Hi Paul,
Thanks for reading and your comment. I agree with you, take a look at a post that I wrote earlier this month about the new Google caffeine update:

I wanted to correct the comment about Facebook, Twitter not affecting your SEO. Starting Jan 2010, (if you have been keeping up to date)Google has stated that Social media will be playing a more important roll in their new formats and will continue to do so. Especially with the new ‘caffeine’ program they are rolling out where you can Google active feeds. It may not have the same weight, but as things evolve in the SERP’s and changes in algorithms progress; I think anyone who is staying ahead of the curve will stand to reap large benefits.

I agree with you Nick SEO is not all about rankings.The main purpose of SEO is to target the audience to avail product/services that they offer but these kind of online marketing SEO play the important role to all and any kind of business.

Hi Jess,
Thanks for stopping by and reading.

This is true, but SEO is not all about rankings, it is about building your business, brand and reputation with your audiences and over time you can earn great rankings, which will lead to an increase of visitors and sales…its all part of the package

Good article, but I would clarify that social media sites, like Facebook, Twitter and Wikipedia, don’t actually help your SEO rankings directly as Google does not take those into consideration. However, they do help drive traffic to your site and allow you to establish relationships with your audience.
