What are some good white-hat social submission tools?

4 replies
Hi all,

I've been seeing that a lot of people use these tools. I'm currently using SocialAdr for the fact that users manually share the bookmark which to me is a white-hat technique.

Then I've heard of RSS submitters. I'm concerned though, do these submit a full copy of my articles to the resources they submit to? Just a snippet? Of the portion that they do submit will Google see this as duplicate content?

I also TweetAdr as again it's a simple case of manual use. I manually add 50 or so relevant 'profiles' (I use profiles as the keyword search will provide any profile that has that word even if it's completely irrelevant. Then after a week or so I will purge the list of people who have not added me back.

Any others?

Thanks!

    If you think about it, any link 'building' that doesn't involve content that goes through an editorial acceptance process is black hat.

    No tool is white hat, because by definition you're not doing things the natural way, as a person with hands, fingers and a keyboard.

    These might work at the moment, and I say might, as I'd not bother personally, but they could cause your troubles in the future when a search algorithm works out how to detect automated tools.

    I use to use tools until the google updates and most of the sites I had were kinda lost into the google sea. I would not suggest anything other than building links by hand to your pages, however i have been using fiver to build links to my links not sure how this will work as i just started to use fiver for this but i will let you know

      Well actually these tools are done by hand. If you notice in the description of the tools they are not 'automated'. Even the SocialAdr tool, which has a paid option doesn't provide you with backlinks. It merely provides your url in front of other users (humans) therefore that makes it a white hat seo. In my view black hat is when you have a tool that 'blasts' ie. creates the backlink without any user intermission.

      TweetAdr only automates the process of following people. Each and every user you follow has the choice of whether they follow you back. The tool does not do this for you.

      Of course, without good content, nobody will follow you. And if they do and your content is poor they will eventually unfollow you.

      Writeaway, as each user chooses to share your url or follow you back, does this manually, this is in fact the editorial process.

      Plus this is just a view of mine, but I don't think Google has the power to reach into the social media realm. The issue with social backlinks vs website backlinks is that Google page ranks each website therefore if you get a lot of low quality backlinks from this type you may/will be penalized. However social media is not something that Google would rank unless the site is dofollow.
