What does Social Media have to do with SEO?
Search engine rankings are a secondary result of viral content that reaches the right influencers - if executed properly, a successful social media campaign will boost search engine rankings significantly.
Put another way, think of a search engine's job as summarizing what the web is talking about in the form of search engine listings. If people are talking about and linking to your website, then a search engine will want to rank your web page(s) high on their listings. The purpose of social media is to expose your site's content to a large audience thereby increasing the chances that people will begin talking about and linking to you - and so search engines will begin to make your site's content more visible.
