Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Do you have a campaign set up for that site? If you add the Facebook account to a campaign you can see that info. Check out the attached screenshot from the SEOmoz account.

I'm wondering if there's a 302 redirect or something funky going on with that URL. Check the page in OpenSiteExplorer.org to see if there is something odd going on.

Just wanted to jump in and give all of the answers here a high five! These answers are seriously spot on.

I don't see any glaring SEO implications with this method, especially since page it's implemented on isn't indexed. The biggest issue I see would be the user experience. You might get a slow down in downloads from this, but if that sounds like it may not be a problem.

Hope that helps!

You're definitely on the right track. Unfortunately since Google is forcing us to use personal accounts, that's the best way to do it right now. You can transfer ownership of the account if that's ever needed.

If you do have the login/pass that was used to create the places page, you could then add your personal account as another admin as well.

This question/issue is sadly all too common when trying to set up a G+ page. I think you're going about it the best way possible!

Hey Sam!

Yep, Grovo has created their own training guides on how to use SEOmoz.

Thanks!

Hi! Do you use Wordpress? There is a plugin out there: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/crawlable-facebook-comments/ although I haven't used it personally.

Additionally, here's the post that Francisco mentioned previously: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/make-facebook-comments-box-indexable-by-search-engines.

I believe both options do the same thing, just that one is a plugin for Wordpress.

Hope that helps!

Hi! You can find info about adding it to your page asynchronously here: https://developers.google.com/+/plugins/badge/.

One way to see the differences is to use a free tool like http://sharedcount.com/ it shows you Facebook likes, shares and comments which are all different items.

Hi! Unfortunately to answer your last question, I don't think that using the Mozbar on specific pages will be overly helpful to determine those high authority accounts. While it will show you backlinks and overall page/domain authority it doesn't show you the number of followers, how often they tweet, how many retweets they get, etc.

Klout and similar services are an interesting way to finding influential/authoritative users, but it shouldn't be the only strategy. Each of the social sites has different ways to go about this and different tools exist. There are a number of great posts out there that about how to do this on the different platforms. Let me do some searches and I'll add them here!

Thanks,

Jen

Thank you, I understand the difference between a fact and an opinion. I don't state facts lightly, which should explain how much I trust it to be true.

Hi, I've edited your response as we ask that all members follow our Community Etiquette in their questions and responses. If you have an issue with another member please contact us at help[at]seomoz.org and we help.

On another note, I know for a fact that EGOL's goal is to help other community members and is not interested in points. There may be other members who are, but he is not one of them. It's always better to assume the best in people, rather than the worst.
