Value in content from website being shared across social media?
-
I asked this question a couple of days ago. Would be great if anyone has some good insight:
I write content on my site, which I immediately share across Twitter, FB and Google+. Will Google view me as active on social media with this onsite content I distribute across social media sites (basically creating duplicate info across social media, which already is on my site) or will I be seen as less active on social media since I do not write original content on the social media sites, but rather use content from my site and distribute across social media.

Active on social media is interaction to me so if the content you distribute on social media sites creates buzz and people started interaction with you... You are active! It’s simple is that!
Will Google find it active or not is a different debate... may be Google+ interaction will be considered as more important as compare to others but this is not conform till yet!

_Yeah it is perfectly fine sharing great content in social channel. And there is no as such need to rewrite them as to make them appear unique. Search Engines are well aware of this and it is perfectly natural. And it will not be considered as active unless the post starts getting Likes, Shares, Tweets, Retweets, Google Pluses from other members. _

As far as I know, there is no penalty from Google o share the content time n again on social media. Also, if you share your content on social media, its a good thing as its seen as sending good overall social signals to Google though it is NOT a ranking factor. Many people tweet the same stuff again n again to get more followers.

If your goal is to "get a message out" then put your content up anywhere that you can.
If your goal is to make money from a website then you need a different plan. Not saying what that plan should be because I don't know your goals.

So I am my coworker have a differing opinion on social networking sites.
One of us says to join one or two, Linkedin being one of them and just work those. The other says to build profiles on multiple pages - everything from Merchant Circle to fastpitch , essentially any and all, and not worry about activity level, just get the link. What are your thoughts? Which approve will result in more effective optimization for clients?

Social Media For Doctors Office Help!
I have a client that I am doing web-work for...I recommended for him to claim his Facebook Place page as well as create a twitter account. He's a little skeptical and doesn't think that a doctors office needs a Facebook and twitter page. I strongly disagree with him and would like to show him some facts. Has anyone ever done social media for a doctors office before or know where I can get some good information? Thanks in advance!

Using a Social Media Infrastructure
I just wanted to share a technique I have had a great deal of success with called a Social Media Infrastructure. It has really increased the amount of followers on all of the social media sites I have been using. The first link explains a Social Media Infrastructure and the second link is somebody using the social media infrastructure whom has implemented the technique much better. http://kylelacy.com/social-media-seo-social-media-infrastructure/ http://brianwong.com/blog/how-to-automate-your-blog-workflow-and-increase-your-search-engine-ranking/ It does take some time to get all set up correctly, but it has increased my followers a ton. I am not going to claim that it gives you all the links and as much SEO benefit as they claim, but it does give your social media some muscle.
