Google's viewpoint is that they are not certain, so they don't recognize it as a definite signal. Although if you are thinking of purchasing a whole lot of likes, then don't do that!

Google sees these comments and shares very differently. They perceive these activities as powerful social signals with the same impact on search rankings.
