Hi Rod,

 

Understand your cynicism but we've noticed a definite correlation (not
necessarily a proven causation) between social endorsement and Google
rankings.

 

It's also worth bearing in mind that Facebook will eventually get its own
search engine act together and when it does, 'Likes' are likely, like, to be
a ranking factor. This must keep the Google people awake at night, poor
luvs!

 

These provide more food for thought too:

Hi all.

 

It seems to me that FB likes were only ever understood as genuine
endorsements for a very short while  - now they are perceived with banner
blindness blinkers.

 

My boss recently decided (after years of not wanting to participate with
SNs) that we should put a company FB page up. The next step is of course to
get the 30 likes.

 

A quick search shows me that there are lots of people willing to give me my
30 likes for a couple of bucks. I don't feel like playing this game. I mean
how many people seriously visit FB corporate company pages..

 

Can someone motivate me here ? Or not really.?

 

Thanks

 

Rodders.
