How to get started with G+
-
Hi
Im about to establish a G+ account, and i just want to know if anyone inhere has some insights that might be useful in that proces.
Its gonna be a company profile, and its important that its combined with our SEM-account.
Is there any pointers in order to do this, any good advices on how to create a profile?

Just know that you'll need to have a personal profile and a page profile to accomplish this.
Michelle Ross over at Search Engine Journal did a great post a few months ago on how to get started on Google+
That is a great start there but I think the best one I've seen for Businesses is by Marvin Shervington (marvinshervington.com) and he created a complete guide for Google+ for brands
You're question is kind of like asking "how do I get started in SEO" It's really hard to answer without giving you some sources first and when you have specifics then you can come back and ask those question and get better discussion.
In my opinion Google+ is Twitter, Facebook and Google combined. There are a lot of nuances with it and giving you one big overview is pretty tough. Read up on the resources I've provided, and others that you can search for and feel free to ask any specifics you have.

This is a great topic and I hope it gets some love. I am ashamed to admit I know very little about Google Plus. I consider myself very savvy when it comes to technology and social media, but this one has me slightly intimidated. I'm not sure why, but the format just seems confusing to me. Granted I'm sure if I sat down and spent a couple days on it I'd be off and running, but still I'd like to see some responses to this topic to give G+ noobs a little encouragement.

Is it possible to get demographic data for a certain section of the website and only that area and not the whole site? Tools? Analytics? Suggestion.
I have a /blog/ section of the site that we would like to have separate demographic data for. But I am unable to figure out the way to create it in a custom report. Is there steps I need to include?

SaaS to manage Several Google Places/G+ accounts
Hi, how are you? I have a client that is a company that has aproximately 30 franchises. For each franchise, I created a Google Places (now My Business) profile, and then for each profile I have a G+ profile. The problem is that I need a SaaS or a software that allows me to post in each of those profiles automaticaly, like Hootsuite (when I enter with the account I have registered the Places profiles, it catches the G+ profile of that person, not the GPlaces accounts). Do you know any? Thanks!

SEO relevance of Google+. Should we bother getting Google+?
I've read mixed results about the SEO benefit of having Google+ for your company. I'm sure that a very small % of my sites user base has Google+ so if we did implement Google+ into our site I don't think we would really have anyone following us...or in our circle or whatever they call it. So are you guys using Google+ for your business and if so, do you think it's worth it for me to if I know barely any of my users have Google+? Google really seems to be trying to plush Google+ for business, with replacing Google places with Google+ Business and requiring people to log into Google+ to rate businesses. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Will becoming a YouTube partner get me higher rankings on the site?
One of the branded channels I run has been offered to be apart of YouTube's Partnership program. Trick is - I don't necessarily want to see ads pop up for my videos, as I imagine the revenue is fairly small. I would be wiling to join the program if there is evidence that joining the program helps our rankings on YouTube. I imagine it may - as YouTube likely would give preference for partnered channels, partly due to ad/revenue opportunities for them, and partly because partners have obviously proven to have better content. What do you guys recommend?
