Moz Guest blogging - not just great for shares on Google Plus, but also on Facebook

As shown in earlier post - guest blogging on moz.com works really well. And it works well for the guest bloggers as well as for moz - getting all the link love, attention, traffic.

In the earlier posts I show the public Google Plus shares for the User generated content blog - and also for the company generated blog. This time I checked for Facebook comments, shares and likes, with the small script here to pull the data fresh from the public Facebook api.

This is the number of Facebook comments, facebook shares and facebook likes for the guest blog posts on moz (based on the sitemap for user generated content).

This hints at two things:

1. SEO's really are into Google plus (no big surprise)
2. The moz strategy works even for other social media, which in turn might be a good signal for google: not showing just on one social site, but on several.

Guest blogging on Moz.com: Good location to get ripples

Last week I checked the company blog of moz.com for ripples, with truly astounding numbers. This week I decided to check on their user generated content - you find it at moz.com/ugc.

First, I pulled all urls from the sitemap moz.com/ugc-sitemap.xml , then again used the ripple script to get the number of ripples = public shares per url. Each url stands for a blog guest post. 

The results are impressive again - user generated content on 1708 posts generates 1251 ripples, with the top posts having 73 and 56 ripples.

The top post "http://moz.com/ugc/google-plus-authorship-one-critical-thing-you-need-to-know" author +Samuel Scott currently is in 222 people's circles on G+ currently, and I doubt there are many other places, if any, where he could have gotten as many shares as here (nor would I or many others, just to be clear).

Again - moz is a great place for seo content, and this narrow focus now on inbound marketing is highly beneficial for readers, for writers, and for the company.
Imagine to add 1251 ripples to YOUR site with guest blogging!
