Does google "like" links from facebook?

Social media is also a 2011 trend in SEO. It has been confirmed that major search engines like Google and Bing take into account links found on social networks.

yes, indeed that is one of the reasons why web owners and SEO experts are taking good advantage of social media.

I think google likes this kind of links

2nd December 2010 both Bing and Google have confirmed that links shared through Twitter and Facebook have a direct impact on rankings, in addition to the positive second-order effects they may have on the link graph.

Yes Google crawls the updates on Facebook like crazy and is good to get new pages on your site seen by Google.

Google give much preference to the links coming from Facebook and also give more importance to all social media sites.

Thanks

Facebook is considered as the biggest social networking site. So Google crawls every updates that will occur in FB.

Google crawlers like links from Facebook, mostly the updated content and links. This way of promotions in Facebook helps your site to get exposure and also gain huge traffic from other users.

Yes, Absolutely right i agree with you.

facebook links are nofollow, it's only use to advertise your website just like twitter and multiply before...

though it's a nofollow i still have backlinks to it,...

If you are talking for getting backlinks in Facebook, the answer is no. You cannot get backlinks from them but you can use them to drive traffic to your website.

We can use this traffic links from the social-networking site to generate backlinks and through creating an interesting post in the site, we can attract the members as well as the visitors to promote our site.

what made you think so ?

I believe a no follow is correct, but if you create a Facebook fanpage with the same name as your
website or keyword, you can also get google rankings. I hope this helps.
