How to get power tweets & Likes for social signals!
-
Hi,
Just been looking into social signals a little deeper.
From what I have read a tweet from one page is not the same as a tweet from another page, the authority and influence is also a big part.
So a tweet from CNN does a lot more then a tweet from a random.
So how do you find these authority and influential pages/users?
I have come across Klout.com which gives a score out of 100, which is one way I guess BUT I have also noticed mozbar stats change for different facebook pages.
Q: Can you use the mozbar on facebook & twitter pages to workout who will generate the best social signals?
Cheers

Hi Jen,
Thanks for the reply.
That would be useful, social seems like a big area now for SEO and I think maybe even some SEOmoz input on the subject would be great.
1. Best practises for getting the most out of your social pages (facebook, twitter, plus1) and these types of articles.

Hi! Unfortunately to answer your last question, I don't think that using the Mozbar on specific pages will be overly helpful to determine those high authority accounts. While it will show you backlinks and overall page/domain authority it doesn't show you the number of followers, how often they tweet, how many retweets they get, etc.
Klout and similar services are an interesting way to finding influential/authoritative users, but it shouldn't be the only strategy. Each of the social sites has different ways to go about this and different tools exist. There are a number of great posts out there that about how to do this on the different platforms. Let me do some searches and I'll add them here!
Thanks,
Jen

Building relationships with people in your field is key, Google + is very good for this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/5-tips-for-managing-community-on-google-plus. Mention people in your niche, comment on their posts, give them value. Then ask them to share your content/tweets etc...

Image Audit: Getting a list of *ALL* Images on a Site?
Hello! We are doing an image optimization audit, and are therefore trying to find a way to get a list of all images on a site. Screaming Frog seems like a great place to start (as per this helpful article: https://moz.com/ugc/how-to-perform-an-image-optimization-audit), but unfortunately, it doesn't include images in CSS. 😞 Does the community have any ideas for how we try to otherwise get list of images? Thanks in advance for any tips/advice.

Http & https domain names
We currently have a site which we found SEM Rush to show that their were duplicate pages for the site. Upon further inspection we realized this was because there existed both http:// and https:// Versions of the site. Is this a problem for Google that the site appears for both http:// and https:// and that there are therefore duplicate versions of the site?

Robots.txt, Disallow & Indexed-Pages..
Hi guys, hope you're well. I have a problem with my new website. I have 3 pages with the same content: http://example.examples.com/brand/brand1 (good page) http://example.examples.com/brand/brand1?show=false http://example.examples.com/brand/brand1?show=true The good page has rel=canonical & it is the only page should be appear in Search results but Google has indexed 3 pages... I don't know how should do now, but, i am thinking 2 posibilites: Remove filters (true, false) and leave only the good page and show 404 page for others pages. Update robots.txt with disallow for these parameters & remove those URL's manually Thank you so much!

Menu Structure & SEO
Hi I have been trying to decide whether we need to change our menu structure http://www.key.co.uk/en/key/ We have a lot of subcategories which are not in the menu structure and for SEO I wonder whether its best to have menu drop downs, so if a customer hovers over one category, it will display all the subcategories within this. I am concerned that sub categories we are trying to rank are many levels away from the homepage e.g If you want to find leather office chairs from the homepage, you have to go to the 'More categories' link, then choose seating > office seating > leather office seating. Users need to do a lot of navigating before seeing what we offer. I would prefer if a user could see these options in the menu when they hover over it. Does anyone think this would help SEO or just customer journey? Thank you

SEO for Metasearch sites like KAYAK or Trivago
Interested in getting some opinions of best practices for large dynamic sites? My main question is, should we be focusing on a different "strategy" if we have a similar type site or does the same principles still apply? Second question is would building a blog presence in our community be a better strategy than trying to get our dynamic pages to rank? If there is a great step by step or white paper resource anyone could recommend, would be greatly appreciated, as our technical team is just diving into SEO. If anyone cares to take a look, our site is SupremeGolf.com

Affiliate & canonicals
Hi, any help with this one would be great.... www.example.com sells widgets online. They are also promoted on a 3rd party website www.partner.com. Currently www.partner.com links to a page on www.example.com that is completely branded with the 'partners' design, style and unique copy (you would think you were still on 'partner' website). I saw this interesting article from 2011: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/getting-seo-value-from-your-affiliate-links (in particular idea 1) Do you think adding a rel=canonical on www.example.com's partner page is still safe? All the best & thank you, Richard
