Social Share Metrics?

rdisr · 09-27-2011, 01:05 PM

I notice in the Open Site Explorer Link Metrics the reporting of Social Shares. The total shares do not include the Facebook Likes. What I'm wondering is what does this mean? Do Shares count more than Likes? Are Likes not counted by Google? What about LinkedIn Shares, why are they not being reported on?

If Google is now putting more emphasis on Social where is the best use of effort? Getting Likes, Getting Shares only Twitter and Facebook and Google+?
