Should I use a Google Plus page or Google Plus for my business?
-
I am looking to write regular good quality blog posts about the niche subject my business is in.
Should these blog posts come from a Google Plus page or my personal Google Plus profile?
These blog posts will feature on our company website.
How does that effect Google Authorship etc...
Thanks

I have to agree with Rich. I do the same thing. My company page is linked to the site and I am setup as the author using Rel author. I see both my company and my authorship listed when running third party tools.

Are you posting the articles on your site? if so i believe you can probably do both here, the Business account can be linked to the website and you can also promote the posts through here, and you could use Rel author to associate the article to your personal account in order to build a reputatuion as an authority. If you will have multiple writers contributing that may move on then maybe using rel publisher and focusing on building the brand reputation may be better.

Spammy Facebook Page Penalty
In general search, I've noticed a handful of businesses who's facebook pages outrank their websites by a lot. Whenever I've looked into it, usually the FB pages have a bunch of spammy links, whereas the website (that isn't ranking well) doesn't. However, I am curious of two things: 1. Are FB pages like the ones I'm describing somewhat "immune" to penalties because their DA is so high? 2. Does this strategy end up hurting the business's website, if there's a link to it from the spammy FB page? Thanks, Ruben

Facebook Pages - Best to have one page or multiple pages when a company has multiple locations?
I'm working with a business that has multiple locations (13) in several different states. Is it best practice to have one central FB page for the company and/or separate location pages? It's for a self storage company that does not have one central phone number, so each location would have separate information listed on the page. They do have a central website with different pages for each location. I'd love to hear the communities thoughts on the best way to handle this.

Are Facebook page updates indexed in Google search?
I seem to remember an update where Google said it was going to include Facebook page updates into Google search, but perhaps that was a deal that fell through? If updates ARE appearing in Gooogle search, how do I troubleshoot a Facebook page where they are not?
