Best Social Sharing Platform for B2b sites
-
Guess that title of the question says it all. What is the best social platform for dull b2b sites? The kind of content that you wouldn't want to share with your friends and family.... Not that type of content before anyone gets the wrong idea

Result!

Thanks Mat, you have actually given me a great idea for an article.

I've just watched a stunning video about how to de-rag a pump in 2.5 mins! OK - I'll admit you've got a challenge on your hands.
I'll assume for a moment that a link based piece that focuses on all the innuendo surrounding pump deragging is out of the question. However I can't help think that there is a slightly naughty tumblr to be had here pulling off some meme type images.
The video I just watched seemed to be based entirely on the sales pitch of speed. Is that something that you could do an interesting thing around? Maybe a video of a deragging race? Or one of someone deragging a pump in less time than it takes to boil a kettle (ending with them sitting down for a cup of tea to underline the time saving).
Probably not quite right - but it shows that dull topics don't have to be presented in a dull way.

Thanks Mat. Maybe I was approaching the question the wrong way round. I should make the dull content more interesting rather than trying to promote dull content.
If you're interested Google 'pump de-ragging' this is the kind of $£** I have to deal with.
btw: FollowerWonk is a great tool.

I know it's easier said then done, but is there something you can do to make it interesting ? Think some sort of interesting infographics or something that could make it interesting enough to be shared. That reminds me of another seomoz user, who's active here and also written about it - http://www.seomoz.org/blog/a-small-success-story-inspired-by-seomoz-and-its-contributors

Wow - sounds like a fun project! Are people really going to share anything that dull though? Sounds like the content is the issue not the platform.
I'll assume you mean "niche" rather than "dull". If it is interesting to the target audience then you have a chance. If not then you're stuffed whatever platform you use. So - interesting, but only if you are the right type of geek.
You just need to find where those geeks are hanging out. I tend to find twitter is good for those smaller niche groups, but that is partly because they are easier to find thanks to tools like followerwonk. It is very dependent on the niche though.

When with Google+ bio area backlinks get devalued if we have everybody link to our site
Hello, As you know, Google+ bios, if they have a link in them are dofollow. I'm doing a link building campaign, and we already linked one of our Google+ pages to our home page and top 2 articles. My question is, to get links, can we have family and friends add links in their bios too for a total of 6 links to the home page (6 people) and some links to our articles? Or will Google devalue them because we are family and friends? How many is too many? Thanks.

Social media signals from Facebook comment plugin on your site?
If you are using the Facebook social plugin on your site like ThinkGeek does for comments: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/ed6b/ Are there any positive social signals from people leaving comments that could impact the SEO of the page? I searched the text of some comments in quotations in Google and it appears that the first few comments are indexed but most are not.

Social Media and its importance for organic ranking
Hi Community, maybe this question hasn't to be answered directly, but can be answered with a link. I am sure the answer must be out there on the web... 😉 I have a company, a companies website and a companies facebookpage. Now the question: What kind of user activity on my facebookpage is good for the organic ranking in google? Is it only good, when people click the "like"-Button on my homepage (which gives me a nofollow-backlink from facebook - unfortunatelly in most cases hidden for googles eyes)? Is it useful when I get a "like" directly on my facebookpage? Or is it the best to have a status on facebook that is shared very often? Will Google see the connection between a shared facebook status and my website (of course the website is on the info page of my facebooks site...)? I ask that because I wonder how (for example) a viral picture on facebook shared very often can helb my business. Uuuuh, so, where's my answer on the web? 😉 Thank you!
