Re-branding Company Social Profiles
-
Hi
Does anyone have experience of re-branding LinkedIN or Facebook? Can you keep the company page/followers and just change your name or do you have to start again?
Thank you!
-
In my experiece I created some brand pages related to one of my product, create some trending content and when the page is ranked I merge the old with the new one.
-
Sure they will, but it will likely take a bit of time
Good luck!!!

Hi
Yes I see your point. I found this article on Moz https://moz.com/blog/how-to-rebrand-your-social-media-accounts
I think if you prove it with documents then it's more likely to be accepted?
-
That's a valid point, however without reaching out to them you're unlikely to be able to completely change the branding. You need to see things from their POV too - perhaps somebody would promote a charity at first and then switch to porn one night. They need to have control over these.

Thanks, I'm trying to research as a lot of places must have this problem.
The main concern is losing the likes/follows built up
-
I don't think you'll be able to change everything (the URL for example) yourself, but you should definitely log a support ticket with both sites and ask them to do this for you. Facebook might not be possible at all - but I think Linkedin will.
Hope this helps
If it does please send a like. Thanks!

Manual submission vs automated submission to social bookmarking sites for blog posts
Howdy Mozzers! Say we're creating great content on our blog and would like this content to be seen and shared by as many people possible. Should we submit our blog posts manually to social book marking sites or use an automated service like Only Wire? The advantage of using automation is obvious, saves time on submission. Are there disadvantages? Is google bot going to raise an eyebrow and give us a dirty look? Cheers! MozAddict

Website Competiton - sharing the entry on social media
Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you could help me with this. Basically one of our clients will host a competition on their website soon. Once a visitor completed the entry form I would like to have social media buttons on that page that automatically place text into your social media account if you chose to "share" or "tweet" your entry. For example it could automatically place "I have just entered to win .... You should try it out as well!" into the twitter or Facebook posting field. I have tried looking around, but honestly I am not sure what the look for. How could this be achieved or what it is called? Thank you

What is the best Practice for Adding Social Buttons to your Sites from SEO Perspective?
Hey Guys, As you all know there are many social buttons out there that can be added to your website. Facebook Like button, Twitter's Tweet and Follow buttons, Google +1, and AddThis buttons are just a few to mention. All of these buttons can be customized, eg. you may choose to point your FB Like button to your homepage, to a specific inner page, or to your Facebook Brand Page. Same with your +1 button. Moreover, you may choose to add Twitter and Google+ Follow buttons to your site's pages, and so on. My questions are very simple: Is there any best practice for adding social buttons to your site from SEO perspective? if yes, Which social buttons to add? Where is the ideal place for them on your page? Where these buttons should be pointing to? your homepage? specific inner page? or to your official brand pages? Thanks in Advance, Yogev.

Social Media For Doctors Office Help!
I have a client that I am doing web-work for...I recommended for him to claim his Facebook Place page as well as create a twitter account. He's a little skeptical and doesn't think that a doctors office needs a Facebook and twitter page. I strongly disagree with him and would like to show him some facts. Has anyone ever done social media for a doctors office before or know where I can get some good information? Thanks in advance!
