has been getting lots of traffic from people querying html colors, css cheat sheet, and other similar terms.
My question is: will traffic from these terms hurt my SEO for queries involving things like summer camps,tech camps halifax, or other more related queries? or Is any traffic good for my SEO?
Note: We have no problem with people accessing these resources, so I haven't bothered to password protect it or add robots.txt or anything. The site is compcamp.ca and the resource page I mentioned is compcamp.ca/web-development-design-resources/
Google ranks the site compcamp.ca/web-development-design-resources/ well for search-queries like css cheat-sheet, because the content of your site contains the keywords and so on.
There are no Keywords for "tech camps halifax" and so on. So Google won't rank this subsite.
If you want to rank fpr "tech camps halifax" you have to take content on a site (i would expect the start page) which contains those keywords.
The other way round: Successful search queries on your cheat-sheet sub-site won't hurt your rankings from other sub-pages which delivers different information = different keywords.
I hope this is answering your question, don't bother to ask if not.

I do know that including search phrases in the URL helps in increasing the rank of the website on Search Engines. But is that the case with Non-latin characters like Arabic or Chinese?
Is it better to keep the URL in Arabic for an Arabic website, knowing that it will be encoded in some browsers? or turn it to English?
The content of your site will have a much bigger impact on your SEO than the URL itself. That's not to say a good, SEO-friendly URL isn't important (because it is) but site content has more impact.
In addition, your content should be geared toward your target audience, using phrases and search terms that audience is likely to use to find your website.

we all have heard about benefits of microblogs but what if we have a microblog and want to boost it's SEO?
the biggest problem in microblogs is keywords are not related to each other and each topic has a small amount of related keywords.
for example if we have a microblog that has short tips about all fields in computer sience, and a blog that publish articles in this field too.
the outlined blog has a better chance to be appeared in SERP, instead the underlined microblog has no chance because of it's limited keywords.
am i right and what is the SEO solution for these microblogs?
In theory, blog with more keywords can rank better than microblog with few keywords because there is more content on blog.
For many seo addicts, content is king! No matter support of website, the most important is having always more content (and thus keywords).
In my opinion, blog is more powerful in seo than microblog.

I have developed a website for a firm that deals in pumps, valves and diesel engines. They require that when an interested user searches with some keywords like "Pump Dealers" or "Valve Dealers", their site should appear in the results. Currently I am not aware of how I can go about this, so my question is what should I do in order for better page ranking. I am using meaningful page titles and have enough text in every page.
Any suggestion is welcome.
Firstly Pagerank is irrelevant these days, so don't worry about that.
You should ensure that you use Google's Webmaster Tools to check that Google knows about your site etc. This will tell you what things it is coming up for on Google.
Make sure that the page has the text on it you want to rank for - as you mention, titles, headers etc will help but don't over do it.
The main thing to do is to get links to your site – write interesting blog posts, contact customers etc so they link to you.
It really depends on who your competition is for those terms - if there are already 10 huge companies ranking for those terms then you are stuck.
The other way to do this is to buy Adwords – this will likely cost upwards of $5-10 a day to get any meaningful traffic though.
