We are running into some issues that would be great to have some input on.
During our web site optimization for Google and other search engines we have
been presented a problem.
One of the things that Google and other search engines rank web sites based
on is social networking traffic. We are not big fans of Facebook, Twitter,
and many other social networking sites.
The question is what do you think of us adding 'social networking' to product
pages? We have been advised to do this and would prefer not further promote
the use of many of these web sites.
You can see what the person we hired to do this has done by looking at the
bottom of the following product page:
https://www.thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/bluetooth-wireless-optical-mouse
Does anybody have a reccomendation on how we can utilise this without
encouraging users to join?
I believe the FSF or associated projects have added "if you have an account
at these sites help promote us... but please do not sign up if you don't". We
may be open to this approach. Any suggestions on how to impliment that (if we
move it to the top) in a limited ammount of space without hindering the
design element?
Feedback is aprechiated. We are open to any suggestions you may have.
