I’ve noted before that the Google+ Business pages may not be for all brands, some have built their Google+ pages and done quite well, but maybe not well enough to ax that Facebook page just yet. Search Marketers must know the details to properly advise clients. Unlike Facebook or Twitter, Plus is owned by Google.

The only way to know if your page has new comments is to browse the feed for the page. Pages can’t comment or even +1 a conversation unless that person is following the page. They participated in the land rush to get their Google+ pages defined and then many of them went right back to traditional marketing methods.

Lots of people will tell you ”Social Media Influencers” are the key to social media marketing but what does that really mean? Do they get comments and do people share their content through social media? Gather links for their Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Linkedin profiles at a minimum.

For a while you’re addicted to watching who re-tweets you, mentions your brand on their blog or says something about you on a Facebook page. Identifying phrasing and keyword response can tell you a lot about how your messaging is working and your target market too. Pay attention to who is listening to the negative comment.

Especially PR and marketing professionals who are watching social media speed up the reaction time of their customers to light speed.

I like to say Google+ combines the best of Twitter and Facebook on one network. The quick link or the witty comment shared on Twitter has the shelf life of maybe a couple of minutes before it’s buried in the Twitter stream. Google+ is worth the effort. But nobody uses Google+.

There’s a deep, dark secret that the social media marketers don’t want you to know. You can have the biggest following on Twitter and Facebook and Google+ , the best videos on Youtube and a constant flow of repins on Pinterest and still not make a single sale. It’s how you use it that counts.
