Is Pinterest's Embed a Pin good for SEO?
-
I was curious if by having Pinterest embed pins on my site will add SEO value...
This would be used mainly on product pages for alternative images, closeup detail, any type of image to answer a customers question.
I would accompany the pin with more text as another way of adding content to the page.
Example on my site:
Wicker Sofa product page with Pinterest Embed live.
Also attached the screenshot of the code that is used by Pinterest pin embed widget.
Hoping that extra unique content + social activity repins or follows, would help my store's SEO.
Thank you for your answers in advance...

Not especially for link authority as they will be "nofollow" attributed links. I would recommend doing it from a social link traffic perspective as any specific SEO benefit would be negligible, traffic is traffic though

Facebook Name Change and Effect on SEO
Hey Mozzers! Trying this one again as my timing was probably pretty bad with Easter. Working with a company who has about 20K followers on Facebook and about 500 backlinks to their current facebook page. They want to change the name of the page to better reflect the business. I need to advise on this but I'm not sure of and how it will effect them. Any one had any experience in this area?

Why can't anyone check in on my Facebook Page?
Once upon a time, we were able to check in at our office on Facebook. Â Then, one day, we just...couldn't. I didn't (at least intentionally) change any settings on the page. Â I can't seem to even find a setting for this. Â What happened, and how do I fix it? Thank you so much in advance. (Edited to include the Facebook URL)Â https://www.facebook.com/LegacyTravel

How relevant is social bookmarking for SEO today?
I've been doing SEO for a little over 4 years. I've never used sites like Digg, Stumbleupon, Reddit, etc. either personally or on behalf of my clients. This past week I had a discussion with another SEO who asked what I'm doing for my clients with regard to social bookmarking. I responded that I'm really not doing anything and they were shocked. I took a pretty good verbal beating over it. She was borderline offended. I have always been able to deliver solid results for my clients without any type of social bookmarking, so I struggle to see the need, but am surprised at how shocked this other SEO was that I don't do it. How beneficial is it and am I really missing out?

Why isn't my Facebook page showing up in search results?
When I search directly for imageworks creative facebook page on Google, I get many results - some of which are not mine and some of which are listings from other citation sites like Manta. I did a site: search and I do see that the page is indexed by Google, but it's pretty important that we get a better ranking than we currently have! This is the Facebook url: https://www.facebook.com/ImageWorksCreative As part of our rebranding, we did have the URL changed from /imageworksstudio, but that was well over a month ago. I feel as though Google should have caught up by now. Any thoughts on how we can get our FB profile onto the front page?

Where to find good SEO freelancers?
Can anyone recommend any good SEO freelancers for on-site and off-site SEO work on a monthly basis? On sites like elance, freelancer, etc. it's basicly impossible to find any good services due to so many bad "companies" Â offering all the same thing.

Myth or Fact: Social Media Dashboards Bad for SEO?
I want to start using HootSuite to pre-schedule Facebook/Twitter updates, but am plagued by nagging concerns because I have heard  that  HootSuite may impact SEO in a negative way. Is this truth or bull? If it i true, how so, specifically?  And can anything be done to mitigate the negative SEO factors? Also, does anyone prefer another dashboard over HootSuite? Thanks in advance for your inputs!
