Simple google plus question
-
Hi,
My client
www.nlpca(dot)com
wants to know if we can just place the google plus button on their website or do we have to have a profile and such and share things regularly?
Thanks!
-
Go for the new business pages -
http://www.google.com/+/business/
Its well worth getting into using this and also think about the use of the button across the site to help with rankings as I expect them to become more and more important.
-
Why make a profile if you aren't going to use it? Having it on your site with nothing on it is worse then not having it at all?
-
I would suggest doing both.
That would be the equivalent to placing a "tweet" button on your website/blog and than not having a Twitter account to monitor the interaction.
I know it is one more social media account to manage, but approach it as another opportunity to interact and share with your audience!
-
Why not build engagement and recommend growing a profile?

Google+ Badge
I would like to place google plus bade on our site into footer(if that is good practice to place into a footer) but even the smallest size is way to long, even when I disable the cover photo. How could I do this the best way please? Thank you very much Iris

Google+, Link from My Site to Author's Google+ Page or to Company Google+
Recently I verified authorship for my Website. So the image from my personal Google+ account appears in search results. My website has a Google+ social media button. Should the link point to my corporate Google+ account or to my personal Google+ account? What is more credible from Google's point of view? What are best practices for this issue? Look forward to hearing from the MOZ community. THANKS!!!

Expand your google plus circle
Since there is no way to promote your posts on google plus it is difficult to target the audience that is in one particular niche. What are good ways to connect to a larger circle if one is in a very small niche with very few professionals?

Is it okay to have different gmail ids for Google plus and Google webmaster tools?
It was good until I have had this new website where Google plus has got an active account but under different id and the site has got its analytics and webmaster tools account set under another id. If I simply verify the site, will it be able to track authorship and social signals? Your opinions, help and guidance will be appreciated

Why would Google+ send posts as 'messages' to people outside of your circles?
A day ago I uploaded a photo of a US Navy ship mooring at Bell Harbor marina, which is across from my office (near the conference center site of SMX Advanced Seattle). A rude comment was posted by someone from Germany accusing me of sending this to them personally, offended because he's anti-military: "Don't spam people pal." I blocked him. So, since it was uploaded to my public stream and shared to my circles, I have no explanation as to how this could happen. If someone in my circles shared it to him, I suppose it could look like I sent it to him, but I haven't seen that happen before. Anyone else see behavior like this? UPDATE: because this person was within one of the circles to whom I shared this photo, he received a notification that I'd shared it "directly" with him. See comment below.

Google + Rules on Running Product Giveaways
I read in the Google+ Guidelines that running a contest, sweepstakes or other forms of contest is against the rules for Google+ However I have seen a few contests going such as share this with your friends to get entered to win. How is Google enforcing this rule? My company runs product giveaways each month on Facebook but I did not know if I would get banned for posting a link to it or building content around it on the Brand Page. I figured I would ask before I get in trouble. Thx
