    Just to add on the topic of social media’s impact on SEO, while a strong SM presence won’t directly help your website rank up, it will definitely help your BRAND rank higher and gives additional access points for people to discover you. Having your website linked to your SM accounts means that even if people are discovering you through your SM account, they still have easy access to your website for more info, etc.

    Definitely agree about not paying for followers on social media. Not all followers are created equally. Especially on Facebook, where their algorithm ensures that only a tiny fraction of the people that like your page actually see your posts. Having a bunch of disengaged/fake accounts like your page will actually hurt your reach considerably.

      We definitely agree that linking your social media and your website is the recommended thing to do. At the end of the day, it’s all about getting organic traffic. This is something we may have to cover in another video, wouldn’t you agree? 😀
