    It definitely helps, it's the single best source of targeted and devoted traffic, next to forums.

    Forums are still ahead only because they've been around longer, that will change very shortly.

    I do not use social media for my SEO activities. To me, it works more for attracting direct traffic.

    I think social media is big in seo. You can gain a lot of traffic naturally through social media. Also, I tend to believe that using Google+ and being an active member of that community helps when ranking your site on Google.

    Social media can play as big of a role as you will let it. The more you engage with people the more you'll get back. There is a direct correlation between putting out and getting back in this world no matter what it is. The harder you work, the bigger response you'll get from others. The more creativity you put into your content the further it will go.

    A year ago, I might have said not really. However, with the new updates to Google (accounting for G+ first), I think it is critical in this day and age.

    However, seeing the latest ACSI report, when social media gets a 67 overall for satisfaction, it gives me pause to think we are getting over-saturated with it and people are tuning it out.

    The best way to drive traffic though is still through your list. Social Media will always assist in filling out your list, but you will always turn to your list to be your bread and butter.
