Does more likes equal higher rankings?

Social media is so much fun, and such a giant time sucker.

But does it really have any impact on your Search Engine Optimisation and ability to rank?

Social signals and their importance in relation to rankings is something that’s been hotly debated for years.
There are lots of people is the YES camp and about the same number in the NO camp.

In today’s episode, we’re going to dig a bit deeper into the relationship between social media and SEO. And I hope that by the end of the episode, we’ll be able to be 100% clear on whether social media metrics have a direct impact on rankings.

So, if you’re a Facebook fan, Instagram addict or Pinterest tragic. This is the episode for you.

Tune in to learn:

  • Does social media directly influence rankings?
  • What do SEOs mean when they talk about causation and correlation?
  • Do links from social media count as much as links from a regular website?
  • Does the number of followers I have on Instagram, or Facebook influence how Google sees my website?
  • How can I use Twitter to boost my SEO?
  • Does posting on Google+ help improve my ranking?
  • How do I optimise my social profiles for SEO?
  • Is traffic a ranking factor?

Why you need a fast site, not an AMP site

These days, everyone in the SEO cafeteria is talking AMP, AMP, AMP.

It’s been around for a time, and while some earlier pioneers have tried to make it work (me), many failed (also me) and have given up.

So, when I saw the title of Jon Henshaw’s presentation at the recent Brighton SEO event ‘ FORGET AMP. MAKE FAST SITES', I thought my prayers had been answered! No need for AMP?

That’s why, today, I have Jon on the show to give us the low down on AMP and speeding up websites.

Tune in to learn:

  • What is AMP?
  • Why AMP might not be great for your website
  • Why we need fast sites
  • What’s the ideal loading time
  • Advanced site speed improvement tips
  • How to improve your site’s images
  • How improving your site’s UX can help speed things up
  • What is prefetch and how does it help
  • What is Gzip and how does it help
  • Jon’s favourite site speed testing tools
