Hi,

In trying to rank some branded social media websites higher than say PissedConsumer.com.

My question is, does doing link building for a brand's Facebook, Twitter and Youtube page rank it higher for that brand name?

Thank you,

Ed

    If the brand is quite new, you can probably get away with this. However, if the brand you're competing against is established, you need some heavy duty backlink sources. It's not the quantity of the BL but the QUALITY.

      What if the brand isn't that new, but isn't that well-known either?

    What you're essentially doing is reputation management. Or at least that's my interpretation based upon what you're asking.

    Whats the real question/issue?

      Correct, John, this is for reputation management. So let's say there's a Pissed Consumer listing around #6 on Page 1, and the brand name's Facebook page and Youtube Channel page are lower than #6. Will link building to those social media pages help push it higher than the Pissed Consumer listing?

    If you only wish to brand better in search engine then you only have to rank well in SERP ranking. Backlinks, quality and fresh content where you cannot ignore due to high competition .
    You can think of try google adwords to help you build brand name and press for CPM because if you target traffic then you have to target cpc , if you wish to build brand name then go with cpm for display and text adwords.
