Assuming I get to index my social media post linking to my website (Twitter, Fb, LinkedIn, whatever).

If I blast that social media post with proper GSA links, will it pass link juice?

It sounds okay in theory, but I'm not sure I'm right.

And while I have you here: do shares / retweets counts? I assume they do very little but in a different way?

Thanks!

No, they're good enough to help with indexing and build some trust,
Most of them are actually nofollow and barely pass any link juice,

Blasting them with GSA links will be pointless as well,
not even for indexing since these websites/links usually get crawled/indexed in their own

No. They don't pass link juice. If they do it'll be super low to the point it's negligible. But Google has othrr use cases for social media links.

Use your socials as parasites & for branding.
They won't help you much with SEO as their value as a quality linking property has dropped over years.
They are good to build your brand presence & drive traffic so don't ignore them.

Most social signals platforms use NoFollow links, meaning they don't pass link juice. However, they can contribute to referral traffic when your audience shares or retweets your posts. Social media can indirectly help grow your website's traffic and visibility.

Using tools like GSA on social media posts isn't a good idea because social platforms don't really pass on link benefits. While shares and retweets don't directly boost SEO, they can make your content more visible and trustworthy, bringing in more people to your website

I think its not about the link juice but about the TRAFFIC bounce rate that it produces on your website from ex: Reddit.

People see this as "link juice"

if you compare results between the two below

#1 Link A from reddit = sends no traffic (obviously theres no traffic here because the page sucks)
#2 Link B from reddit = sends traffic (winner, obviously this page is sending you traffic beacuse it attracts real users)

its all relevant.

They wont help you in passing Link Juice. Even if they do the impact will be very less. They will help you to get traffic and build a brand presence.
