Can I get backlinks for my site from social media sites like facebook,etc??
yes you can.
On facebook they have a section is for your events, links you can share it with your freinds on facebook, meanwhile, if your website has a "Share this" function to each content, they use the "Share this" function to share your links on facebook.
[QUOTE=gurvinderpal;21488]The backlinks from social media sites are no-follow and hence doesnt help in rankings at all,,but if done effectively they can give u a better brand recognition[/QUOTE]
gurvinderpal. digg is dofollow, so as twitter, so as facebook. Am i right?
I use and encourage the use of social media to build backlinks not because of any Page rank gain but simply to help generate traffic. But make the content of them interesting otherwise you will just annoy people. I think there will be changes to the importance of social media backlinks over time esp from Google
