B2B social share
-
Hello,
Social sharing is a positive signal for SEO.Google told on its blog, Googlebot take car of more than 200 social websites.
Sometime Twitter and Facebook aren't good marketing places because business isn't B2C but B2B. So customers doesn't use them for job, but they use Linkedin, Viadeo, Xing, and maybe some other.
I can't be present onto all social website, I've to choose the most relevant.
I already know which are better for branding and CRM. But for SEO, which is better for you, and why ?Thanks

Hi Tommy,
In fact, I'm in a B2B context, Facebook, Twitter and Google+ aren't enough used by my customers in their B2B life.
In their B2B life, they uses social websites like LinkedIn or Viadeo. My SEO question is more for them.
Thanks

Hi Max!
Facebook still dominates the market and it gives good ranking signals as well.
I would recommend you to use Facebook as the primary network, you will reach the most people with this channel. Then as a complement I would recommend you to start using Google+. I´ve seen a lot of discussions about Google+ and I think that it´s going to be a very important ranking factor (it is already).
Google Google = true
Then we have Twitter, an easy way to create buzz around the subject, customer or whatever you want. - It all creates positive signals to Google, you´re a hot subject in social media -> ranking signals.
Good luck!

Recommended Social Media Scheduling platforms
I am currently using BufferApp to schedule my social media posts. My scheduling gets messed up at least once per month, where I lose posts or days are skipped, etc. without any changes (and even when I can see the expected schedule). I have used Hootesuite in the past and I like it, but I prefer Buffer when it works. Is there something else that works as good as Buffer used to? Thank you.

International Social Media Pages
If your going to target multiple countries but who have same language (such as US & UK) which of the main social media accounts should you set up a country specific version for ? I know some like Google+ allow for sub-pages/listings for different localities/outlets etc so I presume you only need the one G+ company page (but pls confirm if you agree or not ?). I keep hearing peeps say set up country specific Twitter and FaceBook pages, do you agree ? and what about other main social sites like Pinterest & LinkedIn etc ? Thanks Dan

How to Push Free Offer for Links, Likes and Shares.
I have been working with a UK based printing company for a while now. We have had some good success, ranking well for most of our target phrases. One thing we do is to offer select Graphic Designers and Illustrators free business cards. Last year we approached a load of Designers and Illustrators (sourced via followerwonk) and printed cards for them, but we have run out of suitable candidates. One particular problem is that if the designers don’t need cards at that moment in time, the offer is forgotten about. Any Ideas how we can give the offer a lift? Let me know your thoughts. Justin

Is it possible to modify the default social sources in Google Analytics?
In the newest Google Analytics there's a section called 'Social' which tracks traffic from FB, Twitter and other social sites. For some reason it doesn't include Instagram (which is the one that matters to me, though I'm sure there are many others that it doesn't include either.) Is there a way to modify that and add Instagram as a social source?

Monitor Social Traffic
SocialAppsHQ has revised their pricing plans. https://www.socialappshq.com/home/pricing?utm_medium=email&utm_source=pricechange We have been using both their Apps and Social Monitoring. The Apps has worked pretty well for us and the revised pricing will actually be cheaper for us, so I'll likely continue with that feature. As for the Social Monitoring, perhaps I'm not using it effectively, but I get notice of social traffic too late to be really useful. To help generate viral lift in Twitter, for example, I need to be notified within an hour or so that someone has mentioned our product. If I am notified eight hours after the original tweet, then many on the east coast are already asleep and I can't retweet effectively until the next day, and it looses impact when the discussion is cold. Also, the revised pricing makes this feature much more expensive for us. What services can you recommend that will give us rapid notification of search phrases on FB and Twitter? Best,

Quick Fire Social Academy
Has anyone heard of Quick Fire Social Academy?? (http://quickfiresocial.com) My boss just signed up for it and wants me to check it out. This the claim their website makes: "In 5 Minutes A Week Or Less You Can Setup A Full Social Media Campaign That's Full Of Red Hot Viral Content !" I went to their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/QuickFireSocial. They only have 7 likes and the page was just created in January of this year, AND I see no Red Hot content on their site. So, I have a few concerns. Is anybody using them? How are the results?

Is there a way on OSE or any other site to find the 50 most socially shared URLs on a given domain?
I'd love to see which URLs on a specific domain get socially shared the most. I know I can use OSE to say figure out exactly how much social sharing has happened on let's say this URL:
Social Media | | Almonds
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama But what if I want to figure out the top 50 most shared URLs across all of wikipedia.org. Is that possible on OSE or anywhere else? If not, do you have some ideas on how something similar could be achieved?0
