Can Twitter really help your Google Rankings??
-
Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me if Twitter really does help with your Goolge rankings?
If I go to the trouble of setting up a Twitter account for my business will it really help with me getting higher rankings?
If so is it a case of me just posting tweets all the time and links to my website?
Any help or guidance be grateful guys
Thanks
Gareth

I'd highly recommend not using Twitter solely for higher rankings. Twitter helps you with brand management, customer service, community management, etc. If you're only using Twitter to try to game Google, you're probably going about it the wrong way. I'd focus on managing your Twitter account in a way that will benefit you as part of your overall marketing strategy.

google +, facebook shares, and then twitter in that order help your rankings. Also it seems they can lose strength over time if no new shares are added to that page.

Twitter, Facebook and any other social media site will help you in Google terms but few things here:
first you don't want to post tweets all day and link to your site, that's a big no. keep it natural try to have your customers follow you and give them relevant information of your industry.
sure sometimes you can run deals (i am not sure what you sale or service) and tweet about that , just make sure your site and twitter account linking one to the other.
do the same with Facebook and few others and yea it will help in the long run and not only to your ranking as don't forget ranking its not the all game customers are and if you communicate true social media it will help you in the long run for sure.
hope that help

How do I quickly check which keywords Google index YouTube videos for on first page?
I'd like to create YouTube videos since they can be a good way to rank for certain keywords. So I'd like to find a way to QUICKLY know which of the thousands of keywords I have are most likely to result in a first page result for my video. Is there a tool or technique you can recommend for quickly identifying the keywords I should target?

Google+, Link from My Site to Author's Google+ Page or to Company Google+
Recently I verified authorship for my Website. So the image from my personal Google+ account appears in search results. My website has a Google+ social media button. Should the link point to my corporate Google+ account or to my personal Google+ account? What is more credible from Google's point of view? What are best practices for this issue? Look forward to hearing from the MOZ community. THANKS!!!

Google+. Good for all businesses?
Hi guys, My question/discussion is regarding Google+ and whether or not I should advocate creating an account for one of the websites I work in-house for. This particular website focuses on unlock codes for mobile phones and isn't a service that consumers would really want to connect with - which is what Google+ appears to be a vehicle for. It is a one off purchase website, and not something people will use regularly. On the face of it Google+ offers very little for a company that operates in this fashion and makes most sense for B2B businesses. I feel that by potentially creating a Google+ presence we are in fact attempting to manipulate the search rankings because it isn't a networking site that makes sense for our business and there is actually very little real reason for us to get involved with it. I don't think Google would penalise any business for getting involved in their product, but we would only be using it to benefit our ranking position. Surely that is against everything Google themselves stand for? Also, what real benefits have you guys got out of using Google+? If I am to create a presence there, this is the ammo I'll need to use to convince my manager with. Thanks a lot.

Google Games
Following a thread here thought I'd login to G+ only to notice the new Google games tab, lol you've gotta give em A+ for trying ...... Think Google should try to be a little more original, wondered what everyone else thought of this new addition? Lee
