Social shares mean high search rankings: stats

Social shares on Facebook and Twitter closely correlate with how a site ranks in Google searches, according to a new study by Searchmetrics.

Facebook activity appears to have the highest impact on rankings, with a Facebook share the most important factor.

Twitter is far behind these values but is still the sixth strongest metric behind Facebook and the number of backlinks.
