Sorry for my english but i had to say: 100% agree with you! :) I really liked you post: social media marketing and seo prospectives have to be linked in a planned and general strategy… everyone can be a social media expert but i don’t know if everyone can improve one site rankings with a planned social media campaign… without knowing about ‘general’ seo rules.

Thoughtful and thought-provoking. I think you're right that engaging in social media doesn't require the same sort of specialized knowledge or commitment to the industry that SEO does, but I think where we see companies fail a lot is in trying to use them overtly as selling tools. I would venture that most 14-year-olds can build bigger, more focused, more eager audiences across all social media than many companies ever have. Social media is primarily that, social. So, in at least one regard, responsible social networking is much more difficult for people with something to sell. People follow people that they like. Robots follow exact what they're told to follow. SEO is about understanding guidelines that can be researched and applied in a calculated way. Social media is about understanding people, and that can be much tougher to pin down. Really great article. Thoughtful and thought-provoking.
