Google Plus: Pages
Filed Under SEO
Last week, Google announced a new feature for Google Plus – pages for businesses and brands. Google Plus “pages” is similar to Facebook’s pages for businesses; so what is the point in joining a new social network so similar to Facebook? I quickly created a page for each of my clients, in hopes of gaining an advantage in Google’s search results. Facebook is more established and already has millions of users; chances are your friends, family and clients are using Facebook and probably haven’t taken up on Google+ yet, so don’t worry about having yet another website to keep up with on a regular basis…
By creating a business page, you can add link to your website and create a profile about yourself and your firm. In the future, I expect Google to incorporate Google+ pages into their search results, much like that already do with local business listings and Google profiles. Getting in early with Google+ pages costs nothing and can only increase your exposure online, so why not create yours now?
