As subject reads - I wonder if it possible to get the information about Facebook Likes, Google+´s and Tweets by using your API?

It would help a lot.

SEOmoz only has one API that provides access to their Linkscape index - it does not include social data such as Like's, +'s and Tweets.

Also, it seems like you have development resources available to utilize the APIs of the major social platforms. Have you considered going straight to the source?

Facebook OpenGraph API - http://developers.facebook.com/
Google+ API - https://developers.google.com/+/api/
Twitter API - https://dev.twitter.com/docs

Doctors in a Hospital - Setup Google Local or Google+ Profiles?

Hello - I've been running this over for awhile - so I'm curious to see what the community says about it. I'm working with a client who would like to brand the doctors in their hospitals. Many of them do have recognition already - and their associated locations have profiles. Google Local semi-recently said it's OK to brand Dr's names - even if they exist within a single location. So, my question is - is it better to go the Google Local route and create the Local/+ page for them, or to go through the Google+/Google Brand Pages route and create them that way? If each doctor were to decide, individually, to post on their page - would that be possible with the Places route (I don't think so, based on what I've seen)? Also, if a doctor already has a personal Google+ page - would it make sense to just create the additional brand page as well through this interface? Well either of these methods achieve optimal visibility as well as the option to post should they decide to go that route? What it boils down to - is this is a task we can perform from the outside, or is it best handled by giving the doctors best practice for setting up their personal Google+ pages and associated Brand Pages themselves? Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Google+ SERP

I just wanted to know if you have a Google+ page, should your page be displayed on the right hand side of the SERP when someone searches for your company name. We currently have set-up a Google+ page but it doesn't appear when someone searches for us. Any help?

Merge Facebook profiles for SEO?

We are considering merging facebook profiles for our three stores. If we do this, users will not be able to "check in" at a location, but wouldn't it be better to have 4,000 fans on one profile than to have 2,500, 1,000, and 500 fans on the three profiles? The main site for these stores is also an ecommerce site.

How do website owners gain from facebook scams like this?

I've noticed two things that are going wild on Facebook this week: http://timhortonsgiveaway.me/ and http://promoforipads.net/ In the first scenario, you supposedly just click share and they'll send you a $25 Tim Horton's gift card. (For those who don't know Tim's it is a very popular coffee shop in Canada). There's no way this is happening...they claim to have something like 5000 cards to give away. In the second one they're apparently giving away 1000 ipods. Yeah...OK. So, they're obviously scams that are just trying to get a few zillion facebook shares. But why?
