Natural SEO for Social Media Profiles

naturalseoIf you’ve spent any time browsing our Search Circus blog—or any other decent Internet marketing blog—then you know the importance of implementing natural SEO on your Website for maximum search results. Natural SEO can mean the difference between having a Website that languishes in obscurity and having a Website that gets the traffic it deserves.

But did you also know that it’s possible to optimize your social media profiles? Many believe that since they don’t have access to the actual code on their Facebook or LinkedIn pages, they have no power over how those pages will rank on search engines. But that’s not exactly true. There are, in fact, several things that anyone can do to implement natural SEO on their social media profiles. Nicole Boderm lists them on her blog. Here are a few of the highlights:

Facebook Natural SEO:

  • Get a vanity URL if possible – read FAQ’s Here
  • Use the Facebook notes section for posting blog posts
  • Under Privacy > Search settings select “create a public listing for search engines”

LinkedIn Natural SEO:

  • Your past work history should go back 10 years . Explain what you did at each company.
  • Write/Get Recommendations & Ask/Answer questions
  • Comment on the LinkedIn blog and link back to your LinkedIn profile.

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Find more natural SEO tips on this blog post.
