Social media and google
-
Do you need exact url brand match to get the benefits of social media noise in the google organic rankings?
EG:
my url extensions have my brnad but other words in, if i get noise does my website stil benefit in the rankings because it has the url in the profile? or do i need exact match in the url?

I see to answer your question, no this will not influence your targeted keywords or help build your site authority.

I think the issue is i know you get value in organic rankings for social noise.
I was just wondering to get it, do you need all profiles to have exact match url exenstion so:

This helps with reputation management. For example if someone types your brand name into Google and all of your social media accounts are labeled _**twitter.com/brandname facebook.com/brandname etc... **_Then it will help these social networks show up, for your brandname within the SERP.
As far as correlation between a website and an active Twitter/Facebook/etc... account, I don't believe one has a direct impact on another. However, if you have social buttons on your site/content such as: "Like" us on Facebook "Tweet" this article and "+1" or "Follow us". That will have a strong impact on your site, especially when the links continue to get shared amongst social networks.

Hi Paul,
Its not necessary but its look good if it so. If you are not getting exact brand name its ok. Twitter and Facebook are about how much you are engaged in it. How your Twitter follower and facebook fans respond to your post. How many share you receives from your twitter tweets and how many likes, shares in facebook post.

Article previews on social media not showing
Hi there, hoping for some help. I have a hunch but I can't be sure. Whenever I go to publish a link on social media, I no longer see previews with the featured image or relevant meta. We have changed servers lately so I think maybe somethign has gone wrong with OpenGraph? Happens on Facebook and LinkedIn.

How about the new Google Plus cover images?
I logged into several accounts this morning and have noticed Google Plus has changed their cover images/layout... again! When I edit the cover image, it only allows me to pick the old ratios. What do you think? Here to stay? Was there an announcement or anything about this?

Social Signals, do they help? Looking for a solid Yes or No.
Hi, I've read so much lately about social signals and got basically 3 completely different responses. 1. Yes they are going to over take normal link building in 2013 so get on it. 2. Yeah they do help with rankings but not massively, don't focus to much on it. 3. Na they don't help, you need to gain 1000's of signals and even then it will be a short SERP increase and then back down you go. So... What im looking for now is a straight up Yes or No, should you be on social signals now? Should time spent on gaining social signals be increased? If your doing 10% of your time on social should this percent now shift to a larger percentage? Cheers
