Facebook comments and seo
-
hi everyone
i wondered if googlebot explores facebook comments and if not, what are the seo benefits of facebook comments module?
As you can see below, techcrunch has added facebook comments in pages
http://techcrunch.com/2011/04/04/facebook-iphone-event-check-ins
So is it useful for SEO purposes?

Hello,
could you say what the name of that plugin?
-
I had the exact same question, and found a Wordpress plugin that makes Facebook comments readable.
-
It may be that using this add on has some benefits within Facebook search which is currently pretty patchy in my experience.
-
my technical team, also thinks that comments are not viewable when googlebot explores the website...
so if everybody thinks so, that means it isn't necessary for seo purposes to use the new facebook comments plugin na?
-
Hmmm, interesting, ill have a play. Cheers Lewis.
-
Facebook comments are locatable within Facebook but all testing I have seen/done has shown that they are not viewable via Google.
You can check by searching for a facebook comment you have made using site:facebook.com so it only returns results from the Facebook domain.

Hey Franck
I am completely lost when it comes to facebook. Twitter I can understand, it's all public (or most of it, unless you opt out) but facebook activity is mostly private. I am guessing that this mainly relates to public facebook pages and the like but I still don't understand how facebook shares impact SEO and had been meaning to post that very question.
Anyone got the 5 minute skinny on this?

Why am I seeing so many referalls to my root domain from Facebook in Google Analytics?
When we look at referalls from Facebook in Google Analytics, more than 50% (and sometimes upwards of 80%) of the traffic we're getting is listed as landing on our root domain. The thing is, we don't have any direct links TO our root domain on our Facebook page. So is this legitimate traffic, and how are they getting to our page if we have no links to it? We do post links to stories, videos, etc, but those are to the individual pages, not to our root domain. When I look at those pages that we link to, they do have traffic numbers, but nothing compared to the root domain. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.
