Why are the crawls not picking up my twitter account?
-
Hello everybody,
For some reason, both the google crawler and the SEO Moz crawler are not picking up a twitter account I am using with my site. Maybe I am doing something wrong?
My website is http://www.compare4me.ie and the twitter account is http://twitter.com/#!/compare4me
Thanks in advance.

Looks like its a nofollow link and to quote the Google support site...
"How does Google handle nofollowed links?
In general, we don't follow them. This means that Google does not transfer PageRank or anchor text across these links. Essentially, using
nofollow
causes us to drop the target links from our overall graph of the web. However, the target pages may still appear in our index if other sites link to them without usingnofollow

Hope this helps.

Twitter Account Locked Issue
Hi, Has anyone experienced issues unlocking Twitter accounts that has a mobile phone connected with it that is no longer valid? I have situation where an account is locked and in order to unlock this a code must be sent to the mobile number that was originally used to set this account up but the number in question is now obsolete and not in use. I've made numerous attempts to contact Twitter's customer service but they are almost non-existent and not unresponsive. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can resolve this or know a direct contact email or number for Twitter? Kind Regards

Twitter stats
I am trying to increase the position of one of my deeper links (my site.com/targetpage) trying to use twitter to up this page as a new strategy. I have 18 on OSE for my twitter metrics but none on the deeper link (i havent tried yet for this). How do i actually get the a twitter metric score for this deeper link? Does the tweet have to be the actual target page URL? Or is it a twitter share button on the page? Confused how it works. Thanks, Chris

Does Twitter and Facebook feeds help SEO
For a new site, I want to feed in Twitter updates and Facebook posts onto the page. I regularly update these feeds. I'm using PHP to directly integrate with the two sites API and grab the data. Is this a good idea? Will it help SEO as its fresh content? Is it a good or bad idea to have a social media feed page on the site that grabs content from these sites?
