Unlike a few years ago, the line between SEO and social media is
starting to blur. Google and Bing are using social signals more than
ever in their ranking algorithms; and they’re not only monitoring what’s
happening off your site, but also what’s happening on it.
Today, a good SEO strategy is incomplete without a social component,
and a good social media strategy contributes to your SEO initiative.
Here are the top 10 tactics you need to employ in 2012 to maximize your
online marketing.
1. Get an onsite SEO audit
2. Register your brand name on the major social channels
3. Distribute content via your social channels
4. Display your social media “connect” buttons on every page of your website
5. Enable your visitors to easily share your content with social media “share” buttons
6. Build your email list
