Always keep this in mind ...
If you follow the rules and do things the right way, as they should be done you will be better off in the long run. As Google tightens up its rules and makes changes ... each time they roll out an update YOUR website should improve in rankings.
If you want to skip the hard work, take the easy route, buy your way in or resort to jumping the line with black hat tactics ... then please don't act surprised when these updates hurt your rankings or get you banned all together. Remember the old saying, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is ! Adding a bunch of likes from people who are not your raving fans can actually do more harm then good. Lets take an example of 2 websites looking to grow their social media.
1. Client #1 decides to take the high road and put the time in every day or a few days a week to engage on social media. Posting content, liking other pages, getting followers and organically doing the right thing to attract true fans of their work or products. After 1 year this company has only 500 followers. But these are real followers who love the brand, like and share the posts and buy from the company. The social media accounts have a high engagement rate from the fans. This sends great signals to search engines to improve rankings.
2. Client #2 decides to take the easy road and pays some social media promo companies to get them 5000 fans after 1 year. These are not raving fans, they are most likely fakes and made up accounts not going to engage with your posts or comments. These people were encouraged to like your page for other reasons then true love of your brand or products. These social media accounts will def. have a very low or no engagement rate from the so called fans. This low engagement with so many fans will be seen as a poor signal and possible hurt and def. not help rankings.
At the end of the year the account with 10 times less fans, but real fans will have more engagement metrics and make more profits than the business with all the fake fans. The business with the made up fans will have engagement metrics that are very poor in comparison. If search engines put a ranking signal on social media engagement ( which we think they do more than we realize ) The company with a large fan base and no engagement will be worse off than the company with less fans and more engagement.
Take your time and do it the right way, you and your clients will be better off in the long run. Always take the high road - the road less traveled leads to a richer reward in life ! In all aspects of your life and work, including search engines !
Hope that helps,
Joe

Here's a discussion on it in the context of YouTube's TOS: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/youtube/qN8MrLI4mHM. I'd consider it a blackhat social tactic, and one to avoid for the long term health of a business.

Is it possible to get demographic data for a certain section of the website and only that area and not the whole site? Tools? Analytics? Suggestion.
I have a /blog/ section of the site that we would like to have separate demographic data for. But I am unable to figure out the way to create it in a custom report. Is there steps I need to include?

Best Practices for apps.facebook.com pages
A client of ours has experienced a large drop in traffic (per GA) from apps.facebook.com referral source in the last 30 days. After a lot of searching, its apparent that there is not a lot of chatter on this topic. So this is a twofold topic..... 1. has anyone observed a drop in apps.facebook.com referrals lately as well? 2. does anyone have any best practices learning on optimizing these pages? Facebook guidance and content in general on the topic is virtually not existent. Google is still clearly indexing the url structure so its visible in search at least. https://www.google.com/#hl=en&sclient=psy-ab&q=%22apps.facebook.com

How does Social Media really Impact SEO?
It's become a common refrain that social media is critical to SEO. Taking this literally, I have been examining the impact of social media on specific pages and topical areas within my site. Specifically, I am looking at pages and content areas that we promote and link to via social media and I am seeing zero correlation to SEO success. Social media is not impacting my rankings at all. And we have a sizable social footprint. Has anyone else done this type of analysis and seen different results?

Widgets like Facebook Like and AddThis - Any Negative SEO?
I could go widget crazy with my website, there are so many cool buttons and linking this and likes and etc. There's one that is used a lot, called "Addthis" that adds a series of small icons to share a page via facebook, twitter, etc. The javascript looks innocent enough, but there's a link, and who knows what google makes of it. Then there are the dozen or so Facebook widgets - are they safe to use without negative SEO consequences? Does anyone know of any other pitfalls with using the numerous addons offered free to enhance your site? Thanks for any wisdom out there! Jean
