Help with google+ Please??
-
Hello, we have recently created a google + page.
We have entered our URL however i do not think that it is set up correctly.
https://plus.google.com/u/0/110174750926862024398/
There is no button on the header to follow or to +1
there is no mention of our URL within the header, and i have found on many others the url is displayed, linked with a tick and a little globe next to it.
i am presuming that i need to link the google plus page to my webiste and verify it some how? But i am struggling to figure out how too do this. can any one help or shed any light on this? Thanks

A little lower than you have on your image you should see a link page with "your website" and a little tick next to it the tick means its been linked.
You can test here - https://support.google.com/plus/answer/3402542?rd=1

I have managed to do all that but i cannot understand why it has not linked. it shows our URL but not as a hyperlink?

Hi Reece,
Did you make sure to out your G+ number where it says yourpageID?

Link to your website from your Google+ page's profile.
To edit your page profile:
-
Make sure you're on the Google+ page you'd like to edit.
-
Click the profile icon .
-
Click Edit Profile.
-
Click Website. You'll know it's editable when the color of the section changes to blue.
On the "about" section you want to edit the links section if you want find it don't worry edit any of the boxes then you will see tabs at the bottom (circles) Second in from the right is one called links you can add your website there
I've attached a screen grab to help my point. I hope this clears it up a bit.
Good luck!

There is no section that says website? or "edit profile"?
I click "edit" on my google plus page and it brings up a box to edit the content...
People, story, work, education... but no section called website.
Its been bugging me for days!

Counting unique landing pages in Google Analytics: social vs organic channels
Remember the technique Rand posted for counting the unique indexed landing pages on a site? http://moz.com/blog/indexation-for-seo-real-numbers-in-5-easy-steps I'm using Google Analytics to compare this result for the "social" channel vs. the "organic search" channel. The idea is to see whether social or search delivers people to more unique landing pages. I would expect organic search to yield a significantly higher count, due to long tail searches for relatively obscure terms. We have an archive of over 500k pages that Google could be indexing, even if only a fraction of a percent of those might be getting social mentions. But that's not what the numbers show -- I'm seeing roughly 10% higher numbers for the Social channel than for Organic Search. Again, I'm counting unique landing pages here, not the total pageviews or visits. If anyone else here is monitoring these metrics, please chime in with your results. What's the baseline expectation for a large website with hundreds of thousands of pages of issue-centric user-generated content? Should search traffic provide 2x more landing page exposures than social? 5x? 10x? or 0.9x, as in my case? In short, I believe these numbers are pointing to an indexing/ranking problem following a recent site redesign.

Opinions/advice on Blog posts please
I'm an intern at an Accounts Software Company. I'm doing SEO for them. As part of this I've recently started blogging. I'm doing this in an effort to increase traffic to the blog, and try to shift content focus away from Startup Methodology and increase focus on the product..I've had some success with it, in terms of increased Domain Authority and keyword ranking. At the same time, Keyword ranking can suddenly drop for some keywords, closely related to the ones I'm trying to rank for. The further difficulty is, that nobody wants to read about Accounting subjects. I've tried to make my posts as interesting and as valuable as possible.I'm still having trouble gauging whether I'm going about things the right way.Please take a look at some of the posts I've done. If anyone had any critique/advice I'd really appreciate it.. Here it is: http://www.bullethq.com/blog/category/accounts/

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?

Google Autor Profiles in Big Companies
I work for a big company and they want to use the google autor tag. The goal is to get the rich snippets and better rankings in the future from having a trusworthy autor for each topic building up followers basically. The problem is that the company does not want to pay employees to build up their own autor profiles/trust since an employee could leave the company any time and we would have to start from scratch building another autor profile. Now I know that google only wants real people in google plus bla bla ... bla bla ... How do you guys handle this problem? I thought of having our autors sharing one made up autor profile which is owned by the company.

Does Twitter and Facebook feeds help SEO
For a new site, I want to feed in Twitter updates and Facebook posts onto the page. I regularly update these feeds. I'm using PHP to directly integrate with the two sites API and grab the data. Is this a good idea? Will it help SEO as its fresh content? Is it a good or bad idea to have a social media feed page on the site that grabs content from these sites?

Google Plus for Website - Should the button be available on the homepage or just blog posts and other sticky content?

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?
