Increase Google Search Visibility for you

Can social networks help with search engine optimization? Before answering this question, a quick glossary of SEO terms for readers who may not be SEO experts.

Glossary of SEO terms
SERP: search engine results page
Search scope: The location that the URL occupies in SERP for a particular keyword
Search visibility: A metric that is used to calculate the visibility level of a Web site or page in the SERP. If the number is 100%, for example, it means that the URL is in the first position of a keyword (s). Search visibility is especially important when tracking a site's aggregate ranking for a basket of keywords.
Domain or Power of the Page: The power of a site or page on a particular topic in the eyes of search engines. For example, search engines realize that the Hootsuite blog is the reference in social networking marketing. This means that we have a better chance to rank keywords related to social networks from a food blog like Smitten Kitchen.
Do social networks help improve search engines?
The question of whether social networks have any impact on SEO has been discussed for a long time. In 2010, Google and Bing both acknowledged using social signals to help rank pages within their results. Four years later, this situation changed after Twitter temporarily blocked Google from accessing its social network. In 2014, Google's former webmaster, Matt Katz, released a video explaining how Google can not trust signals that may not be there tomorrow.

This is where the conversation stops. Since 2014, Google has publicly denied that social networks have any direct impact on ratings.

But now 2018. Much has changed in the last four years. One notable change is that social networks are starting to appear on search engines on a much larger scale.
