Are there plans for Moz to track social activity for LinkedIN Company Pages any time soon?
-
Currently only Facebook and Twitter can be tracked. My business focuses on B2B and I focus heavily on LinkedIN and would like to track activity from LinkedIN. Any plans?

Hi Dave,
Unfortunately we don't have any plans to integrate with/track LinkedIn data due to how difficult it is to integrate with Moz. I'll pass this along as feedback to our Product team though so we can continue tracking this request. You mentioned on tool that can help monitor your linked in data but another option to look into is Raventools as well. They should hopefully be able to help out here.

Please keep us updated. For B2B companies tracking LinkedIN traffic is extremely valuable. FYI Hubspot is able to track this data.

Hi JP,
Our Product team is looking into this, but as of right now, there is no ETA on including LinkedIn because their T&C's don't allow us to store anything we collect which effects reporting in Moz Analytics. We do plan on revisiting this conversation sometime in the next quarter though. Sorry I don't have better news
Best,

Hi!
The beta for Analytics has actually been live for a while. I can't tell you exactly when you'll be rolled into it, but it shouldn't be too much longer now. Sorry I can't provide any more concrete details!
Best,

Hi Sam,
Any idea when the beta will go live?

Thanks for the question!
As of right now, the next social network we plan on incorporating into the Social Dashboard is Google Plus. This has already been added to the Dashboard for Moz Analytics so you'll be able to access this when you transition over to the beta. We do plan on adding other social networks as we go, but I'm not exactly sure which will be added next.
My recommendation would be to submit this in our Feature Request forum for our Product team. They review this on a daily basis and use it to plan our roadmap. They may also be able to shed some light as to whether or not this is being added in the near term or if it's a little farther out on the roadmap.
Hope this helps and hope you have a great day!
Best,
Sam

Counting unique landing pages in Google Analytics: social vs organic channels
Remember the technique Rand posted for counting the unique indexed landing pages on a site? http://moz.com/blog/indexation-for-seo-real-numbers-in-5-easy-steps I'm using Google Analytics to compare this result for the "social" channel vs. the "organic search" channel. The idea is to see whether social or search delivers people to more unique landing pages. I would expect organic search to yield a significantly higher count, due to long tail searches for relatively obscure terms. We have an archive of over 500k pages that Google could be indexing, even if only a fraction of a percent of those might be getting social mentions. But that's not what the numbers show -- I'm seeing roughly 10% higher numbers for the Social channel than for Organic Search. Again, I'm counting unique landing pages here, not the total pageviews or visits. If anyone else here is monitoring these metrics, please chime in with your results. What's the baseline expectation for a large website with hundreds of thousands of pages of issue-centric user-generated content? Should search traffic provide 2x more landing page exposures than social? 5x? 10x? or 0.9x, as in my case? In short, I believe these numbers are pointing to an indexing/ranking problem following a recent site redesign.

GA Bounce Rate vs Time on Page
I have a niche site that attracts between 50 to 100 visitors a day. For the past several weeks we've been working on a new article and the with aid of social media have attracted 2,000 visitors in the first 24 hours of posting, a dramatic spike in daily visits. Visitors are spending about 10 to 12 minutes reading the article and then leave our site. So, the GA bounce rate is quite high at about 95%. Does Google know this is a compelling article for our niche based on the number of visits and time spent reading the page? Will the high bounce rate affect the article's PR, or do they also consider the time on the page? Best,

Do having social sharing icons such as Twitter and Pinterest slow down site speed?
We are debating a redesign of a travel site and wondering whether having social sharing buttons including Pinterest and Facebook above each image would slow down site speed and therefore have a negative impact on our rankings. We are deciding between having the icons above each image or just in the side bar of all pages. Many thanks, Penny

Custom Social Media icons: Good or bad?
Hi guys, In our never-ending search for better SEO strategies and results, our journey has led us to question the idea of creating custom social media icons for our site. We are wondering if anyone has had experience, either negative or positive, by using these icons, or if there is no difference at all? I would like to make it clear that we are only thinking about customizing the icons that lead to our Facebook page, Twitter profile, YouTube channel, etc. NOT the like/share/tweet/etc buttons. We understand the negative effects in changing those icons, but are interested in knowing if creating general icons that match our design will be a good or bad thing. Any replies are appreciated, thanks!

Incentivisation Strategies for Social Sharing of Product Pages
Hey, What are some great tips for gaining social shares on ecommerce product or category pages? I understand great images and video will go along way, but it's difficult on a large scale ecommerce store. Receiving an offer for sharing something is great - I honestly cant think of a way to track this strategy in a large scale manner. I can send an email after a purchase making an offer to go back to the page to share, but how would I track this? Thanks.
