Facebook Check-In Changes
-
Can someone please direct me to a good article on how the recent facebook changes to how check ins are calculated affect SEO? Or even give me an explanation here?
-
We have been following this closely. Facebook has changed the calculation of check ins.....they say it is to make sure that they have a better represenation of how many people actually went to a location. You cna get some of the detail from the facebook studio blog that I have pasted below.....
Essentially they are saying that when users check in to a place multiple times in a 12 hour period, it will only count as one check in. (The old model was you could get multiple check ins added to the page total for each check in.) Same is true if you upload a bunch of photos....only one credit. If you check into a place and upload a photo and then you tag several friends in conjunction with the location, then you will be counted as yourself and each tagged friend....
Hope this gives you clarity...
Here is the link......

Videos perform poorly on facebook...why?
I have a facebook page with 42,000 Real fans. Images, screenshots, links, questions, etc all perform well. But videos get 0 interaction. If I get 5 likes that is saying something. Why would facebook not send out my videos to people? Is there a way to increase them? It is very frustrating to post our youtube videos to get no response. My fans are most 13-30 yr old gamers, so videos should be right up their alley.

Facebook Likes not counted
So many of my clients are (very) small businesses and have added a like button to their website home pages that actually has the person liking their Facebook page rather than the website. Without debating the pros and cons of this approach, it would seem that Facebook has changed it so that if someone clicks a like button that is for a page they have not actually visited the like does not show up in the like count for that page? Is that correct?

Do facebook shares pass share juice the same way links pass link juice?
If i have a page on my domain say PAGE-A and let's say it's located at: http://www.mydomain.com/something/page-a and this page has quite a lot of page authority from many many inbound links. It is my understanding that if i "sculpt" the internal links on PAGE-A to point at only my primary targets, let's call the PAGE-B, PAGE-C, and PAGE-D; then those pages would gain some benefit from this link juice flowing through. Consider a similar situation where i have a page, say PAGE-F located at: http://www.mydomain.com/anotherpage/page-F and page-F gets 150 facebook shares. would the links on page-F pass this benefit on in any way? Or is only the direct target of the facebook share gaining benefit from this facebook sharing? Furthermore, lets consider a scenario where there are 30 or 40 similar pages like PAGE-F all with links out to my primary targets. Would these primary targets gain anything as these 30 or 40 pages gained facebook shares? Repeat above question, replace 'facebook' with 'twitter'. repeat again for 'google+' ?
