“Social media has changed the expectations of searchers.
Searchers want fresher content, they want to see what their friends and contacts have to
say, and they want access to experts and authority figures and their thoughts on
timely events and news.
Search engines have no recourse but to respond.”

User Ranks and Credential Scores
An Authority score would be based upon an analysis of the quality of responses that
someone makes on a social networking site and the contributiveness scores of the
people who posted that content.
Contributiveness scores would be based upon the quality of something that you
post or upload to a social network and the authority scores of people who respond to
that content.http://www.seobythesea.com/2011/07/how-google-might-rank-user-generated-web-content-in-google-and-other-social-networks /

Why Google Plus > Twitter + Facebook
• Google has more access to collateral data about social network interactions on Google Plus
• Google can create a credential score or User Rank based upon meaningful contributions and interactions
• Google authorship markup assigns a digital signature to content you create inside and outside of Google Plus which impacts search display and likely rankings (especially with recency sensitive queries)

SEO and Social Networking
• Promote your business and yourself through both SEO and Social Networking
• Learn how best to use both together• Develop best practices and strategies for clients• Teach and coach clients on how to social
network instead of networking for them• Use Social to build meaningful and interactive
relationships rather than buying followers
