Facebook pages: useful for SEO?

Tuesday, April 24th, 2012

One of the issues with using social media for Search Engine Optimisation is that it’s too easy to get excited. Site owners can become engaged in activities that aren’t particularly useful, wasting time resources. The social media offers an enormous range of opportunities but not all of them are helpful. Facebook is a prime example.

A lot of SEO experts swear by Facebook for SEO. The social site, which attracts users from all sorts of backgrounds, has a reach that makes marketers salivate. However, it can be difficult to reach your target audience in Facebook. One of the more useful tools within Facebook is the Facebook Page. Even with these, though, it’s very easy to miss your target.

What you need on your Facebook Page is:

* Creative, interesting, entertaining content – something that users will stop and read. Facebook is often used for entertainment so save complex content for your website. Talk to us, at SEO Consult Australia, about the right tone for Facebook.
* Communication that goes both ways – a campaign on Facebook, as with most social media, only works if interaction is a major component. Your page should encourage users to engage in conversation with your business.
* Frequent changes – another thing to remember about Facebook is that things change all the time. Users log in several times a day so to catch their attention, you need to update frequently.

As with most social media pages, the best way to catch attention is to get creative. The best path to a popular Facebook Page is to get creative.

How to link build organically

Tuesday, February 28th, 2012

Imagine a world where you have all the contacts you need to link build. You’ve got the ear of Rupert Murdoch. You know someone who has the inside track with Google. You’ve got educational links coming out of your ears. Isn’t it wonderful? Now you don’t have to worry about organic link building.

Unfortunately, not many site owners are so blessed. If you don’t have a handful of internet A-list contacts, you’re going to have to figure out how to link build the old-fashioned way. Some site owners dive straight into paid linking. When you want a link profile that will support your site in the long term, though, you need to go organic.

1. Organic link building requires content

The first lesson to learn about organic link building on today’s net is that you can’t do it without good content. This applies for link building between sites, and more complex link building campaigns that involve the social media. Allow for this content in your search engine optimisation plan. You can talk to us at SEO Consult Australia about this type of content.

2. Organic link building on today’s net requires promotion

The second, and just as important, lesson to absorb is that your link building will go nowhere without promotion. To attract organic links, you need to do more than stick some content on a web page. You also need to promote that content in your social circles.

3. Organic link building requires encouragement

Finally, you need to alert people you want links. Simple, yes, but effective.
