A Great Compliment to Link Building Through Social Networks and Their Effect on Google SEO

With the growing number of Social Networks, and their enormous audience, we have identified a quick way to begin building links to your site which will in turn help your Google SEO efforts. Do you already have a twitter account, or a Business Facebook account? Both are great at creating extensive links to your site.

If you have not yet created a Twitter account, do so immediately. Find a name that relates to your product, idea or passion. If you have a website about apples, get a twitter name with the word apples somewhere. Begin by finding the highest ranked Twitter users by searching TwitterHolic, then click on the people they follow and look for members who have somewhat even number of followers to following.

This means that they likely have automated following, meaning that if someone follows them, they automatically follow you back. Just think of it this way, if 20,000 follow them, and they follow you back, now your Twitter network is 20,000 more strong.

Find 10, 20 or 100 members like this and you now have a very large network. The content of your message is very important as you want to attract new followers. Think of this process like recruiting. If you don’t have the right “pitch”, they are not likely to follow, so be informative. Making sure to provide information of value can be tricky. I have found easiest to always talk about things I am passionate about. It seems effortless.

After you have built a nice following, you can begin to send messages related to your product. I try to follow a simple rule, how many sales related messages am I willing to read before deeming that person a marketer and un-following them. A good place to start is 1 message about what I am trying to promote for every 10 non link messages.

Once you begin sending messages about your idea, website or product, make sure to include a link to it. Now just that think, if your Twitter network is 20,000 strong, that link now has gone to 20,000 Twitter pages, essentially creating 20,000 links to your site, product or idea. Do this on a regular basis and you won’t believe the results.
