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.

I was told to delete ".html" from web application links in order to be better seen by Google bot. So example.com/path/to/resource.html should be example.com/path/to/resource. I didn't find any document saying that format of the resource, placed in urls, has any influence as such. No matter if it's php, htm, html or any other aspx.
So, how is it? Does omitting the .html, or any other format, make any difference to Google bot?
No not at all. You don't get more or lose ranking because of that. It is not worth the effort.

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.

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.

My company has given me a PDF that's already been mastered, packaged, etc. but of course the one thing they didn't do is add a linking hotspot over the 2" square ad space that they've set out for themselves. I have a hard time imagining people click links in PDFs with any regularity but can't find any knowledge to back that up. Are there any benefits to search? As of now the only place this linked version will exist is on the site that the ad itself links to.
Thanks.
I haven't seen anything definitive that says search engines parse PDFs for links or if they help SEO or not. But Google does read and index PDFs, and some flash as well, so those links are probably being seen by them. If I were to speculate about this I would say those links do have some SEO value. All of the rules would apply to it such as anchor text, link popularity (probably to the PDF document), etc.
Most people seem to regard PDF as "Printable Document File" rather than "Portable Document Format". If the document has the website address on it, that is sufficient.

i have 5 dynmic artcile in my home page, (random)
How quick google will read my content ,
First tell me Really Google will cron my content or not becoz am changes my content every page refresh ,
So i have this doubt ,
Google Will crawl random content Or Not ?
Thanks
Google will crawl anything. But if your content is random you'll soon get a Google ban/discount. Regularly changing content is good, random content is not.
Also, your content is only a small portion of your search results these days. Getting relevant links (links from websites with domain authority) has much more influence.
