Best Resources for taking Facebook and Google Plus to the next level
-
Hello,
I'm doing some research on Facebook and Google Plus. I have more experience with Facebook.
I'm going to do my own research, but what do you guys think is the best articles or videos for taking Facebook and Google Plus to the next level?
My goals are to engage and promote for Ecommerce and Informational sites. Low budget.
Thanks,
Bob

For now, let's just say you have Ecommerce sites that you are promoting via Facebook. I'm not looking for anything high budget, very very low budget. This is just to compliment an Ecommerce site.
I just want to know if I'm missing things. So far we've just been very helpful to our audience, and promote our content at times. We seem to gradually build (less than 1000) likes doing this and having the Facebook like button on our home page. I've done some Facebook campaigns but we are so busy that we don't have time to make videos just for Facebook. We can promote the welcome videos and that's about it.
Just wondering about little things I don't know, without dumping a bunch of resources into Facebook. Our one new site is very low on backlinks, which is why I wanted to promote at least something on Google Plus in means of getting a link back from Google, and I would put enough time in it to draw in some followers.

Hi Bob,
Is there a reason that you want to also target G+? I hear many differing reports on successes people have on here, but if you know there is a good community that you want to break into on there, then go for it.
In terms of best articles, where do you start - Facebook marketing is a huge subject with so many guides on how to get the best from it, but most agree that Videos get the best successes.
Are you looking to promote a particular brand or is this just something you need to gather more information on?

Rep Management with Google+ > Help Needed
My client, Pareto Law, have set themselves up with a Google Local Business listing:
Branding | | AndrewAkesson
https://plus.google.com/+paretolaw, and when searching for the Pareto Law brand this page appears a bit like a site-link under the main search result. I've noticed that other companies, such as moz.com, have their G+ page ranking seperately on page 1 of the SERPs. This is especially important for my client, as we're trying to push down other sites rankings for our brand. In an ideal world I'd want only their twitter, G+, linkedin, & facebook pages ranking amongst wikipedia entries and the like, as opposed to forums discussing my client. The question is, are Pareto Law able to set themselves up with a G+ business page as well as the G+ local listing page they presently have. Is that an acceptable setup, or are you supposed to have just one or the other? I'm struggling to differentiate between the 2.0 -

Google Maps Address Change
Below is an email from a former client. He is a personal trainer and his wife is a personal trainer and therapist. They used to operate out of their home. But now they have another location for their business. My questions: Will the address change work? How long will it take ? Is there anything more they can do? We've come across an interesting problem in the last couple of weeks. It took a while to figure out what was going on, but I think I've found the source. When one searches 'xxxx Athletic' on google maps (a very common way to find businesses as you know), the address that comes up is xxxxxxxxx (our home). Clients are coming to our house rather than the gym. Luckily we're only a few mins away by car, so they aren't late once they figure out what has happened. We need to change it to our new business address. I have tried to do this via Google Places, and thought I was successful this morning, but alas the listing is still our house. Perhaps it will take a few days to update, but in the meantime I have added a page to my personal Google+ profile with the proper address info. If you happen to know anyway to help us that would be great.

Google+ Vanity Urls: Brand vs Keyword
We have recently been assigned a Google+ vanity URL for our Google page. By default, Google has assigned to us our top performing non-branded keyword. (Probably roughly twice the highly targeted search volume of our brand) My question is: Should I go with my BRAND NAME as my Google+ vanity url, or should I go with my TOP KEYWORD as my Google+ vanity url?

Facebook Like my website or fan page??
Should I want people facebook liking my website or my fan page? Is there a way to link the two? Here is my dilemma... People liking my website will obviously have an effect on rankings within bing and google possibly. BUT - People liking my fan page will allow me to engage with them in the future about givaways, sales and so on. I'm stuck, is there a way to link these? Or if not, which do you recommend?
