Lost social share count after migrating blog
-
Hi,
Yesterday I migrated our blog to a new domain. It seems it went smoothly and all 301 redirects were implemented and are working properly, however, the social share count was lost across all posts and has returned to zero.
Is there any easy way I can recover our social share counts across the board?
I am using the **1-click Retweet/Share/Like **plugin for Wordpress. Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Thank you, from Russell in South Africa.

Hi Priya! Has your social share count rebounded?

Hi Russel,
Michael King of iAcquire wrote a great blog post about keeping your social sharing counts after a sites migration. I would recommend reading his article, here on Search Engine Watch. While it will probably be hard if you're not a developer to integrate this within the WP plugin you're using for this.
Hope this helps!

Requirement full bleed image share Google+?
Hi everyone, Im sort of a Google+ nutter and I wanted to figure out exactly what is required for a full bleed image to appear for +1 share on the page itself. I got it figured out and I think it requires: canonical url og:image image wider then 506px type article or page (microdata format) But sometimes it seems that pages without a canonical url still show full bleed image when shared as link when I insert the url directly into a google+ post. My question is if this could be a cached version of the page where it had a canonical url? Don't really know if that anyone is interested but I made a simple tool that checks if a page meets requirements for having a full bleed image when share as link on Google+. Think I nailed it pretty close but can't seem to get the full bleed image to appear for the tool itself do:) Please dont ask. It's driving me mad already. http://www.googlewiki.nl/seo-checker/check-fullbleed.php Try it. Take a blog post url, check it with this tool and then see for yourself if it's accurate. If not I would like to hear very much as it would help me pin point it better! Examples of pages with specific no no factors for you to try are:

Hey everything, how is it going? I am fully convinced of the importance of Social Media. I already witnessed the power of social with my facebook fan page. I am fully implementing facebook, twitter, youtube, and pinterest. I am starting to use Google +. Is there any other social "must" for companies in order to include them on my social media profile? such as Linked In, Scribd, SlideShare. etc.. I forgot to mention we are specialized B2B Ecommerce company.

Is it possible to get high page ranking with no social media activity?
I'm curious to know how much social media effects the chances of being more highly ranked on Google. I appreciate it's important to 'be seen' by Google, but if articles/newsletters are being written, does it really matter if a business isn't using Twitter or Facebook, etc?

What are different strategies to achieve a strong social presence for clients in multiple industries? How do you best leverage your time?
I just finished watching the mozinar on "The End of Search Without Social" mozinar, and I have so many points that I want to implement for our agency. The problem I see is that we have clients in about 20 different industries. How do you create strong social relationships in each of these industries for your clients? It seems that you could have more influence if you built all into your own personal profiles or your SEO company's to create that great fan base. Anyone have success in doing it across the board? Thanks!
