I was testing impact of Social media submission on one of my site from a about a month where I selected 10 URL with specific keywords for each page. Then we start submission of each URL in 100 Social sites (2 URL's per week).

I found that as we started to submit the URL/same keywords, the keywords started to drop in SERP's from page#1 to Page #2, #3 and sometimes even #5. ( Note: All 10 keywords were ranking on page#1 for their respective URLs). I some cases the keyword rank stayed, but the URL was removed from the ranking.

However, due to the authority of the site, the ranks were all back within 2 weeks, but for me a complete NO to Social submission for sites hereon.
