Google Gives Facebook Pages Some Extra Love
Google has announced via Twitter that public status updates from Facebook are now included in the search engine’s real-time search feature.
What Does That Mean?
That means the largest social network in the world is getting some love and now appearing in Google’s real-time search results. These real-time results are often featured prominently on the first page of search results for the hottest queries. This can allow you to add another top page placement for your business by seeding the right keywords in your updates, proving you a nice boost in targeted visito numbers.
Other Real-Time Indexed Sources:
- Twitter tweets
- Google News links
- Google Blog Search links
- Newly created web pages
- Freshly updated web pages
- FriendFeed updates
- Jaiku updates
- Identi.ca updates
- TwitArmy updates
- Google Buzz posts
- MySpace updates
- Facebook fan page updates
A lot of brands and small businesses who don’t have Facebook pages in place should really consider establishing one after this Google announcement.
