SEO social media and a little about Twitter

Thanks again for checking out my SEO blog posts! It has been a while since I made my last one, sorry life kind of took over for a while!
Well, what is new today or since the last time I made a post, in a nutshell, not much I don’t think or at least maybe things SEO wise are still heading in that more social direction. What I mean by that is that SEO through social media still to me seems to be the future of things. I think I may have wrote this at some other point in the past however if I did, to reiterate the point. In the past and still now,people out there attach heaps of importance to back links and indeed it is true you certainly need them I just think it is more going in the direction of where these back links originate from. Traditionally and it sounds funny saying that:)) backlinks were to google a vote for your site and still are however let us say that the back link strategy has been abused over time and now there are some very dubious networks that could seem kosher but would do your site no advantage at all.Think dodgy article networks or article syndication with dodgy link velocity on your part. So of course if you have links now coming from social media sites such as Facebook Twitter and Google+ and these are legitimate links with people actually talking about your product or service then then it is a no brainier these are real votes and votes done by a real human at that!
A slight problem may have occurred though, think about it and it should not be too hard to get your head around. Of course, people out there are starting to spam the hell out of social networks with useless comments that offer no value to anyone, such links are just intended to give a site a push and not to engage real people who are using social media.
Well maybe just maybe that will be coming to an end shortly as the latest word from a cool little SEO resources are telling me that Twitter in particular has had a gutfull of this kind of activity and wants to protect its web properties in the best way possible and I got to say, can you really blame them. After all, just like google, Twitter will want to give its users the best value for their time and let’s face it, who the hell wants to follow some idiot who tweets every five seconds and just talks rubbish for the sake of a link. Your feed would be crowded out by rubbish and you may well miss out on what the latest celebrity has just tweeted, not too cool aye!
So, you could be thinking what is the squeeze here and how will this apply to my SEO.Well like always I say keep your SEO clean and simple then you lessen your chances of something coming back to bite you on the bum. Just like smoking maybe it can feel good in the short term but not so hot years later when you are out of breath.
Regarding Twitter however they are taking action against a number of entities that sell or advocate software that helps people to spam their system.
There you go, another real example illustrating how uncool it is to be a spammer these days. I mean really every business or service that has succeeded in history did so by offering value if only online marketers and webmasters gave the public what they are looking for then achieving good rankings could be that whole lot easier. Just good honest content, on time with real people talking about it can work wonders for your website.
Well thanks again for taking the time for reading this post, it is always cool to ramble on about what is going on online and there is always so much to talk about it is just the time especially when it comes to search engine optimisation. I am thinking that it must be the fastest moving industry in the world or at least one of them, I know it makes my head spin. Til next time take it easy!
