Facebook pages are "no-follow" meaning no juice is passed directly to the site. However, the different signals and navigation of the viewers has an indirect organic affect. If your traffic is increased with a "no-follow" then it is affecting your "organic results" indirectly. However, the page rank "juice" isn't transferred via page rank, but rather by sending traffic.

While the links are nofollow, Google and Bing have both confirmed that links shared through twitter and facebook do have a direct impact on rankings. this was posted randfish of seomoz back in 2010 and i dont believe this has changed http://www.seomoz.org/blog/google-bing-confirm-twitter-facebook-influence-seo. heres another more recent post by the same author on the subject http://www.seomoz.org/blog/facebook-twitters-influence-google-search-rankings

I think you need to look beyond Page Rank. Make sure you set you FB page to show info rather than timeline/news feed by default for non-fans.
Look to other stats such as visitors from your FB page and then use your FB wall well to influence your SEO in a natural way

doesn't pass PR, but Google picks up on the social signals and takes that into some consideration with their rankings so if you own a site you should at least set up a FB page for that site.
not sure what you mean with the second question and how it relates to FB

Facebook links are nofollow. However, it's a great way to promote content and get other people to link to you. Basically Facebook doesn't give you link juice, but it helps you get it from other people.

Facebook URLs, Anchor Text
I have a client that is considering a facebook url change. For ease of explanation, let's say their currently existing URL is facebook.com/Company123. I've googled their currently existing facebook url and found a dozen or so websites that include the text, "facebook.com/Company123". But, these results don't include websites that have an anchor text of, for example, "Facebook" and a link pointing to facebook.com/Company123. Has anybody had success tracking down any/all websites that point to a specific Facebook url? I've tried Open Site Explorer, OpenLinkprofiler, RankSignals, and SEO SpyGlass to no avail. Thank you!

The website has been around for several years, although did undergo a significant redesign at the end of last year. I greatly appreciate any help.

How to legally run an onsite competition from Facebook?
Hi Guys, I am thinking about running a competition on my website in order to drive traffic to it, however the regulations that govern competitions around FB are convoluted to say the least. I am under the impression that I can advertise the competition on FB by direct them to an external site. Does anyone have any experience with this and can guide me, so I dont burn a well established Social Profile with over 2,200 connections? Thank you for any help you can give me. Kind Regards, Craig

Pass Page LinkJuice? Or Pass Keyword LinkJuice?
I have a popular page that is not one of the three pages that I am hoping to raise awareness of (want to focus on). The dilemma I am trying to understand is that I really don't want to encourage all the flow from the popular to ONE of my hopeful pages (focus pages). Rather, I want to focus the keyword portions of that page to help the three hopeful pages. So I consider the rel=canonical tag.... err no. rel=canonical would pass ALL my popular page link juice to ONE of my three hopeful pages. What's the best way to pass the keyword link juice relevant to each of my three hopeful pages their, um, portion, of the popular page link juice. I'm white hat by preference. All four pages are good legitimate landing pages, and of course I dread sabotaging the popularity of what is working. Suggestions? Advice?
