      Having a FB, Twitter, Blog or Youtube account can boost your website in Off Page SEO when you link back to your site from those properties. The same goes for any property really. Just built some properties with some content and a link back to your site and it will most definitely provide some backlink juice or power.

      facebook, twitter, youtube are all nofollow. Although tweets can
      appear in google searches, all three of those have little to do with
      SEO. But what they can do is get you target visitors, regardless of
      search engines. And that's what everyone should be concentrating
      on anyway. Blogging can help with both. In fact, blogging with
      twitter is a powerful combination for website traffic.

    Yes!
    In fact it's almost a necessity these days with regards to SEO.
    Social metrics are incorporated into the Google algorithm, so creating a Facebook fan page, getting your site "liked" and "shared" across Facebook, using twitter, and last but not least, blogging will help with SERP rank. In most cases these links will be nofollow, but your site will gain traffic from them. And if your content is unique and well written, other sites will link to it.
    Its a win win situation.

      Actually, Facebook 'reviews' have started to pop up under Google Places pages as a review site, so don't be so quick to discount the nofollow links, because other Facebook content IS being shared through Google.

      I would imagine in the not so distant future that twitter stuff will start to appear for Google Places in some form under "discussions about this place" or something similar.

      I realize this applies to local, but having a strong local profile can also increase organic ranking, so it's something to think about going forward.

    Aside from the traffic you get on your site with Facebook fanpage, tweeting and blogging, though facebook is nofollow, facebook accounts and profiles appear on the first result page of Google so it's pretty much helpful.

      Twitter may help SERP by using a url shortener and customizing the url to include your keyword. If the link is picked up or re-tweeted on another site, you will earn a backlink.

      You can try bityly to customize you url's.

        You people are mixing apples and oranges.

        Getting traffic via other means is not SEO. It's getting
        traffic via other means. I buy a billboard with my website
        on it. That's not SEO.

        Helping your domain in SERPs is what SEO is all about.
        Getting exposure is getting exposure. It does nothing
        by itself to help with SERPs.

        What you are talking about is funneling traffic, not SEO.
        You know, "search engine" optimization...
