Microsoft's New Social Networking Site So.cl Review

So.cl the new social networking site is now available for everybody to use.So.cl is the new social networking site by Microsoft.This is a great news for all the people using internet. This social networking site is specially made for children by Microsoft.

One can easily.sign up this site with Facebook or windows live id as I have experienced.This site looks to be a combination of the other social networking sites like Twitter , Facebook and Google + as it has some features of all these three social networking sites.You can follow people and others can as well follow you back (this feature is from twitter).you can share and tag multiple photos at one time.You can share links.You can also update status same like Facebook or twitter.

There is one more new feature in this site which is something like the one in pinterest (social networking site).You have drag a so.cl button to your bookmark's bar and when you want to share any site or images you can just click that button on bookmarks bar and share your interest on so.cl.This is a very easy method to share your interest.

How Helpful This Site Can Be For Seo (search engine optimization) ?

As I mentioned above this site has some new and exciting features which were never seen before.This site is newly established so its obvious that you may not have as many users as in Facebook, Google + or twitter.But as people have a option to sign in with Facebook its gaining quick popularity.As everybody knows Facebook is the most popular social networking site in the world , the owners of so.cl have a option to sign in with Facebook purposely.This will help them getting quick popularity.

There is one more very good feature which I have not mentioned above.Here on this site to share your interest or status you don't need to have friends or followers.There is a public stream available where the shares and status of all the user's of so.cl can be seen. I updated my status when I signed in, when I had no followers but still I got comments and likes. I was surprised and just found out this new feature. This is great for traffic purpose. You can get a good traffic due to this feature here.

But this site (so.cl) will not be helpful to you in getting back-links.Yes, you heard right. This is because when you disable the java-script of your browser your updates status or any links of yours are not visible. Everybody doing Seo might be knowing that links which are not visible when java-script is disabled are not crawled by Google.

I hope to see few more improvements on this site by Microsoft.And get an opportunity to write a review again, where I could be able to appreciate this site in every line of my review.
