It is important that marketers take a step back and think about how people are engaging online. That is where the connection between social and search becomes more and more powerful each day. Conversations are happening on Facebook that later land on search. There are also conversations happening in social media where people are asking each other questions and finding answers. One powerful thing about the information that people are finding on Facebook is that it is from your friends — you can trust it.

Social media sites draw some of the highest traffic on the web and we believe that in the future, social networks will be anywhere and everywhere; therefore, we need to be on them. Through social media, people are more connected than they ever have been before. In that connectedness, they are sharing information about what is important to them or what they find valuable. If my friend posts a great experience in a new restaurant, I am much more likely to give it a try. On Facebook, companies are creating more and more Pages of which users can become fans. Those fan relationships are meaningful to me since they indicate an endorsement from my friend of that Page. Connections will expand and people will be able to find more information that is informed by their friends.
