How To Use Social Syndication For SEO

For some time now google and other search engines have been using social signals to determine SERPs.  For those of you not familiar,  SERPs stands for Search Engine Results Page (s).  What a social signal is would be a tweet or a Facebook post contains links back to your website, and is very helpful in your SEO.  So what exactly is Social Media Syndication?

 

What is Social Media Syndication?

Social Media Syndication can mean different things to different  SEO companies.  For some, it may mean simply posting your blog post or website page onto your social media accounts. There are many products out there that let you schedule your social media postings from one centralized location.  Most of these services will let you link to multiple social media accounts.  What DEAN Knows calls social media syndication is slightly different.
Understanding that the more social media accounts that post links back to your site the more beneficial for your search engine  optimization, we have taken a slightly different approach.  In addition, the more influence the posting social media account is that is doing the posting, the more times it is likely to be shared, re tweeted, liked etc. which all count as additional social signals. Although posting other peoples content to your social media platform may have some advantages, it wont help your websites SEO or drive traffic to your website.

 

What does DEAN Knows call Social Media Syndication?

On of the biggest challenges in content marketing is the generation of original content. Without the original content on your website, you don’t have anything to share.  If you have one blog post or news article written and posted to your social media accounts, that ends up being one Social Signal per account.   That being said, think of how beneficial it would be to have one blog post written, then have it chopped up into multiple pieces, then have each piece of that article shared by multiple people on their social media accounts?  That is want DEAN Knows calls social media syndication.

 

Social Media MarketingHows That Work Exactly?

When DEAN knows writes a custom blog post of original content for you website, we then take that post, chop it up into many pieces, and send each one of those pieces to real people.  These people then share that  “piece” or “snippet” to 4 of their social media accounts.  That creates exponentially more social signals from each article.  Pretty cool isn’t it?

 

 

Is That A Black Hat SEO Tactic?

Black Hat SEO is any type of search engine optimization that manipulates the google algorithm.  Another factor for black hat SEO is that it goes against Googles terms and conditions and Google’s best practices. Many bad SEO tactics use some form of automation to duplicate a real process and use bots to do the heaving lifting for them.  Black hat SEO can cause Google to penalize your website to the point of not being found at all.  We cant speak to what others consider to be Social Media Syndication, but since we actually have real people posting your content on their real social media accounts, this is not what we would call black hat SEO.
