        It's unlikely. It may help a bit if your traffic's experience on the site is really good, but otherwise no. Sure, if you now have 100 visits/month and you'll get 1000 more, which have good analytics stats, it may improve your case. But if you're already doing pretty well it won't improve your case too much.

          Short answer is no.

          For further discussion: does Google Adwords traffic affect your SEO? Answer is no, so how could social media paid traffic help? 😉

          hope it helps.

              If the user experience for paid traffic is bad, you'll be losing money. I think this area is mostly self policing. I have seen zero evidence ever that Google takes paid social traffic user experience or volume into account for organic rankings. It doesn't make sense to do that because those users behave drastically different than a user on organic search. Why would you base organic search rankings on paid social traffic?
