Since the recent (and partial) launch of Google+, many of our clients have approached us for advice on setting up brand pages for their business, much as is the common practice with Facebook.<\/p>\n

Our advice is to wait. Google has stated that they are coming soon<\/a>, so we would suggest that you hold out for the real deal. We don’t advise setting up another user account on Google to try to make a business page now, as you will likely run into problems when you want to use actual Business pages.<\/p>\n

Trust us on this one. Better to wait. And frankly, few people understand or get much use out of the service yet, so you’re not missing out.<\/p>\n

What we do think is a good idea is to go ahead and add the Google +1 button to your pages, alongside the Twitter and Facebook buttons you may already have. It’s a relatively simple change that could start driving traffic and, potentially, helping your ranking in Google.<\/p>\n

When we have a more complete picture on Google+ Brand Pages, we’ll be sure to post an update here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
