Google plus question
-
hi i have started using google plus after some great advice on here, i am not sure if i have done this correct but here is my url for my account, if anyone lets me know if this is the address i should be promoting.
https://plus.google.com/108369767071351734510/posts?hl=en-GB
my question is
Is it best to have my postings as public or as circles, very new to this so not sure how to have my posts set, any advice would be great
-
this is great advice, i am going to read your info on page using the rel="author" tag as i am not sure how to do this. also i need to find out about if we can put the company name on there so people can find us as they will not know who we are with a personal name.
i have content on the page but need to look at it and see what i can do to improve it

Hi Diane
I suggest you make your postings public. This will help people find you, and know if what you're sharing is interesting, so they can put you in their circles.
One of the most useful things you can do with your Google+ page is verify your site for authorship (so your image appears in Google search results).
To set this up you will need to do a couple more things:
1. Add your site under "Contributor to" section on your About page.
2. Make your +1s public.
3. Add links from your site to your Google+ page using the rel="author" tag. (This completes the circle so Google knows you are contributor to your site, and that your site verifies you as the author).
I wrote a short guide about setting up authorship, though you'll doubtless find many more on the web.
I would also advise you to add a bit more content to your page - images and info about yourself - then publish a few posts and start circling people you find interesting.
Good luck

My Question About SEO
I'm working on a new website and attempting to make it as efficient as possible. I've put it through a few scanners and have a few concerns. Is it true that having long titles is beneficial? My contact page, for example, is just titled contact, while my FAQ page is simply titled commonly asked questions. What about meta descriptions for each page? Do they still serve a purpose nowadays? Because my site title is a graphic header, having a big text title doesn't really suit with the style, the H1 tag is missing on a few pages. Is there any way to get around this?

2 Domains, 1 Brand - Content Marketing Strategy Question
I have a customer that has two separate locations for the same business on two different URLs (both connected via Landing Page). I cannot change this. They are in the powersports industry (snowmobiles, ATVs, motorcycles, dirt bikes, etc). The locations are about 10 miles from one another, essentially sell the same brands & products (there are 1 or 2 exceptions), have the same target audience (local & from out-of-state), and have the same goals. They currently rank #1 and #2 for their industry in their area. They now want a content marketing strategy. I face limitations with the CMS (no blog abilities and technical issues that are out of my control), and content marketing can really only consist of custom graphics & custom page creation. Typically, custom pages are utilized by creating Brand Pages describing the major brands to built out authority in those categories, and then try to branch out from there to create individual product-category pages with more unique content to answer more of a question based on the intent. I am very concerned about creating content that will be too similar between the two locations and will thus compete with the other location, so I am thinking I should devise a completely different strategy for 1 location over the other. Is that a good idea? I think with the smaller location, I choose the typical route of creating brand pages, product pages, etc, and then with the bigger location, try to focus on unique content such as buyer's guide, local SEO ideas about the area, FAQs, testimonials, etc. Thoughts/ideas?

Simple Blog Content Question
Which is better? To write my own blog post or, (with permission) use other high DA content on my blog. I'll probably do both, but I'm very curious as to what the search engines prefer or which is better for seo. Thanks in advance!
