A report from SEOmoz named “2011 Search Engine Ranking Factors.” Talks about the influence of shares from top social media site Facebook on SEO.
In the report, SEOmoz detailed the connection between Google SERP and Facebook and tackled the issue as to if Facebook shares does impacts Google’s search results or if it is just plain coincidence.
The verdict was that they could not 100% prove that Facebook shares does impact the SERP of a website. The closest answer they could come up with is that of a strong connection between better search rankings and Facebook shares. So as you can see, we mere netizens are still in the dark as to what the real score is.
