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

I was actually looking for articles, how-to-videos, resources, and suggestions.

Andy, any ideas?

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?

Best practices to rank a new website that does not produce much content.
Hi What would be the best practice for ranking a new site .. lets say a business site that does not have a blog to produce regular content in it. Building backlinks are not just the options when these days people are all focused in content marketing. And specially, when you are competing against big competitors. Big competitors are of course getting their contents published on bigger sites since they are already established. No one will talk about you when you are new in the market. And you still need to bring up your site to people and SEO is the only option for that. What would you suggest ? Thanks

Should I thank a share on Google Plus (as a business)?
Hi, As all that manage their social channels, I often track some of the posts and how people interacted with them. My question is quite simple: As a business page - Should I thank someone for sharing my post?
Branding | | BeytzNet
I assume it would make them feel worthy and will probably cause them to share again... However, will my page's followers see that I thanked someone (and will doing so annoys them if I now thank 10 different people)...? Who sees a comment my page puts on another person's share? Thanks0 -
Google + Brand Page for Multiple Locations
We have had our Google Places pages up and running now for a bit, and we are looking to start our Google + Brand page. What is the best way to handle a Brand page with multiple locations? Create a page for each location so we can connect them to their Places equivalent? Create one overall brand page and not connect it to the Google Places? A lot of the information I am seeing is around a year out of date with Google saying "something is coming" but no updates since then, so how have others in similar situations handled it?

Google Authorship
Hey Guys, For about a few days now, my google authorship photo no longer appears in search results. Also, I am unable to access my google places page, as every time I try I get an error from google (error #500). The places page still works, but I cannot log in as an administrator. I have no idea why this is happening, as the rich snippets tool indicates that everything is fine and dandy. I have also made no changes to the structure of the site. Can someone please explain why I am encountering these problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have to have a Google+ profile page for a person before you can build a Google+ brand page?
There was some debate at MozCon 2012 about this issue. I have my personal Google+ page which I didn't want attached to the brand of one of the sites I manage. I saw no other way to create a new Google+ page for this brand except to create a new profile under a different gmail account. The problem is, I had to put in my personal name to create the profile (you can't put in a business name, Google won't accept it), so now I have two "Dana Tan" author pages in Google+, the second one is where I built the page for this separate business "Celebrate Communion." Unfortunately, this has muddied the waters because people are following me in both places (it's fragmented my circles). I would like to add customers who are already on Google+ to my business pages circles, but the business page won't do it. Is it possible to build a Google+ business page without all of this brand confusion? If so, can you send me directions? I have found nothing online that says you don't need a profile to do a brand page. Also, once the page is built, what is the best way for me to reach out to customers with google accounts? I don't see a good way to do that on businesses pages either. On my profile page I can load all the emails into my contacts list, but then those contacts can only be added to my profile page and not the brand page. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Dana

Best Way To Distribute Infographics?
Hello, I am looking to get into the benefits of link-building through using info-graphics, and I wondered if anyone knew of a good info-graphic distribution service. I know there has surely got to be a service out there like Prnewswire or PrWeb, only “designed for info graphics” instead of press releases. However, as of yet I have not been able to find anything. I am aware that there are info graphic directories out there and forums like myblogguest that allow you to post info graphics, and of course pinterest type sites. However, I have not found a dedicated info graphic syndication service yet. Does anyone know of a good one? Or perhaps just have other good advice with their success of marketing info-graphics?
