How much of an impact does Google+ page age have?
-
Do Google+ pages gain authority with age? Does it matter very much if I wait a few months to make a Google+ page as opposed to establishing it now, even if I won't be doing much work on it for a while?
-
I agree with Brad, It certainly won't hurt to get a jump on the pack. I don;t take anything lightly that google promotes and unlike other social sites google plus does follow.
-
I'm not exactly sure if a Google + page does gain authority with age, but is there any harm in starting the page now and getting a 2-3 month jump on building relationships/networks with others?
If you are thinking about doing it, why not just do it now? Plus - there's some great resources out there, particularly in the SEO industry. I've learnt a wealth of information in the 1-2 months I've been on Google +. Just my 2 cents.

Google Plus page - keep or delete?
Do you guys think that if we are not going to be able to maintain a Google Plus page, from a SEO standpoint is it better to keep or delete the page? Also, do you guys think there's still SEO value to having a Google Plus page in general? Is it worth it? Thanks! MS

Visits in Campaigns report exceed pageviews in Pages report in Google Analytics
We tag our links in social media posts with the source (i.e. Facebook), medium (Post) and campaign (i.e. kids funny sayings). We often see in our Campaigns report that the number of visits generated by a Facebook post exceeds the number of pageviews for that linked to page in the Pages report Has anyone else had this experience and why does it happen? Or am I missing something really obvious or doing something wrong in which case, please please enlighten me!

Merging Google+ Pages and Google+ Local - how?
A client is one brand with several locations. Previously, we had created a Google+ Page for each location - now we're finding out that we should have created only one brand page with a Local page for each location. Two questions: Is this correct? Do we create a brand PAGE, with separate LOCAL profiles for each address If yes, is there a way to merge the work that we have already done on the pages to the Local profiles? We don't want to lose the followers and updates that we've made to these pages. Thanks for the help!

Google Places - Local Biz Listing
I have an online only website (no brick and mortar storefront). I heard somewhere that if I create a Google Local Places account, this is not good for online shops. Something to do with it taking the place of my website's SERP ranking. Is this true? Are there any downsides to it? I know I would need to hide the location so people don't come to my house.

Bringing a Google+ business page and a Google+ Local (Places) page together
We have a Google+ business page @ <cite>https://plus.google.com/105699067779457680386</cite> (therefore the managers of that page log in with their personal Google accounts to use Google+ as the business page). We had/have a Google Places listing tied to our company Google account, and that does show up in Google+ Local. I simply would like to marry the two so they can live together in perfect harmony. But that does not seem straightforward at all. If I'm logged in with our company Google account, I am asked to "join" Google+, but I don't want our company to be a "person" on Google Plus (just a Business Page). If I'm logged in with my personal Google account, and switch to using Google+ as our business page, and then click to claim/edit our Google+ Local listing, that doesn't work because I'm not logged in under our corporate Google account. It's an Internet mystery. Mozzers, assemble!
