Social Trending
-
Hey,
Just wondering what tools people recommend for finding out trending content on social media?
Thanks

I would recommend Klout. It has a list of new and hot posts and content.

Hi Radi!
Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any tools that do what you're looking for, but you could always check out the trending section that appears on the right side of your Facebook newsfeed. Not sure if that's too obvious, but I thought I'd throw it out there just in case.

Hi Radi
No I don't believe any of the above tools do what you are looking for, not sure if there is anything that will do exactly what you want anymore, there used to be many tools that did this like 'Its Trending' but most of these are no longer available.
Maybe some of the Social Monitoring/Listening Tools will do what you need, hope you find a solution and would be interested to know if you do.

To make that a little clearer, we've been thinking about tools that show which posts within Facebook are doing well. Videos with most views in a particular niche for example. None of the mentioned tools do that do they?

There are quite a few tool out there that can assist with finding trending content but a few that we have used in the past or still use are:
Buzz Feed: Can be a bit annoying at times but the editorial staff do try and stay on top of trending news.
BuzzSumo: Is another good one especially for looking at what content has done well in the past year.
Google Trends: Which we find is invaluable for tracking trends and content across the internet and too be fair is an undervalued and underrated tool.
You might also want to take a look at such things as Reddit.
Hope this helps and good luck with your search.

Google Analytics Social Settings
Hi, I'm a bit confused about the actual purpose of the social settings in Admin > Property > Social Settings. I've read some blogs saying it just helps analyse traffic that has arrived from your social media pages. Then I've found other sources saying you should add your own domain in there so you can track likes and shares sent from your website to social media platforms. What do I actually need to put in there and how does it help my data? Thanks!

Social Media Causing Duplicate Content
Recently, I spent some time in the SEO MOZ Crawl Diagnostics, and found that I have 40 pages that are being listed as “duplicate content.” These are original blog posts, but I made the mistake of sharing on social media immediately after publishing each post. I recently found out that if you post on a blog and on social on the same day, Google indexes the social first, and then up to 2 weeks later indexes the actual blog post. When it does, it stamps the blog post as duplicate and the social media posting as the original. Any ideas on how I can rectify this? Any code I can put in each blog post to let Google know they’re the original? I’ve begun publicizing my blogs on social 14 days after I actually publish them to alleviate the issue going forward, but I’d like my 40 other blog posts to get the authority they deserve.

How To Remove Fake Social Media Likes
Hi there Mozzers, Unfortunately I used a black hat seo company for my website at http://greatedmontonhomes.ca in the past. Over the last while I've been able to clean up quite a few of the bad links going to the site, but the company also engaged in buying fake Facebook likes and Tweets. Is there any way to clean these up? Guy

Do having social sharing icons such as Twitter and Pinterest slow down site speed?
We are debating a redesign of a travel site and wondering whether having social sharing buttons including Pinterest and Facebook above each image would slow down site speed and therefore have a negative impact on our rankings. We are deciding between having the icons above each image or just in the side bar of all pages. Many thanks, Penny

Duplicating content on more than one social network
I am just getting in to social media for my company and i can find an answer to my questions. Different people give a different answer. Question: i have written a post and uploaded it to our Google+ page. If i upload the same post / content to our Facebook page, will this fall foul of the 'duplicate content' rule with Penguin? Or does that rule only relate to websites? Any Guru's out there with an answer? Much appreciated. Si

Incentivisation Strategies for Social Sharing of Product Pages
Hey, What are some great tips for gaining social shares on ecommerce product or category pages? I understand great images and video will go along way, but it's difficult on a large scale ecommerce store. Receiving an offer for sharing something is great - I honestly cant think of a way to track this strategy in a large scale manner. I can send an email after a purchase making an offer to go back to the page to share, but how would I track this? Thanks.
