"We're trying to take Google's core products and add a social component. If you think about it, it's obvious. With your permission, knowing more about who your friends are, we can provide more tailored recommendations. Search quality can get better.”

Quick tips to ranking well
Engagement rules! (for both Google and Facebook) • Use content to create inbound links • Incoming links = good • The quickest way to get lots of links? Create amazing things • Earn media
• Video — blended search results • Own more of the result page • Relevancy determined by views, likes and text content around
video (again, good stuff = more views) • Spend time optimising and seeding video outside of YouTube
![Page 51: Facebook an unexpected challenger to Google's search](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/554bc0ffb4c90530298b50ef/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Quick tips to ranking well
• Social Media optimisation — get the likes (and retweets) • Integrate SM channels on your brand
sites (different levels of integration) • FB like boxes • FB like buttons (beyond just the brand
page, products too)
• (For now though, it’s actually all about the wall and newsfeed!)
