Proper social media management is a full-time role that requires dedication and commitment. To boost your SEO results and gain better listings in a search engine results page (SERP), you need to focus on using social media platforms to boost your search engine rankings.

Listed below are 5 simple ways to improve your social media management strategy and enhance your SEO results:

Optimise your Social Media Pages

To have an SEO-friendly social media profile you need to be as descriptive as possible in the ‘About’ or ‘Information’ sections of your profiles. Use consumer-friendly terms that accurately describe your business.

Build Links

One of the best ways to promote your site is to build links. To improve link building, your website needs to be of a very high quality. This will encourage other high-quality websites to want to link to yours, which is recognised positively by Google.

Optimise your Social Media Content/Updates

To fully optimise your social media content and updates you should include relevant keywords in your Facebook updates, pins, tweets and descriptions. Always share content from your website or blog on social media platforms to boost your SEO results and be indexed faster.

Another top tip is to use the name of your business within your social media posts. This is because Google associates the keywords used in those posts with your business name and ranks you accordingly.

Use Pinterest

Pinterest is an easy-to-use platform that is also very effective. It’s fantastic for improving your keyword strategy and for link building. When adding images to Pinterest use keywords in the description of the image and on your board names. Also, ensure that the image can be clicked on and linked back to your website or blog.

Spend 10 Minutes a Day on Google+

You need a Google+ if you want to truly boost your search engine results. Complete the ‘About’ section with keywords that describe your business. Add customised links to your profile to link back to your website and social media pages. Interact with other users and get involved in discussions. By sparing just 10 minutes a day on Google+ you will be more likely to boost your SEO results.
