3 Tips to Make Your Website More Social

As social media has matured, it has made one of the most difficult transitions a medium can undergo, evolving from a casual time waster to a necessary business tool.

Seeing the massive amount of time consumers spend on social networks, many brands have incorporated social elements into their own websites in hopes of driving more traffic, higher on-site engagement and increased conversions.

3 Tips to Make Your Website More Social

Let’s explore a few ways to make your website more social.

1. LEVERAGE THE POWER OF REVIEWS

Customer reviews are one of the most important social elements that a company can incorporate on its website. In fact, according to a study conducted by Dimensional Research, 88 percent of respondents reported to be influenced by reviews – negative and positive alike.

Thanks to consumers’ desire for customer reviews, there are a variety of firms that provide the necessary technology. One of the most popular customer review technologies on the market, PowerReviews, provides a range of services to businesses, including Social Answers. Through this product, brands are able to display commonly asked questions directly on their product pages with answers from consumers who have been verified as actual buyers. PowerReviews customer Skechers saw a 32 percent conversion increase with Social Answers.

2. EMBED OFF-SITE CONTENT

Another way companies are making their websites more social is by incorporating content from social networks directly onto their Web pages, such as with real-time Twitter feeds.

Conveniently, both Facebook and Twitter provide detailed guidance on incorporating content from their networks on other sites. For Twitter users, a single line of HTML is all that is needed to embed a timeline of any account’s Tweets, favorites or hashtags on a site.

Brands are also able to embed content from their Facebook Page on their website via the network’s social plugin. Users can even customize the embedded content in a variety of ways.

3. CREATE YOUR OWN NETWORK

Another available option for companies looking to incorporate more social elements into their sites is to create their own social forum – like Skype did.

Created by social media solution provider Lithium, Skype’s onsite social network, dubbed “Skype Community,” is a forum where users can go to voice their opinions and concerns regarding how their Skype is working as well as help other users who are experiencing difficulties. When users see a post they find particularly helpful, they are able to award “Kudos” to the author. To leverage these peer ratings, Skype created a leaderboard on the front page of its Skype Community – encouraging participation and utility.

Most SEO companies over promise and under deliver. Nabil and his team have knocked it out of the park and have been so good to work with. Personable, knowledgeable, prompt, and accountable. We feel we have a partner in our business to drive growth. Leads have increased and we made some operational changes to ensure the phones were being answered for a winning combo.

I had worked with Omaha SEO and felt that they were doing a lot of work for me and we still were not getting results like I wanted in a very competitive market. We tried some different ways to look at what was happening and then he got an idea. We tried it for a couple of weeks, and the phone rang almost every day. After a couple of weeks, "crickets" again. We knew what was made the difference--his idea worked. He kept working until I got results that brought clients to my door. I am very grateful for his professionalism and tenacity. It paid off.
