I've created facebook, twitter, Google+, LinkedIn profile in the same name of my domain and whenever i type the domain name these social networking profiles are shown at the top than the main domain. Can anyone suggest me how to outrank those profiles and show my domain name at the top instead of these profiles?

    Actually this is not a problem since anyone who searches for your site will easily find you, anyway a reason might be that you search in Google while you are signed in Google, for example if I search for the domain name of my site while I am signed in Google the first result is my Facebook fan page while when I am not the first results are all for my actual pages of my site...

    Actually it is an issue, if you are getting these links before your website, it tells you that you need to work more on SEO.

    You have very few backlinks that counts.

      Actually, it can be both good and bad. It really depends on your goals. If your clients are spending more time on FB or other social sites than your site, it says that your content may need tweaking.

      We recently launched Kraftwurx and have been very busy building traffic doing both On-site and offsite SEO. You have to do both. No way around it.

      Until your actual domain has content that pulls in traffic...the social sites zre going to beat out your own site.

      I have another domain Digital Reality that always gets beat out by Wikipedia where a company from Hungary exists called Digital Reality. It does not amaze me at all that Wikipedia outranks my own domain but getting above it is impossible, even when the other company is not even from the USA. The wiki site is for US yet a Hungarian company wins out.

      It will take you some time to figure out the secret sauce but it will be a never-ending struggle to maintain rankings when Google moves the targets.

    Don't worry, this is normal for a new website. Try to add more quality backlinks and contents to your own websites, and your website will overank FB, Twitter, Google+ and Linkelink profile.

    I thought of changing the profile name but dumped it. As everyone suggested here i should do more quality backlinks to my website. Thanks for all your suggestions.
