Google Pus Places, page and youtube issues. PLEASE HELP!!!
-
Ok I have a youtube channel, a page connected to that and I have a business listing but I cannot get all three to work together. Any ideas?
https://plus.google.com/+CentralsaddleryCoUk is the page (I want to ad the location to this one)
http://www.youtube.com/user/centralsaddleryvideo our youtube
The two above seem to work fine but the local listing below will not connect to the page or youtube.
https://plus.google.com/b/107598085314018001171/107598085314018001171/about?hl=en-GB
This has been driving me nuts for ages.

Hi Mark,
No, not stupid at all. Integration of Google's products is definitely a work in progress that has left tons of people confused! I hope the TCs in the Google forum may have some guidance for you. Good luck, and if you get an answer, I'd appreciate you coming back to update this thread with what you've learned.

I'm glad its not just me being stupid. I really want to make Google plus work for my business but Google seems set on making it hard for us.
Ill ask on the google forums. i already had a look but found nothing useful.
It just seems crazy that you can't combine every to have a neat and tidy setup.

Hi Mark,
No wonder this is driving you nuts. I'm not sure what you want to do can currently be done, and I've spent the last ten minutes trying to find recent documentation of this and am coming up without clear guidelines. It would be super if someone within our community has recently accomplished what Mark wants to do and can describe the process, or describe that it's not possible.
Mark, given the lack of apparent documentation of this from recent times, I think your best bet is to post your question in the Google And Your Business Forum in hopes that one of the TCs there will be able to dig up something that offers guidance here. Go to:
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/business
This is a search I did. Maybe you'll see something in it that I didn't notice:
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/business/youtube$20and$20google$2B$20local
You might also try:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/s/google%2B local youtube
I hope this offers some help, and I'm sorry not to have a clear document to point you to. It could be that I'm simply unaware of it.

Twitter Help
Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask a question on Twitter. Something has perplexed me, both these tweets contain videos and both have been RT on my account On one you have to click into the BBC tweet to play the video, the other straight away plays and credits the original source. (see pics). When the video plays in the 2nd example you always get more interaction, RT's, likes etc compared to a RT where you have to click again. How does this happen? I've managed to do it once but cannot replicate it, even with the same tweet!! I'm sure it's something totally obvious. Here's how they look (images) http://imgur.com/a/G6ods

Company FB Page Automatically Friend-Requesting Admins' Contacts
Hola, So today we added 3 or 4 admins to our company FB page. Our company FB consists of a 'profile' and that 'profile' has create a FB 'page' for the business. All of a sudden, the profile (not the company 'page') started to get a new friends. We thought this was weird as we weren't using this for promotion, we were using the company FB page. Anyway, when we dug a little deeper, we found the profile had automatically sent friend requests to all of the admins' contacts (around 2,000 people!). When we checked the friend request page, we realised we can't cancel all the requests, they have to be done individually! Why would FB do this? It might not be so bad if it was actually inviting the admins' contacts to 'like' the business page, but it's just adding them to the main profile's friend list. The only solution we can find is to deactivate/delete the profile and keep the company page with all the admin attached. Any ideas on this one? It's very weird and now it just looks like our fleldgling business is spamming people! Cheers, Lewis

Duplicate Content issue: Amazon book review & company blog
Can my site be penalized for including a book review verbatim in my blog that I also post on Amazon? What are the steps I need to take? I have written a book review that I want to post on Amazon. I am also planning to create a blog post and include the exact text of the review within the post which I will then also promote on my social channels. What do I need to watch out for in terms of duplicate content? Is there a sequence I should follow? We have the rel=canonical tag on our site which is WordPress.

Moving from Google place to Google+ - problems, problems
Hi, I'm just moving a business listing from Google Places to Google+ I have a couple of problems. (1) The verification postcard has turned up with the wrong address on it (different to the address on Google Places!) - can I alter this once I've verified Google+ page or would I need to go through postcard verification again? (2) I see the categories in Google+ are far less flexible (and appropriate) for the business I work for, so I'm thinking that may cause problems. Has anybody else experienced this same problem? Thanks in advance for your help 🙂

Can You Aggregate Likes from Pages on Your Site to Your Homepage?
I think the Facebook widget is great for social proof if you have a lot of people who like you. (the widget that shows faces of people who like you) Let's say that you create a resource that gets 100 likes. Do those "Likes" only count at the page level or can they be aggregated into a total "Likes" count that you can show on your home page and on the Facebook widget? Or are "Likes" in the Facebook widget only for people who like your Facebook page? (not those who "Like" your site).

Google 'Author' tag question (Guest Blogging)
Hi, It seems like im seeing more and more about the Author tag, its now in Webmaster Tools and Google+. If your guest blogging, is it a good idea to include the Author link back to your Google+ account? If your Google+ account is also connected to your website and Google confirms they can see the connection does the Author links help with ranking when you push them back to the connected Google+ account?
