Welcome to the SEO tutorial series. I am pleased to announce today that we're now starting to learn about the second core part of SEO which is Off-Page SEO. We've already completed On-Page SEO and I've shared most of the strategies with you which perfectly ensure your success in the SEO field.

As I mentioned several times before, SEO is the name of "On-Page and Off-Page" strategies. Therefore, you can't just rely on On-Page SEO to achieve high rankings. You'll have to master the art of Off-Page SEO.

Before we move forward, you must admit that Off-Page SEO is not something we could completely control, unlike On-Page SEO where everything can be controlled by us. Your competitors sometimes use bad Off-Page strategies to apply on YOUR sites so that you lose your reputation in the eyes of Google and therefore, lose rankings. What they do and how, we'll discuss in my coming tutorials. But for today, let's focus on Off-Page SEO.

Off-Page SEO consists of the following strategies:

- Social Network 
- Link Building 
- Filter existing backlinks which are of low quality

All of those parts are broad enough. We'll have to spend a lot of time to learn about those strategies and let's not forget, Link Building is the core part of Off-Page SEO and if you do well in building quality links from quality sites, then you can be successful in the long run. Social network strategies act as a shield for your site, and thus, its importance cannot be ignored.

In this tutorial, we'll learn about how to make use of Social networks for SEO purpose and how to use them as your sword against others.

<h2><b>Myth:</b></h2>

In SEO world, there are a lot of myths spread by the scammers and so-called experts who want to sell their BS products to people, and how successful they are in their strategy, you can find out by doing a survey asking about how important Social Networks can be for SEO purpose. Then I assure you, there will be a mixed group of people. One will underestimate its power while the other group will exaggerate. That's to ensure that they reduce the competition in SEO world.

When it comes to social network, there are few important sites which are key to success, and those sites are the following:

- Facebook
- Twitter
- Pinterest
- Google +

<h2><b>Why should you build Social Network?</b></h2>

When you post something on your site and let's assume that your article is properly optimized with On-Page SEO strategies. How is Google supposed to know that your post is valuable? You should give them a good reason to rank you!

For the same purpose, you'll have to share your post/article through your social network. Once you start to get several likes and shares on your post through social networks, Google will receive some signals and they are known as "Social Signals".

<h2><b>How to build Social Network?</b></h2>

Building social network for your site is not a rocket science. It simply means that you'll have to create and design a dedicated page which is related only to your site (or at-least related to your niche).  You need:

- Facebook Page (Important)
- Twitter Page (Less Important)
- Pinterest (Less Important)
- Google + network. (Important)

It can be a pain in the ass to build a large network. If you're still confused by word "network", then let me explain in plain words. The word "Network" refers to your audience. In case of Facebook, your network is your friends/audience. Similarly, on Twitter, they are your followers. The more legit shares you get, the more social signals you produce.

<h2><b>Important Info:</b></h2>

In my coming tutorials, I'll try to show some good strategies to build your social network in shortest possible time, and we will also talk about the legit vs spammy way of building the social network. 

Just remember one thing, "Hard work always pays off, it's just a matter of time".
