Hello,
        I had in mind to create a new ontology based on FOAF and/or REL: 
RELATIONSHIP: A vocabulary for describing relationships between people: 
http://vocab.org/relationship/.html

and so initially it is just going to be myrel which will also be the 
namespace.  I had in mind an application of displaying additional 
information that isn't specified in the REL vocabulary.  As a business 
owner, I also have clients and the REL vocabulary only has colleageOf that 
comes closest.  I would need hasClient and then additional information that 
I might want to display such as jobs/tasks which relates to my experience 
(and hopefully others will find this of value also.  I would also like to 
add training as either a class or set of properties of a FOAF:Person.  So, 
I would publish myrel with a different name and on web pages using RDFa I 
would include the link to the vocabulary in the beginning of the document 
with other namespace prefixes.  

            My question relates to how things like this help with SEO or 
Marketing and with being able to publish information that you want 
"understood" by the search engines.  Can Google make any kind of reasoning, 
even the simple class and property type RDFS inferences?  Many people have 
been including FOAF data in their web pages using RDFa but using the most 
popular search engine, Google, can we offer some additional information 
that would help with SEO or Semantic Marketing by giving Google more 
semantic data to index and include when people are doing searches?  It's 
easy enough to present these various namespaces of the Semantic Web in an 
RDFa web page at the very top where the namespace prefixes are included, 
but does this benefit them at all in terms of SEO when people are not using 
specialized Semantic search engines?  

       It may be that when a Google bot parses the page for indexing, the 
bot can refer to the referenced vocabularies to gather the meaning of the 
data on the page.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts on this topic,

Bruce
