Syntax rules can be used, or highlighting with matchad().
One approach would be to use this tip (it uses matchadd()):
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Highlight_multiple_words
Use :Hsample to show a sample of the hightlights, which you can
change by editing the supplied highlights.csv file.
Assuming you want the same highlights over several sessions, you
could put commands like these in a file (say my.vim):
Hi 7 alpha
Hi 8 beta
Hi 9 gamma.delta
In Vim, use this command to source (apply) the commands:
:so my.vim
The '.' in 'gamma.delta' matches any character. It's an easy way
of highlighting 'gamma delta' (with a space).
Hmmm, looking at the tip I see that I had forgotten about :Hsave
and :Hrestore which would be another way to save settings.
There is also the Mark-script
(http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2666), which let's you
add highlights on-the-fly. You can then also jump from mark to mark
(with <Leader>* and <Leader>/).
