As we recommended in a previous article “How to increase Website traffic with twitter?”, If you’re looking to increase traffic to your websites or even your brands, Twitter is the number one investment to make. Twitter can also serve as a great channel for customer service and help businesses better manage their online reputations in real time. Danny Sullivan, editor-in-chief of Search Engine Land, published a very interesting article, where Sullivan pointed out that:
- Google assigns Twitter accounts a score. The more authoritative the Tweeter is, the higher their score. Therefore, if a highly ranked Tweeter links to your site, a trickledown effect will rank your site slightly higher. The age of your Twitter account and how authoritative you are affects your score, and ultimately your ranking, in the eyes of Google.
- Retweets also help the search engine understand that the blog or article in question is a trusted source of information, which results in higher rankings. So, the more people who re-tweet your original link, the higher your site might climb in a Google search index.
- If an authoritative person – potentially, that means you – tweets your link, Google views it as a trusted source of information. So get your information out there by posting Tweets!
