The Importance of Social Media in 2024 | Insights from James Dooley & Karl Hudson

Episode 20 Published 2 years, 1 month ago
Description

James Dooley and Karl Hudson sit down for a focused discussion on how social media virality and behavioural signals can amplify SEO performance. James challenges Karl on whether traffic from platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and even Google Ads truly influences rankings, and Karl breaks down why diversified traffic sources, branded searches, and real user behaviour are especially powerful for money sites. They explore how Signal Boy uses paid traffic and large-scale social campaigns across Reddit, hashtags, Facebook groups, and other platforms to send real users to targeted pages—improving engagement metrics, click-through rates, and indexation speed. James and Karl also explain how behavioural traffic works best as tier-two support for citations, guest posts, niche edits, and parasite SEO, and why combining strong backlinks with visible user engagement helps validate links in Google’s eyes. The conversation also covers using traffic signals to address keyword cannibalisation, and why modern SEO strategies should treat traffic and engagement as a core off-page ranking lever, not an optional extra.
