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?

Link to your website from your Google+ page's 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!

Hello, thank you for your reply. I have followed the steps on that link you sent me and i am still having problems...
Update your site's home page by adding a link to your Google+ page, like this:

Link to your website from your Google+ page's profile.

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!

You want this number -110174750926862024398 which is your Google+ id and if from what I gather you want a +1 on your site you want this Find us on Google+

I understand Authorship is Dead, but here's a question on the Google+ Profile
I guest write for some blogs, as well as several blogs I manage myself. What is the correct usage of the "Contributor to" field and the "Links" field? Contributor to: The overall blog itself and; Links: To individual blog posts themselves? Or the reverse? Thank you!

Should rel=publisher tags (pointing out at Google+ Business page) only go on the homepage?
Hello, I've just read... “Publisher tags should only go on the most significant page of your site, usually the homepage.” Is this correct?

Is it possible to modify the default social sources in Google Analytics?
In the newest Google Analytics there's a section called 'Social' which tracks traffic from FB, Twitter and other social sites. For some reason it doesn't include Instagram (which is the one that matters to me, though I'm sure there are many others that it doesn't include either.) Is there a way to modify that and add Instagram as a social source?

How many google+ authors is too many?
I've worked with a few sites with multiple google+ authors. rel=author works well and have no complaints. If you have a site with user generated content, would Google ever accept rel=author for every user we have a Google+ account for? Is 100 too many? 1000? 10,000? Anyone with big sites out there care to share your experience? Thanks!

Adult dating site. How can I get people to share content on facebook or google plus..
I am working on http://www.top-10-dating-reviews.com an adult dating review website. I want to build a presence on social networks so have set up twitter, google plus, and a facebook page. As I understand it retweets, like, shares etc... Play a significant part in seo. Therefore I want to get as many shares etc as possible. My initial idea was to create a fan page on facebook and pay to promote it on facebook gaining likes on the fan page. Will likes on the fan page impact the main site? I would imagine not? However I can see how someone visiting the main site and liking a post would have a positive effect on rankings. The problem I've come into is facebook won't run the ads as the page is adult so they won't accept paid ads. If I add a post to the facebook page how can I get it in front of people to share or like it? Equally how can I get google plus shares? I'm new to social and am unsure of how I should proceed? Especially as facebook considers the page adult. Finally how important is social. I've read it can get short term wins and optimised posts can appear at the top of search results but don't stay there long. Link building is still the long term strategy?

Share This Count Vs Google Analytics - Why the difference?
We use the Share This facebook & twitter widgets on blog posts. Share this auto tags it in Google Analytics so we can see share count with in the analytics interface. Viewing the blog post I see the share counts as a lot higher than google analytics reports. Does anyone know why the count would be different?
