I agree with rohitsharma. Social Media sites like facebook, twitter etc. caneasily helps to increase your website visitors. You can easily promote your website on social media. You can create group, follow friends, share your thoughts or promotion through your other seo work. For example you post a blog in tumblr than you can directly post it on your social media. It is very easy to use and it is very useful to get popular over the net and as well as get visitors.

SMO is very useful to get publicity to our site and traffic will increase. Facebook is an effective tool to share the links and we can create community pages in the name of our sites and can make number of followers in it. Also discussions with links are possible in community pages of facebook.

For getting unique visitors one need to keep updating his/her friend-list with new friends because if the same people are visiting your website more than once then they will not be counted as unique visitors.

Links posted on facebook are No-follow so they are of very little importance for increasing page-rank but Facebook can be effectively utilized to draw traffic in herds. Links from facebook count in Google webmaster tools.
