Social Media
-
With so many different social network sites these days which ones really make a difference when it comes to SEO, Facebook? LinkedIn?
I only have limited time with my clients websites and a really want and need to expand their social network exposure
-
you made a good point, so many of my clients keep bringing up budget but if they dont want to invest theirs not much point having an old social media setup, Thank you

I have set up facebook pages for a couple of local sites and the facebook pages themselves have bounced about between page 1 and page 2, appearing on page 1 within a week.
The business owners have tended to leave the pages to stagnate despite my advice and they are still showing on page 2 with no links but a keyword match name.
If the client (or you on their behalf) is prepared to update the status, tweet etc regularly then there may be SEO value but also wider marketing value. If the Twitter page and Facebook page are never updated then it may not be a wise use of your time which you mention is limited.

You have a lot of good info on your site looks good

Amen to that!

cheers buddy

cheers, COME ON MATT RE-TWEET FOR ANDY!!!!

thank you I apreciate that

Personally I use: digg.com, facebook, twitter and delicious - in the exact order posted.
It's a huge differences as far as impact the # of followers you have for each - the merrier the better (friends or likes with facebook, followers with digg and twitter and so on) but even with 0 followers with digg for example you can help some of your pages rank well.
The work involved is limited as far as time (resources) and you can easily spot the ones that work for you best and assign more time to get more exposure with those.
I vote with digg.com at this point as the main SN channel as it helped me a lot even with 0 or limited exposure (followers).
Is not what it was used to be but still it pulses a lot of power - I think it will soon become something like dmoz - it won't get to much direct traffic but you will have a good seo benefit from being present.

Google, Bing and Yahoo all use Facebook and Twitter as metrics, so I would suggest at least using those. But it is also about building up a reputable following as well. For example, if Matt Cutts were to re-tweet an article of mine, it would be a strong signal for the SE's.
Regards,
Andy

Chat GPT
I want to get your thoughts on Chat GPT for creating articles on my site to drive SEO. Does Google approve of this type of content or not? I seems quite good quality - I suppose a key question also is: is it duplicate content? I have used on Propress website and also on blog sites so need to understand if this will reduce my rankings. Thanks

New blog contributors
For context my website is a content resource portal. In SEO training I have been told that it is a good SEO move to have as many content contributors as possible. As a result we are pushing to recruit new content contributors so they can be listed as new contributors/authors on our site alongside their valuable content. Would this move be good for our SEO rankings and is there anything in particular to consider with this?

Internal Links from Blog
Quick question. In regards to linking to products from your blog. I've read recently that linking excessively between your site can be a bad SEO habit. So, I was curious if anyone else has heard of this. Plus, if you have a blog, how many internal links should you have going to you pages on your site - other blogs, products etc? Thanks.

If I write a article for a client and use Social Book Marking software, will this add value (or does the value depend on how ofen it gets shared)?
I'm about to start experimenting with bookmarking software. My first step is trying Ping.com (because it's free), but I am also keen to try Onlywire.com (which comes at a cost- darn). My questions are: when I create an article for a client and post to all these social sites will this make a difference? Or will it only make a difference if people share the article? Has anyone been experimenting with social bookmarking software that can tell me what results they have had and how they got there? Thanks a mil!
