Google Social Search

By Liam Lally 28th January 2010 Blog & 1 more

Google.com has begun rolling out the Google Social Search feature.

This started as one of Google’s many Google lab experiments, and has finally “graduated” to be included in the normal Google.com search screen. At the moment (from the UK) it is proving difficult to get access to have a play with this search, however it will appear under “more options” – therefore keep an eye out for it.

Essentially Google Social Search allows you to search for content blogged, twittered or written about by people in your social network.

At this stage we have no idea when it is likely to reach these shores.

I had the pleasure of attending a Business Club Lincolnshire meeting where Liam was the guest speaker. The subject of the presentation was "Generating Business Through LinkedIn". Liam clearly demonstrated his passion for the subject and his in-depth knowledge of Social Media as a business tool. Liam was very keen to share that knowledge with the group and was very open and helpful when questions were raised. Liam's presentation was very professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him if you are looking for advice or assistance with Social Media for your business.

Liam's knowledge and expertise in the field of Internet Marketing, Google Search Engine Optimisation, Google Adwords and Social Media is evident for everyone to see. We invited Liam to discuss the possibility of including SEO within our current website update. He spent a lot of time understanding our business and the products and services we provide and went away to produce a proposal. His attention to detail and commitment to offer the highest level of service meant that Liam spent several days researching the opportunities for Allen Signs. The proposal he provided was excellent, clearly explaining the research he had undertaken with accurate figures of potential search details. With such a comprehensive proposal it was decided to hire the services of Liam and Zaddle Internet Marketing. Since we have worked together on the project Liam has shown that his undoubted ability to produce is matched by a very friendly and personal service, often going above and beyond to help with this project and others. I would not hesitate to recommend Liam to anyone interested in improving there online marketing and having referred his services already the feedback received mirrors the service we have been provided, reinforcing his status as a Google Specialist.
