Social Media is to SEO as Peanut Butter is to Jelly

 
Social Media is to SEO as Peanut Butter is to Jelly

            Some people want to take the word SEO and alienate it from the phrase Social Media that I believe is completely wrong. When Google Plus launched many people were saying that SEO is dead or its going to die. The truth is if you take away SEO you will have to take away text itself. All SEO does is make websites searchable for the terms that people are typing. As long as people are searching for something on search engines like google, bing, and yahoo, there will always be SEO. In fact the more people socialize on Social networks the more necessary it will be to have SEO.
             I believe anyone who wants to capture a particular demographic should have their website optimized in addition to having Social Networks tailored to their website. I believe it should be a mandatory that anyone seeking to capture a certain audience has at least Facebook and Twitter created for their website with links to these networks. If one has social networks but doesn’t have the site optimized they may capture a portion of their audience but by not doing the SEO for your website one is making a Peanut Butter sandwich with no jelly.
