- Increase brand visibility and reach new audiences

- Boost conversions with targeted campaigns and social proof
- Foster loyalty through meaningful community engagement
Social Media Can Help Your SEO Rankings
Since 2011 (possibly earlier), Google has been using social media engagement metrics to influence rankings.
Other search engines such as Bing are sure to follow if they have not already. Social media actions such as likes, tweets, retweets, mentions and shares are used by Google as a form of proofing the content – if actual people like it then so do they! In a similar way to the now standard form of hyperlinking for SEO benefits, social media actions are like votes for the web page and its content.
The more votes a web page or website has, the more likely the content is to be seen as reliable (or interesting). Basically, the more likes or sanctions your website or web page gets then the more Google will think it is relevant and reliable to the search keywords/phrase entered.
