Are social signals a google ranking factor?

From I what I can gather there is a debate as to whether social signals are a direct ranking factor. Google has never confirmed that they are to my knowledge. However, studies point to a correlation between SERP results and social signals. Correlation does not mean cause and this could simply indicate that better content is more likely to have social shares, and better content is more likely to rank.

I understand I may have answered my own question here, but in your experience is it worth the social media effort in order to move up rankings? Or are you just trying to get your name/content/voice out there?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

Copying articles from Google Docs To Wordpress - Bottleneck

My writer sends me content in Google docs and images separately. Uploading them to Wordpress is a pain because I have to download everything individually and upload them one by one. A simple copy paste works for the most part but the main issue is - I want to give my images SEO friendly file names and copying them from docs names then 'image 1' , 'image 2', and so on in Wordpress. Does anyone have a solution for this? I would be forever grateful as it would save me a lot of time in uploading content. submitted by /u/Eastern-Individual64 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/KiTmF28
