What is a good amount of social shares per week / day?
-
As the title says. What is your idea of a good amount of social shares to be given per day or week or month for a website?
-
In my experience, a baseline number of shares is completely reliant on the content being shared. The type of content is also indicative of the network it will be shared on. For example: We get more shares from Linkedin when we produce "professional" content. We get more Facebook shares when we share time wasting content.
Sorry I could not be more specific. I would be happy to help if you are more specific about your brand/ target market.

Sounds like you're going to need to get a new software for your website. There is no minimum or maximum amount for Facebook likes. This is all going to depend upon your competition which we don't know. Use open site Explorer to see what the competition has. It may take a long time to rack up shares.

Thanks Francisco. I have tried that but have unfortunately had to give up because my WYSIWYG website making program, for whatever reason, can't accommodate, so have decided to forfeit (it seems to have problems with the widgets that are graphically like PNG files). It can manage widgets that are contained within a box so I'm limited to the little addthis horizontal bar. My site and pages from it gets 5 to 7 social shares a day on places like FB, G+ and Pinterest, is this good?

Try to put the FB Like button on your conversion page and tell people to click the like button so the Like goes to the home page. Addthis will not work for this so you will need to make a button here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/

I don't really do much on my FaceBook business page. Yes social shares. Like when someone goes through the "addthis" widget on your site and shares your website / webpage. I'm sure no amount is too little!

Are you talking about sharing on your facebook wall? I would say 20% pimping your product and 80% relevant info.
If you are talking about getting Facebook URL likes, get as many as you can. There is no amount that's too little.

Will Huge bounce rate from social media visits affect SEO or website Ranking according to Google algorithm factors?
We have one website and have posted our blog post url in the social media sites and got almost 5k visits in 3 days’ time, with 11sec avg time on site, zero conversions and with 97% bounce rate. This in turn reduced the total conversion rate for the same month to less than 0.5%. According to google algorithm, these are factors affecting website ranking. Can anyone guide me whether which visits from social media affect our website in any case based on these Analytics factors? Please help me out on the same! Note: Blog post topic was related to latest technology update and the landing page also based in the respective topic as well.

Manual submission vs automated submission to social bookmarking sites for blog posts
Howdy Mozzers! Say we're creating great content on our blog and would like this content to be seen and shared by as many people possible. Should we submit our blog posts manually to social book marking sites or use an automated service like Only Wire? The advantage of using automation is obvious, saves time on submission. Are there disadvantages? Is google bot going to raise an eyebrow and give us a dirty look? Cheers! MozAddict

How to best promote this content via social media to gain backlinks
I have created this content http://www.musicliveuk.com/live-music/the-worst-function-bands-and-wedding-bands-ever in order to promote it via social media. Ideally I want it to be shared across the web in order to gain backlinks. My question is how can I best do this? I know I can post it on twitter, facebook, google plus etc... but is that it? I'm new to social media and don't really understand how to use it to good effect. By posting it on social networking sites am I risking people copying the content and duplicate content penalties? Any help would be much appreciated!

Is facebook and twitter always a good idea to promote a website and improve Google rankings?
I'm attempting to promote a fresh seafood market / restaurant here on the Sunshine Coast, Australia. I have not found a lot of examples of people using Twitter and Facebook to promote this type of business here. Is it hard to justify the time for return here? One benefit I thought for twitter is we could have tweets displayed on site giving us some dynamic content which would hopefully keep Google spider coming back more regularly is this correct? Is there any link building advantage to using these social media sites?
