How to get power tweets & Likes for social signals!
-
Hi,
Just been looking into social signals a little deeper.
From what I have read a tweet from one page is not the same as a tweet from another page, the authority and influence is also a big part.
So a tweet from CNN does a lot more then a tweet from a random.
So how do you find these authority and influential pages/users?
I have come across Klout.com which gives a score out of 100, which is one way I guess BUT I have also noticed mozbar stats change for different facebook pages.
Q: Can you use the mozbar on facebook & twitter pages to workout who will generate the best social signals?
Cheers

Hi Jen,
Thanks for the reply.
That would be useful, social seems like a big area now for SEO and I think maybe even some SEOmoz input on the subject would be great.

Hi! Unfortunately to answer your last question, I don't think that using the Mozbar on specific pages will be overly helpful to determine those high authority accounts. While it will show you backlinks and overall page/domain authority it doesn't show you the number of followers, how often they tweet, how many retweets they get, etc.
Klout and similar services are an interesting way to finding influential/authoritative users, but it shouldn't be the only strategy. Each of the social sites has different ways to go about this and different tools exist. There are a number of great posts out there that about how to do this on the different platforms. Let me do some searches and I'll add them here!
Thanks,
Jen

Building relationships with people in your field is key, Google + is very good for this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/5-tips-for-managing-community-on-google-plus. Mention people in your niche, comment on their posts, give them value. Then ask them to share your content/tweets etc...

Will these 301's get me penalized?
Hey everyone, We're redesigning parts of our site and I have a tricky question that I was hoping to get some sound advice about. We have a blog (magazine) with subcategory pages that are quite thin. We are going to restructure the blog (magazine) and feature different concert and have new subcategories. So we are trying to decide where to redirect the existing subcategory pages, e.g. Entertainment, Music, Sports, etc. www.charged.fm/magazine Our new ticket category pages ( Concert Tickets, NY Yankees Tickets, OKC Thunder Tickets, etc) are going to feature a tab called 'Latest News' where we are thinking of 301 redirecting the old magazine subcategory pages. So Sports News from the blog would 301 to Sports Tickets (# Latest News tab). See screenshot below for example. So my question is: Will this look bad in the eyes of the GOOG? Are these closely related enough to redirect? Are there any blatant pitfalls that I'm not seeing? It seems like a win/win because we are making a rich Performer page with News, Bio, Tickets and Schedule and getting to reallocate the link juice that was being wasted in an pretty much useless page that was allowed to become to powerful. Gotta keep those pages in check! Thoughts appreciated. Luke Cn6HPpH.jpg

Should we get a new domain that has our main keyword in it.
We have been running our site about 10 years under the domain www.islesurfboards.com and we are referred as "Isle Surfboards" when linked to in the anchor text. Our core product line and keyword focus has always been on "surfboards" and its related long tail keywords. However in the last several years we have began to sell "paddle boards" and now they have become our best selling product accouting for 80% of our business. We really want to rank well for "paddleboards" and related words but noticed we always seem to fall below people who have websites with "paddleboard" or "sup" in the domain and company name. will they always rank better unless we also inlcude it in ours? Should we move to a New Domain that focuses on the new target keyword "paddleboard" or a combo of both "surfboards" and "paddleboards"and would this make any difference or even hurt us since it would be a new domain. Then in addition rebrand our company name to include surfboards and/or paddleboards in the company name or some combo of both so the anchor text when people who refer to us relate to both paddle boards and surfboards?

Sharing same IP address as competitor - Pros & Cons?
Hey there! I was wondering is there were any particular 'Pros or Cons' to sharing the same server IP address as a competitors website which links back? Site 'A' = http://goo.gl/N1JUO // Stockists of Site 'B' brand products Site 'B' = http://goo.gl/fU9hc // Links to all Stockists of it products with a follow link including site 'A' It is desirable for site 'A' to rank above site 'B' to reduce the volume of visitors finding other stockists linked to from the stockists page of site 'B' when searching for site 'A' primary broadest keyword. However, site 'B' is one of site 'A' best in-bound links. So does it matter that site 'A' is sharing the same server IP address as site 'B'. Also should site 'A' have only 'no-follow' links to site 'B'? Look forward to your input fellow SEOMozers 🙂 Cheers! Ben
