Is it possible to see who have liked your blog post ?
-
I was wondering if you have a like button on the blog and people use it to like a post , is it possible to find out who all have liked the post ? ( there is a counter to show the number of people who have liked the post, but could not figure out who have actually clicked the like button )

No, it's not possible for a user to see who has made thumbs up and thumbs down.
There was an interesting discussion about thumbs down on Twitter the other day. Rand said (and I agree) that it does help minimize some flame wars, especially in the comments. Rather than a ton of people saying "that's stupid" or "I can't believe you said that", a thumbs down is a way of more politely expressing disagreement.
I agree, it's never fun to see something you've written have a thumbs down and have no idea why.

Off topic, but a number of youtube negative clicks may be accidental as they have the buttons so small and close together

Is it possible to see who have liked your blog post ?
If only.....
Because the next question is who disliked your blog (or Q&A) response. I had this thought just today. I read a fantastic blog article from Cyrus: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/blog-design-for-seo. This article was everything a fantastic article should be: informative, helpful, thought-provoking, insightful (I'll stop the adjectives here) and overall kick-ass. It even included a world-class infographic.
115 thumbs up, 4 thumbs down. I have absolutely no problem with anyone offering a thumbs down. I just wish they left a comment offering ANY feedback as to what they disliked about the article. Maybe it was a misclick? Maybe they disagreed with one of the 15 points. Maybe anything, but by sharing feedback it would save the author and other readers from wondering what might be wrong and offer the author an opportunity to improve next time.
I run into this same feeling when I watch awesome youtube videos like this one (Bon Jovi + Jennifer Nettles sing You Cant Go Home as they volunteer and help Habitat for Humanity build a house for a family): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CeX5VEo10c. There always seems to be that 1% of people who click thumbs down.
Some people have road-rage, I have evaluation rage. When that 1% thumbs down and don't leave any feedback I just want to.....
Oh well, this reply will probably receive the most thumbs down of any I ever offered, but I can at least laugh about it

Does posting links in comments on Linkedin count as blackhat?
Hello, I noticed a competitor site has started writing a post on linkedin and then adding the link to the article they are referencing in the comments section. I started to dig into this and came up with this useful post https://growthrocks.com/blog/linkedin-abtest-link-in-comment/ to me that all screams black hat, spamming and scamming... What does the Moz Community think? Sincere thanks for feedback and I hope you're safe - wherever you are... Rhiannon

Should I use FB Share or FB like option?
I am confused between choosing Facebook share and Facebook like options on my website. Like is a one step process but it won't be visible in friend's feed whereas share is 2 step process but is visible in your friend's feed and it reaches more people. Did anyone experiment with these two options and found which works better?

How Have You Got More Likes On Google +?
Hi All, My company has done fairly well with regards to achieving followings on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. BUT one that we REALLY struggle to get a following on is Google +. We have about 25 Google + followers, compared to 1.2k Facebook likes and over 2k Twitter followers. We do relatively similar things on each of these. What can we do to increase our following specifically on Google +? As it stands we do pretty similar things, it would just appear that there's not much taste for us on Google +! What kind of things have you guys done to boost your followings on Google +.? All suggestions are appreciated! Thanks Sam

How Should I Optimise Feature Images for Google+ Interactive Post Snippets?
Hi there, I'm in the middle of optimising my site to create decent sharing snippets to improve the overall experience and quality for visitors. One thing I've come up against though is trying to balance site design with the requirements of schema.org and Google+ I've recently just altered the layout of my site to now visually display a brief post description to go into the Rich Snippet Google+ creates, but the images Look a little bit shorter than what they could be. I'm curious to how I could perhaps serve a dedicated image for the Google+ snippet (a square cropped version of the large feature image that's given to each post) while avoiding forcing all users to load a second image I don't even really want to show. I'm also in the middle of deciding what content to prefill the post text with, I'm thinking about tagging my own Google+ id and maybe using some post relevant hash tags too. Does that sound like a good idea? Thanks for 95e0ec7c46e6e66c0a966089d7805813

Facebook Likes, Google +1s tactic - is this a good idea
Hello, For our eCommerce site, we're considering doing the following: When people call in to place an order by phone, we take their order and tell them while we have them on the phone that if they click the Facebook Like button and Google +1 button on our site's home page, we'll knock $3 off their total. We would just show them where the buttons are and refresh our screen to make sure the count went up by one like and one +1 when the customer said that they pressed the buttons. Then, we would continue with their phone order and just knock off $3.00 I may not do this just because it may be grey hat, but it seems 100% safe forever. If you recommend against doing this, can you think of any 100% white hat way to do the same thing? Thanks.

Facebook "like" discrepancy
This is a pretty stupid question sorry, but hopefully it is easy to resolve: Both OSE and Woorank list our site as having 17 Facebook likes. The Facebook icon on the page shows 92 likes. Our Facebook Page shows 560 likes. Where is the 17 number coming from?? our page is: http://www.GoldMaxUSA.com/ Thanks, Jason

Facebook Likes not counted
So many of my clients are (very) small businesses and have added a like button to their website home pages that actually has the person liking their Facebook page rather than the website. Without debating the pros and cons of this approach, it would seem that Facebook has changed it so that if someone clicks a like button that is for a page they have not actually visited the like does not show up in the like count for that page? Is that correct?

Facebook code used in Huffington Post
I like the call-to-action button that HuffPo uses on its FB button, where with one click, a user on their site can 'Like' their main page on Facebook without actually having to go there (assuming that they're logged in, of course). I'd love to use it on my site but... I'm trying to understand how this works. It seems like it's a custom wrapper, as i'm not seeing the toolset in dev tools (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/ etc) Anyone know about this?
