Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi guys,

We are currently setting up Google+ accounts for our website www.troteclaser.com. We'd like to use them to indicate authorship of our content. As we provide content in 10 different countries, we have to set up a Google+ account for every office location.

Here my questions: Do we have to set up two separate accounts - one for the authorship (for the person who wrote the texts) and another one for our office location (to link with Google places)? Or would a single (unpersonal) corporate account do the job, too?

What's your experience with this?

Hi,

Anyone got experience with Japanese Urls? I'm currently working on the relaunch of the Japanese site of the troteclaser.com and I wonder if we should use English or Japanese characters for the Urls.

I found some topics on the forums about this, but they only tell you that Google can crawl both without problems. The question is if there is a benefit if Japanese characters are used.

Hi Christy,

Thanks for the tipps. We wanted to make it easy for ourselves, but it didn't quite work out that way

The thing is that our authers do not have personal G+ accounts and I'm afraid just setting one up for them for the purpose of linking to it for authorship won't work either. I read that the accounts need a minimum of activity to be considered valid by Google.

I thought about claiming authorship with my personal G+ account as the author for all pages of the troteclaser.com, but I'm unsure if there will be issues as my account is in German while the troteclaser.com pages are available in all languages. What's your thought about this?
