Hello,

I am just wondering if having a twitter account boost your ranking on the internet. I have the feeling that it doesn't because all of those sites have a nofollow unless the authority of the domain passes through the no follow or robot.txt...

Thanks,

Just having an account for your business? Not that I know of.

However, if you use the account intelligently, then you start to pick up links from other sites that do help you. That's the indirect effect that most social marketing has right now.

I need to say that all social community websites such as facebook, twitter etc are only for generating traffic, google and other search engine not focused for ranking prospect.
