I want to know if we buy social signals from website like buyfok.com, how it will affect in seo?
-
I saw many website link https://buyfok.com/ which sell social media followers like instagram, facebook followers and likes.
I was thinking to increase my social followers/signals for SEO purpose. That's why I want to ask, how these websites followers will affect in SEO?

Just don't!!!!
Buying in an unnatural number of new followers which causes a significant one off spike which will be seen as fake and more thank likely hinder your efforts than help. As per Casey, concentrate on your content, make it unique, high quality and link worthy. This will in turn attract new natural shares, likes and links. These likes and shares will also put your content in front of like minded people in similar demographics with similar interests.

It will do zilch. For one, you should never buy followers/likes - what is the point other than to inflate your following count?
Social media is all about engagement. It's better to have a small number of followers who like, comment and share rather than thousands. Social media's part of SEO is to help encourage your community to like, comment and share your blog articles and web pages. It's an amplification tool to get your content in front of more eyes online and to hopefully encourage natural link building.
I'd suggest having a read of this: https://moz.com/blog/battle-for-traffic-organic-vs-social-media
Good luck!

Is it important for SEO that YouTube and Google + be used under the same Google Account?
Hello - I have a client that has their Google Plus and YouTube under separate Google accounts. My thoughts are that it'd be best for SEO and awareness with Google that their active YouTube channel to be under their active Google Plus account. My question is: Is it recommended for SEO that we upload the videos to her prominent Google business account (they only have about 100 subscribers)? If we did this we would delete them from the other account to avoid dup. content. We are in a position where we can make this change easily if it is recommended and good for SEO--which I would think it would be. So we would like to know now if we should make this change before we grow the YouTube channel further, or if we should leave it how it is. Any insight would be very helpful! Thank you!

Whats the SEO value of getting Likes to your brand's Facebook Page (not your site's URLs being Liked)?
UPDATED: I meant to say SEO VALUE, not just business value Lets say I have a site - www.company.com, and I set up a Facebook Page - www.facebook.com/company. I understand the SEO value of having the domain www.company.com "Liked", using the FB Like button on my homepage lets say, or the same goes for individual pages - www.company.com/page. My question is rather about having my Facebook Page - Facebook.com/company "Liked". Are those likes counted by the engines as a strong signal that www.company.com should rank well? Or only that the Facebook Page - Facebook.com/company should rank well in searches for that company?

Buying Traffic?
Hi Everyone, Has anybody ever bought traffic using a site like visitorboost.com? What are your thoughts? What other services are there? We are trying to supplement our "like/follower" campaigns, while we wait on our organic methods to build followers. Think of a HVAC company just starting out in social....they dont have time to build and nurture a list, (although we will for the future) they need sales now...so they trun to radio, print ads, etc. If we could buy thousands of followers in a demographic that made sense and it was affordable, is it worth a try to get the word out? Thanks in advance guys!
