Social Media Optimization is very successful for internet marketing business in these days or we can say Social media optimization is improved and fast growing version of SEO. But it does not take position of SEO because it is just a part of Search Engine Optimization.

What is SMO?

Social media optimization is very helpful in website traffic exposure. In SMO, social profile is used on Social networking sites which gather a huge traffic for website. I am defining here some social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Myspace, You tube which are used for social media optimization. Forums, blogs, Images, Videos, Podcasts are also part of social media optimization. In other words, we can say that viral networking is closely related to Social Media Networking.

Social Media Optimization is smart way to optimize any website. SMO not only generates traffic for website but also increases ranking of the website on Google and your business reputation too. There are some rules of SMO are given below.


  • Increase Content's linkability: Linkability is most essential precedence for all websites, because most of the sites are static. To optimize a site for social media, First and most important step is to increase linkability of content and blog hosting is very helpful to improve linkability of content.
  • Build tagging and bookmarking: Adding content features like quick buttons “bookmark to delicious” “share on facebook” “Share on twitter” etc. is simple and easy way to make the process of tagging pages easier. 
  • Reward inbound links: Return or reward inbound links are used as a gauge for success of a website or blog; inbound links are dominant to rising in search results and overall rankings. From using Permalinks to recreating similarly, listing recent linking blogs on your site provides the reward of visibility for those who link to you. 
  •  Help your content movement: For SMO only changes in existing website is not sufficient. When you have a content that is portable like audio files, video files, PDF etc then submit these files to relevant sites only that will help your content travel and will increase a back links for your website.
