Does blocking social networking sites will increase traffic or website ranking in search engines?

   Posted by: admin   in increase traffic website


Social networking sites can INCREASE your site’s traffic… Why on earth would you think that "blocking" them would help you get traffic?

Social networking in general can help to build up traffic to your site, but do VERY little to help your site’s rankings in the search engines UNLESS 1) you have a huge following and some of your followers begin linking to your site from their web sites or 2) you have something that goes viral on because of social networking and people begin linking to your site.

It’s LINKS that you get through social media that cause your pages to rank better in the search engines’ organic rankings.

How do you suggest blocking social networking sites?

If you can get links from such site they will (should) help increase traffic and rankings - I say should as if the links are from people saying that your website/company is awful and not to be trusted then it could work the other way, what you want are links saying that your website should be one that people visit for what ever reason.
