Social Media Adult Websites
-
Hello,
Do you recommend using the buttons (facebook, twitter and google +1) on pages with adult content?
For adult seo marketing google uses this metric?
Thanks,
Stroke

Thanks for the tips, but do not understand how I see some sites linked from facebook like porn.com

Think about it but Facebook Adult content is banned via user streams so if some one likes content then it is aggainst policy.
But yes Twitter and google+ the rules are a bit more relaxed in this area so I guess adult web master have been getting away with it and seeing good results.
I read an article recently saying that Tumblr was a very popular social place to syndicate adult based content too, so that could also be an options possible.
Sorry I do not really deal in the adult niche so I am not an expert I only read bits and piece online

Erica, good testing insight.
I could not find anything on Twitter either...I recall at SMX West one of the speakers was discussing banned content and I believe it included adult links.
-
I couldn't find anything if Twitter does have rules against adult sites.
I think it is worth it. Certainly people who run adult sites network together and sites that allow anonymous usernames were people can have their hidden accounts from people who don't want their adult content interests under their real names. Which give Google +1's argument for real names only, it might not be worth your time with them.
I'd set up a test on a couple popular content pages and compare if people do indeed share if there are buttons that allow them to do so and if the rate is at a level to justify doing it on all your pages.
I'd also take a look at your current analytics to see what percentage of your traffic is coming from socials sites people have more manually put in and if that traffic is worth it.

and twitter?
But addressed the question of the topic, it is worth letting the social buttons to allow adult content?It is worthwhile to make some buttons to social sites?
-
Google +1 doesn't have any regulations against adult sites.
-
and google +1?
-
Hello,
FB will not allow it...It's a policy located in the Deveolpers section..

How relevant is social bookmarking for SEO today?
I've been doing SEO for a little over 4 years. I've never used sites like Digg, Stumbleupon, Reddit, etc. either personally or on behalf of my clients. This past week I had a discussion with another SEO who asked what I'm doing for my clients with regard to social bookmarking. I responded that I'm really not doing anything and they were shocked. I took a pretty good verbal beating over it. She was borderline offended. I have always been able to deliver solid results for my clients without any type of social bookmarking, so I struggle to see the need, but am surprised at how shocked this other SEO was that I don't do it. How beneficial is it and am I really missing out?

Should my small business website link to Yelp?
I'm kind of on the fence about this one. Should I include a social media icon for Yelp on my website? We have great reviews, but so do most of my competitors. I'd like to share my reviews, but I also do not want to send traffic away from my website to another website (Yelp) that lists my competitors. What do you think?

Social Media Approaches for a Pest Control Company
Hi Everyone, I am working with a pest control company that is looking to branch out into social media. Their primary goal is to connect with their existing customers to improve retention. The secondary goal is to potentially pick up new clients. With that said, I wanted to see if you all had some ideas on things that they could tweet/facebook about on a regular basis? Posting about bugs on a daily basis gets pretty boring. I know Rand has been talking a lot lately about not being so narrow, so maybe we should talk more about general home improvement? Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks! EDIT: I should clarify that this is a company that has maintenance plans. You don't call them only when you have a problem. You sign up with them, and they treat your property every 3 months, or whenever you call. Only about 2% of their customer base is one-off phone calls to fix 1 problem and never come back again. I don't think their existing customer base will have any issues with Liking them on Facebook or following them on Twitter. The initial plan is to incentivize them to do so, but once we get the like/follow, we want to continually be in front of them with interesting content, contests as Jay suggested, etc.
