How Do Social Signals Help Your Online Marketing?

I my opinion social signals have both a direct and indirect impact on organic search ranking. Direct impact comes from:.

  • Number of individuals that like your brand on Facebook.
  • Facebook shares.
  • Twitter followers.
  • Number of tweets discussing your company name or including a link to your website.
  • Number of people who “have you in their circles” (Google+).

Indirect impact comes from:.

  • Increased inbound links
  • Increased  positive feedback (in Google Local listing) due to satisfied consumers.
  • Decreased bounce rate, greater time on site, and more repeat (returning)visitors to your website.
