Social
Media Optimization
is a Significant Element Within Your SEO Campaign
The social
media optimization
is a significant ingredient within your SEO
campaign. This is the most cost effective way to advertise your
services or
product. The only cost associated with this is the energy that is used
to power
your computer to make the postings.
If this is farmed out, then there
is the additional cost of
paying a virtual assistant (VA) to do the social postings, but this is
only
between $0.70 and $3 for 25 postings of the same post on different
social
posting sites.
There are over
78 social posting sites that allow users to post or bookmark an article
and
link for free. Many of these sites also allow tags to be placed in with
these
postings. This makes it easy for anyone researching a subject to find
what they
are looking for.
Most people are
aware of many of these sites like Google Bookmarks, Digg, Delicious,
Stumbleupon,
and Twitter, but there are also lesser known sites like Wirefan,
Indianpad,
Backflip, and Linkagogo that are also becoming just as popular. There
are a few
that only allow posting by members and membership is restricted to
those that
are invited. These are ma.gnolia.com and blogmarks.net.
There are some
sites that are meant for, but not limited to, specific topics to be
posted. Connotea.org
is a site that has reference materials for clinicians and scientists
but
posting links of categories other than science-related can also be
posted.
There are some
sites, though, that will only allow a single posting per day. Anything
more
than that will get the account permanently disabled. But there is
always a way
around that. Some VAs will create multiple accounts for those types of
sites or
some would use different ISPs to be able to do multiple postings per
day on
those types of sites. The only downside to using multiple ISPs will be
several
cups of coffee from several different internet cafes. For most VAs who
do not
have multiple ISPs in their place of operation, that is not
economically viable
with the pay they get.
If English is
not your preferred language then a site like Bibsonomy.org offers
German as an
alternative.
The most unique
one is Corank.com. This site lets users own their personal blog site
that is
linked to the site’s main page. This way all of your postings can be
found in
one place for easy access for anyone looking to follow your recent
postings.
With so much
diversity and variations, there are endless possibilities with the
social
posting media network. The best part is that with postings of the same
article
on many different website, the article will get ranked on Google and
other
search engine sites at multiple places. This increases the odds of your
article
being seen by more people. With the increased exposure comes increased
traffic to
your site and a greater chance at profit.
This is the most
significant advantage of social posting and media optimization. With
each
successful social posting there are RSS feeds and links back to your
site.
Search engines love backlinks and this is the most cost effective way
to get
these links.
This is the
technical cyber version of the old advertising that was called word of
mouth. Only
now it is advertising through specific keywords or cyber-flyers, if you
will. With
multiple postings, many more people will see your site and your
product. The
better it is liked, the more people will talk about it. This expands
your
exposure to the worldwide market in the most efficient means possible.
Social
media optimization
is a significant ingredient within your SEO campaign;
just remember your competition is also doing this. It’s like followers
on
Twitter, the more that hit on it, the better your ranking will be.
