Instagram - Any ideas how this can be used for SEO?
-
If indeed Google does use social signals for ranking factors, how would you go about using Instagram for SEO (if it's even possible)?
Thanks

Social signals are not strong ranking factors, at least not yet. The only social network that has direct impact on rankings is Google+. Twitter activity has been correlated with rankings, but the results are debatable (although Twitter is great for getting new content indexed).
It is impossible to get followed backlinks from Instagram, so it has no direct impact for SEO per se. However, it can still be a great way to build up your brand, build an audience, and gain free organic traffic.

Facebook Instant Articles - will it hurt SEO?
I am intrigued by Facebook IA and am thinking that putting some of my company articles on it would be beneficial for marketing. Question is, will it hurt SEO if I take an article that is on my website and also submit it to Facebook IA? Will it register as duplicate content in Google? Could it have other benefits/risks?

Can you have FB Comments post to a business page?
I am looking into incorporating Facebook Comments into my site. When commenting it gives the option to the commentor to post it on their FB wall. Can it be setup to post everyone's comments on my site on our FB business page? I tried to use the commenting tools while logged in as a page, but it said I had to be logged in as a person. If not, how do I get notified someone has commented on my website through FB Comments so I can reply?
