Get Any Page Social Media Popularity at a Glance
When a normal person visits a web page, all he sees is content: text, rich media and links. When a marketer visits a web page, his first thought is how many people this page attracts and his second thought is why (that’s when content evaluation comes into play).
This week I’ve compared three multi-feature SEO toolbars that may partially answer the first question: how well a page might perform in search engines.
But unfortunately, those toolbars has little (or nothing) to say about the page social media popularity. The best social media monitoring FireFox addon I am aware of is Social Media for Firefox Extension. For any page you visit it displays:
- Digg score;
- Reddit points;
- Stumbleupon reviews;
- Mixx upvotes;
- Sphinns;
- Tip’d votes;
- Twitter messages.
This gives you sufficient data to assume how popular a page is and how much traffic it might have generated from social media sites.
All the information is displayed in the status bar. You can configure it if you want the data to be retrieved automatically for each page you visit or manually (when clicking the tool icon). You can also remove any network if you don’t need its ratings.
Clicking each social network icon will bring you to the submission page where you can vote or comment (except for Twitter icon that opens search results). If the story hasn’t been added to the network yet, clicking an icon will bring you to the page where you can submit it.
Which social media addon are you using? Please share them in the comments!

Great post
As social media grows more important we really need these informations in a toolbar – rather than Google Pagerank and other outdated stuff.
Steen Öhman’s last incredible blog post..SEO David Naylor on reputation management
That is a most intriguing add-on, Ann. I’m off to get it. It should prove most useful since it is too time consuming to think to get this data any other way.
Social media is so time consuming. Great information to take into account to save time…really appreciated, we will try it for sure.
Congrats for this nice post.
Read about your toolbar blog, last week… But this one looks even better, will surely try it out, thanks…
With twitter, the problem is with shortened urls. Even if it checks by article name, I doubt it will show correct numbers.
Mozilla has very good add-on’s which will save us the time. This social media add-on also works properly..
Great information to take into account to save time
http://socialmention.com/ should release a Firefox addon!!
Hi Ann,
You are right at this point. As the trend in SEO being chaging for time to time, it’s also most important thing of the changing the way of SEO tool giving out results. The tools you have mentioned have missed out this feature. These are the most important in SEO for a website.
Hey its really a nice toolbar. It seems to be work fast rather them manual submittion. Thanks for sharring
Very nice, but I never install a firefox add-on without checking the code. Can you tellme the purpose of this snippet of code in startup.js?
req.open(
‘GET’,
‘http://www.97thfloor.com/social-media-for-firefox/put.php’ +
“?url=” + encodeURIComponent(content.document.location) +
query,
true
);
Great tool bar, i would love to recommend it to my fellows thanks.
i love it . and i am also follow it.and also a Good tutorial for the users.
Nice Articles Very Good Site .Thnaks For Sharing Comment.
PageRank is probably one of the most important algorithms ever developed for the Web.
PageRank is not simply based upon the total number of inbound links.
The basic approach of PageRank is that a document is in fact considered the more important the more other documents link to it,
but those inbound links do not count equally.
good points here about Trust now being a major factor in search engine results,
that goes with what Rand and others have been saying too.
this also settles for me the value of a natural approach to gaining backlinks and not getting a huge bunch of them,
or a large # of high pr backlinks in a short period of time – it rather undermines the Trust factor.
I do wonder what you think of bing and how Trust does/will play a role in their results.
it seems to me from a rather preliminary and cursory look at some results and comparing those to over at google and yahoo,
that bing ofter relies more on the keyword/s being the actual url,
which seems to me a rather poor way to rank sites/pages.
