The Importance of Social Media For SEO

The Importance of Social Media For SEO | Digital Media & Science | Scoop.it

"SEO and use of Social Media are essential to success. On their own, they’re only a piece of the puzzle, and only doing one may not produce the results you want".

 

SEO, or search engine optimization, is a form of marketing through which a company’s website, or piece of content on a website, reaches a higher ranking on search engines to maximize visibility to consumers thereby creating a higher probability of traffic, which can later translate to sales and/or interaction depending on your business goals.

 

This is accomplished through creation of “do follow” links within a number of different arenas. While there’s more to making a web-based company successful than just good SEO, it is a very important part of getting clicks and page views.

2 sides of the same coin: SEO for inbound and SMO for outbound. Although both have the capability to generate leads. They are better used side by side as compliments. With SEO making the sites searchable and SMO interacting with clients in this ever-evolving digital marketing space.

Reputation and Impact in Academic Careers; the early citation advantage of co-authors with high reputation

Reputation and Impact in Academic Careers; the early citation advantage of co-authors with high reputation | Digital Media & Science | Scoop.it

Abstract:

Reputation is a key social construct in science. However, the relation between this key signaling credential and career growth remains poorly understood. Here we develop an original framework for measuring how citation paths are shaped by two distinct factors - the scientific merit of each individual paper versus the reputation of its authors within the scientific community. To estimate the relative influence of these two factors we perform a longitudinal analysis of publication data for 450 leading scientists from biology, physics, and mathematics. Our panel data approach quantifies the role of social ties, author reputation, and the citation life cycle of individual papers. We uncover statistical regularities in the coevolution of publications and citations, which we use as benchmarks to test and validate a stochastic model for the citation dynamics governing a scientists publication portfolio. We find strong evidence of increasing returns to scale in the growth of both publications and citations, reflecting the amplifying role of social processes. Moreover, our analysis shows that author reputation dominates in the initial phase of a papers citation life cycle. This latter result suggests that papers gain a significant early citation advantage if written by authors already having high reputations in the scientific community. As quantitative measures become increasingly common in the evaluation of scientific careers, our results show that the use of measures that do not account for reputation effects may paradoxically counteract the goal of sustaining talented and diligent young academics.

 

 

The authors: "We believe the basic mechanisms of reputation signaling in social networks are quite general, and so it is likely that reputation  plays a similar role in other recommender systems which pervade diverse online socio-technical systems characterized by generic diffusion and contagion phenomena. Our results on the respective roles of author reputation and

paper impact on citations unravel an important mechanism contributing to the stratification of scientific communities. In particular, they provide a rationale for young scientists being attracted to work in teams led by leaders in the scientific community."

Who and what are the biggest social influencers in the digital space today?

Recently, the editors at MBA in Marketing Degree Guide decided to find out and embarked on a research expedition that uncovered some interesting information.

 

The research began by probing who consumers trust when it comes to their purchasing decisions.

 

54 % of consumers report a greater amount of influence coming from communities of smaller size. So blogs with small but loyal followings can deliver high-percentage results in consumer influence.31% of Internet purchases are influenced by blogs, ranking blogs third in influence behind only retail (56%) and brand sites (34%) in influence.While bloggers and social media influencers are a premier source of influence, most digital marketers devote few resources to incorporating key influencers into their digital efforts.

Scholarship: Beyond the paper; The journal and article are being superseded by algorithms that filter, rate and disseminate scholarship as it happens

Scholarship: Beyond the paper; The journal and article are being superseded by algorithms that filter, rate and disseminate scholarship as it happens | Digital Media & Science | Scoop.it

The author: 

"We are witnessing the transition to yet another scholarly communication system — one that will harness the technology of the Web to vastly improve dissemination. What the journal did for a single, formal product (the article), the Web is doing for the entire breadth of scholarly output. The article was an attempt to freeze and mount some part of the scholarly process for display. The Web opens the workshop windows to disseminate scholarship as it happens, erasing the artificial distinction between process and product. Over the next ten years, the view through these open windows will inform powerful, online filters; these will distil communities' impact judgements algorithmically, replacing the peer-review and journal systems."

Blending Creation and Curation in a Perfectly Balanced Content Diet | Free eBook by Curata

Blending Creation and Curation in a Perfectly Balanced Content Diet | Free eBook by Curata | Digital Media & Science | Scoop.it

In this free ebook by Curata (made up of 33 pages), with foreword by Ann Handley, Chief Content Officer of MarketingProfs and the co-author of "Content Rules", it will show you how to mix original content and curated content to get results.


In this ebook you’ll learn:

- How to re-purpose old content;

- Front-end marketing tactics;

- How to develop short and long form content;

- and how to keep your Content Beast well fed!


Here is a short excerpt as summary that caught my attention:

"6 tips for smart and effective content curation:

1) Be strategic about your topic selection. Do the legwork to determine audience needs. Think about the voice you want for your brand. Build your content around that.
2) Vary your sources. Exposure to a broad variety of voices, ideas, and information is one of the key values of a strong curation strategy.

3) Be selective. Curation is not about sharing as much as you can. It’s about sharing the best of the best – acting as a filter for your audience.

4) Organize based on audience needs. Make sure that you present your curated content using categorization and hierarchy that’s as useful to your audience as it is to you.

5) Adhere to ethical best practices. Always attribute your original sources and only publish abstracts and excerpts.

6) Add value. Help your audience get the most out of your curated content by providing insights, opinions, and context."


Very informative.

Some reports state that social indicators (shares, retweets, +1’s) are already more important than incoming links. 

 

This isn’t exactly news, as we’ve seen Google systematically destroy search manipulators for the past couple of years. While it isn’t exactly headline material, it does show that the future of search is a blend between traditional organic search and social media.

Social Dominance & New SEO
I wrote Storytelling is the New SEO (http://www.slideshare.net/martinmartysmith/storytelling-new-seo ) because we play for shares. If we play for shares some content, the content capable of generating shares, is more important than other content.


This is especially true in the case of "social search" or Facebook's new "graph search" that moves technical SEO to the backseat as social search drives the car. Because when you are in a car looking for pizza you don't care about technical SEO. You care about what tastes good :). 

If that is the case, then the WAY we generate content needs to change. We need to CURATE more since our curation sends the "we are listening and care about someone's take other than our own" signal and because we can test with curation and then confirm with creation.

Storytelling is the new SEO has almost 7,000 views so it struck a nerve. The nerve it struck is our attempts at understanding the new SEO, the more social SEO the SEO dominated by social signals.
