Social Media Accounts

Search Engines Are Placing More and More Importance on Customer Engagement within Their Search Algorithms

Search engines are putting increased importance on social media customer engagement into their search results.

Every “like“,”share“,”pin” and “check-in” can significantly boost your search engine presence. As a restaurant owner or manager, you may think that leaving your social media account management to an employee “because they are on Facebook all of the time” is a good idea. With the increased value of your social media channels, it is best to have a strategic plan to socially engage your customers and attract new ones. Social media marketing and search engine optimization are now entwined. To succeed in either of these aspects, you must have a presence and an outlet to engage your customers. Welcome to the world of social search.
