Now that Twitter and Facebook fan pages are included in Google search results, I thought I would share with you a few SEO tips to get more SEO push out of your twitter and facebook pages.

These tips apply to both twitter and facebook fan pages and they are simple to do.. and we all like simple..right?  lol

Choose The Best Name and Username

Your name should include one of your keywords, or at least fit your niche. Ex: if you sell dog toys, then choose a name that fits that. twitter, facebook, twitter seo, facebook fan pages, make money blogging, make money online, make money with a blog

You can also add a keyword to your display name too. I don’t do this because it makes it less personal, but if SEO juice is what you want then keyword your name too.

Use A Actual Website URL

With you url in your profile, make sure to use your actual url not a shortened one.  Also remove the “www” since Google only takes your first 20 characters.

Juice Up Your Profile

Your profile is a great place to put your keywords, but again don’t go over board since you want to personalize your profile as much as you can, and you only have 160 char. Keywords will help with search also on twitter makes it easier for people to search and find you.

SEO Your Avatar

This is cool, you can SEO your profile picture! You can rename the photo before you upload it that way when it shows up in the URL it will have the keywords that you named. Make sure to leave NO spaces.

Use Keywords and Hashtags

Try to use your top keywords in your tweets and status messages this will help Google rank you too. Also try to use hashtags on your tweets, since Google is starting to rank hashtags.

For me, I like to use #moneydummyblog for my blog posts, that way if you search that, all my posts will pop up.

Promote Your page Like A Website

Make sure that you are submitting your twitter profile and facebook fan page to RSS feeds to directories and ping it.

You should be doing this already to get your twitter and facebook page out there, but make sure to add your twitter user name in blog posts and forums.

This will allow you to get higher page ranks.

Ok all these tips are great and done will help your Google search rankings, but be sure to not go to far, to much SEO efforts and it becomes annoying to actual people, and to little won’t give you much power with Google.

What you think?  Have any SEO tips for Twitter and Facebook pages?

    Hi John
    I think SEO confuses alot of people. These are great simple steps to implement and put into action easily. Thanks for sharing your pearls.

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    JP Thanks for the comment and compliment.

    Yea I think these are pretty simple steps for anyone to do to help boost their search results.

  • http://hotblogtips.com/ Keith Bloemendaal

    Never thought of using SEO for my Twitter and Facebook pages! Great ideas here John…

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Keith Thanks for taking the time to comment.

    Yea I didn't think much about it either untill recently when Google annouce Twitter and Fcaebook fan pages results in search results.

    Every little SEO tip can help :)

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Yea I think the little time it takes to make these tweaks it is worth it. It will def make a difference with your twitter and fb searches in Google.

    At the very least, it can't hurt…right? :)

  • http://andbreak.com/ Julius Kuhn-Regnier

    Great advice here John. I have actually never thought about doing this but it definitely seems interesting. The only question is whether it will truly help to bring lots of visitors your way.
    I think some basic SEO is important but everything that goes beyond that is not really worth it.

  • http://www.hiphopdistribution.com/blog Mario Mendoza

    Hello John,

    nice tips for marketing profiles and fan pages. The hashtags is something I'm working on, especially with Google's new social circle showing up in search engine results. I need to work on increasing my chances of visibility.

    I like using different directories to submit RSS feeds to. I have a question for you. Do you have any recommendations on directories to seek out or submit to? I submitted in the past to various directories and found some that just seemed to direct spam back to my page.

    Thanks for the tips

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Hey Mario, TH for taking time to comment.

    Yea all those tips will help your twitter and facebook page get into google search results.

    I have used http://directorysubmitter.imwishlist.com/ it's free and you can sugmit to about 200 directories free. Not a bad software, and automates most of the submission.

  • http://www.hiphopdistribution.com/blog Mario Mendoza

    That sounds great John, I will get to checking that out more later today. I'm liking what I hear about the 200 directories/automation combination. Appreciate the advice!!!

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Yea cool lil software. Anytime Man :)

  • http://www.famousbloggers.net/ Hesham @ FamousBloggers

    I have done those tips exactly the way you talked about it on your post with out knowing SEO! that makes me happy to find I was on the right track! I got a PR of 5 for both my personal Twitter account and also my blog Twitter account!

    Thanks for lighting thing up John!

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Hey Hesham.. thanks for the comment. Glad you liked the post.

  • http://rentnbrickell.blogspot.com/ JoseGregorio

    John, I must agree with some of ther other comments…..I dont not know to much about SEO and would never have used it for twitter and facebook which is a huge part of my business! Thank you for the post!!!! (BTW this is my first time to your blog and like it so far)

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Hey Jose, Welcome.. and TY for the comment. :)

    Yea I didn't think about SEO for Twitter and Facebook untill Google decided to include them in search. So now is the best time to SEO up your pages :)

  • Mcneripf

    I agree that using what I call “Social Leveraging” and multiplying that with sensible SEO can potentially increase one's results exponentially. Facebook fanpage X Twitter X Your regularly updated Blog = Successful Online Image.
    Thanks for this post. You know when you hear SEO so much, it becomes chatter. You have a pretty blog here! I will implement more “SEO” and some of the ideas I have picked from this post on my personal finance blog.
    See you soon, around.

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Thanks for th comment. Glad the post was helpful :)

    Hi John, there is a typo that has me confused. In the paragraph SEO Your Avatar – I assume you mean “can” but you also typed “can't”.

    Thanks for the tips — I going to take a look at my profile now and make sure it in good shape.
    @Ileane

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    Ileane I fixed it..lol I think faster then I type :) But it should say you “can” SEO your avatar.

    Glad you liked the post.

  • clarjon

    sorry to be the grammar police, but it should be “Use An Actual URL” not “Use A Actual URL” — use “a” before a consonant, 'an' before a vowel!

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    That funny shit.. out of that post you got from and commented on that grammar error..lol Thanks buddy.

  • http://twitter.com/SEOP SEOP.com

    using your main url as a username is a great way to built your online presence. it'll help you with your reputation management online.

  • http://www.johnpaulaguiar.com John Paul

    I think that comes of spammy.. and worse part is seeing a name like “TwitterCoach” and the guy has like 500 followers and no listed and his blog has no RTs. To me people should stick to their own name and not try to hard.
