James Dooley: How to rank Blue Sky posts in Google search results? Today I'm joined with Jesper Nielsen who does a lot of social media marketing, social media management. He's come out with an amazing new tool called Social Media Poster, which is able to do all the planning and scheduling of all these different posts. And what I love about it is that it actually integrates directly with Blue Sky. But for anyone who's watching this and looking to start doing daily posts on Blue Sky social media platform, how do you actually get the Blue Sky posts ranking in Google?
Jesper Nielsen: Well, first of all, for those of you that don't know what Blue Sky is, it is a social media platform that is almost identical to X Twitter because it I believe that it was founded by some of the original developers from Twitter. So, social the social media platform Blue Sky is it works kind of like a tweet platform like Twitter. So, you go in, post something, and then click post or tweet. Um and the simple rule that I follow when I want to index and rank a Blue Sky post is I take my keyword and put it at the beginning of the post. So, for example, what is link building and why is it important for local SEO if I wanted to rank for that? I'm not saying that the Blue Sky post could rank for that. Probably could not, but if that was my keyword, I would put that in the beginning of the post, and then, you know, new line, and then write some more text because when I send this post to the indexing service Prime Indexer, what it will rank for is the first six to eight words inside of the post. So, this will be kind of like the SEO title that it will appear for in the Google search results.
James Dooley: And then directly underneath that, that's a question you'll do like a semantic triple answer to that question is the title tag.
Jesper Nielsen: Yeah, it's a good point because if you if you structure the post kind of like a question-answer like you just suggested, it will have a much higher chance of indexing and ranking because Google really likes that and also Google understands it. So, and one much trick that you can actually use is that if you have access to Schema Writer or Yext, for example, you can actually go in and find related entities to your keywords. Some of the application that are built into Schema Writer and Yext. But, you can also just go to Wikipedia and find entities uh named entities and I found that if if you actually insert two or three named entities in the beginning of the post, it will index and it will also rank higher. Because it seems like Google is using this NLP models, these NLP models, the neural neural linguistic linguistic not programming, but they're using uh yeah, you know, they're using AI to understand what you're what you're uh talking about and they are mapping the named entities in their model to understand and find out where where can you index and where can you actually rank.
James Dooley: Yeah. Does that make sense?
Jesper Nielsen: Yeah, yeah, for sure. So, obviously entity op- entity optimization by getting more entities on the page uh or in the status, the better it can be. With regards to ranking Blue Sky posts in Google search results, do you use hashtags? Now, I do remember when I first started on Blue Sky, hashtags used to be all the rage. So, you used to be able to click on the hashtag, it creates a new page. You can then get all the information put on there as well. The hashtag URL can index. So, there can be multiple ways of feeding the AI overview with your information. Are you using hashtags on the post or do you find that it's it doesn't help with indexing or ranking?
James Dooley: I do use hashtags, but not for the purpose of helping it to index and rank. I think that we talked about this in a previous episode that some of the social media they have the um when Google visits some of the social media, Google will actually look at your hashtags and then convert the hashtag into the SEO title. I know that's the case for LinkedIn and it seems that they kind of like just switched it up also with Facebook with regards to the hashtags, but sometimes Google are actually reading these hashtags. So, when it comes to Blue Sky, if you want to your post to index and rank for your keywords, then I would not use hashtags actually because there is a chance that Google will actually just use that as the SEO title and you you don't want that typically.
Jesper Nielsen: Yeah, that's exactly what I thought you was going to say because
James Dooley: Yeah.
Jesper Nielsen: especially on LinkedIn and I've seen it recently on Facebook as well where you the minute you put a hashtag in, like you said, it that ends up overriding the first up to 10 words. So, then you it's not the main keywords that you wanted to get in, especially if it's a question and an answer. Now, it no longer becomes the question of what it's trying to rank for and then the it's all kind of miss out of sync. But is there anything How do you find Blue Sky works for indexing? Does it index okay? Does it not? And how does it compare? You said it was the developers from Twitter or now X. How do you think Blue Sky compares to X?
James Dooley: I think that what I see is that when you're when you're inspecting the Blue Sky domain, it doesn't have this domain authority as the X domain has. And it actually shows when it comes to the ranking anyway and also the indexing because the post that you publish on X, they often times they actually index it by themselves. You don't have to do anything. But they index relatively easy and that's not quite the case with Blue Sky. They also do index but not to the level of Facebook and X post. But they can index and with come to when it comes to ranking power, not much.
Jesper Nielsen: Yeah.
James Dooley: So that's just yeah.
Jesper Nielsen: On that, when you're doing social media posts or you'll do different social media kind of statuses. So if it's like say if it's a web 2.0 or let's say it was LinkedIn, you might do a longer type of status. And presumably on Blue Sky, it's almost like a tweet which is quite short and concise. Do you do you therefore keep that as being the same content that goes throughout quite a few of them? You don't end up trying to add anything extra onto Blue Sky.
James Dooley: No, I don't I don't when it comes to Blue Sky, no I don't care because the I mean the ranking power of Blue Sky is so small. So it's just I it's not worth the time just doing anything on on Blue Sky and but sometimes I do post a longer tweet or longer post because I have the premium account on X. Blue Sky of course is free but I do have the premium account on X. And that allows me to post I think it's up to 28,000 characters on X. And what I build in in in Social Media Post that that it actually detects this long post. So when it comes to threads and I think we also added it for Blue Sky is that it then takes your text and then splits it up into different tweets. So tweet one, tweet two, tweet three, tweet four and so on and so forth. So I think that's nice when it comes to threads and Blue Sky that you can have these long series of tweets connected.
Jesper Nielsen: Yeah, that's good. And then with regards to images or videos, do you ever put any images on Blue Sky?
James Dooley: No.
Jesper Nielsen: No, so you just keep it as being short concise and keep it as being the text.
