If you post on two Twitter accounts could be rated as duplicate content
-
I have a personal Twitter account which is building up, but I also have a Twitter account for my holiday letting agency and until now I’ve always separated the subject of the tweets and links to my websites but I’m using Buffer which automates your tweets in advance and so I included some of the links to my business holiday letting agency articles on my personal account and people seem to like them and have shared them, but is there any risks to doing that regarding duplicate type of content?
At the end of the day some the people on my personal Twitter will be interested in my agency tweets about holiday accommodation, I just want to do anything which could be termed spam.

Hi Oleg
With the apparent reason emphasis on social shares likes and links been possibly a more accurate we are determining for the search engines whether content is popular and focusing on this we already have lots of content on the websites. I have initially posted introduction link to each post on our website copy and pasted into to our twitter, FB.and GP accounts with the same link, but the decided that in short bursts I will do unique introductions to the links. Looking at my competition which is above me in the search engine results they tend to be much larger companies and are not focusing very much on social media so will see if the results pay any dividends
all the best AlanI'll give you an update for your interest in the future

Hi Moosa
Thank you very much I thought that might be the case it's not like a permanent article on your website or blog, but I'm actually going to post links to our website with unique introductions which doesn't take long when you do it in small bursts and I'm sure it makes it more interesting especially when you're using an automated service like buffer. Thanks for the info I appreciate Alan

The KISS rule here is, “When on twitter, you don’t really have to care about duplicate content.” Even if every tweet of two accounts is identical there is no problem as it won’t hurt your website in any way!!

You are fine - no need to worry about duplicate content.
Only way it would be is if EVERYTHING is identical.. which it doesn't sound like it is.

How can you tell if a competitors' FB post was boosted?
Does anyone know how to identify if a FB post was boosted or not? Does FB or a third party software have that capability? Thanks, Ruben

Twitter cards - one account, various domains?
Hi guys, I have a number of events run by the same company, all with their own websites. For a number of reasons, these individual events don't have their own social channels. Instead, the company's main social channels are used to promote the events wherever possible. I want to implement twitter card markup into each of the sites and associate the markup with the company's main twitter account. Does anyone know whether it's possible to get twitter cards approved for one account across multiple domains? I'd hate to apply for one site using the account, only to find out I can't apply for others! So before I venture into the unknown, was hoping someone could shed some light on this. Cheers 🙂

Facebook Page Banned and Removed Due to Negative Comments Against A Single Post - How to Recover?
Hello. I'm working with a very reputable company - and their Facebook page has completely disappeared. Yesterday, a random visitor flagged a couple posts as abusive, and today the page is gone. Some sort of negative social tactic. Has anyone experienced this and is there a way to recover? Is there a way to have Facebook reinstate the page? Thanks for any guidance you can provide!

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.

How to Analyze Twitter Followers
I'm working on an infographic and I need a way to analyse the followers of about 25 to 50 industry twitter accounts to figure what type of people their followers are. twittersheep.com used to do exactly this, look at the profile description area of twitter and produce a tag cloud of a given twitter account's followers based on terms from their profile fields. But they are no longer online. Anyone know of another service that does this ? Or can think of another way to get this data.

I just discovered something about Addthis shares, Twitter, and rel-canonical.
Let's say I have a page on my site with the url www.mydomain.com/page1.php?id=234. Let's say it can be accessed by the url www.mydomain.com/page-this-is-a-keyword-rich-url And let's say that the second example is what I have set as my rel-canonical. I wondered what would happen when people submitted the non-canonical url to twitter. We know that Twitter shares count for something in SEO. I didn't want things to go to waste if people were landing on my short urls and sharing them on Twitter. Well, tonight, I shared one of my own urls on Twitter. I was accidentally on the short one (not the canonical), but when I shared it via addthis the long one was shared. So, Addthis must read the canonical and use this to share. Very cool. At least to me. I may possibly be the only person on the planet that understands what I just wrote, but this is a neat discovery for me.
