It’s also a great lesson in how marketing on and offline has changed. Interestingly, especially in light of all the news about Facebook changing it’s algorithms, they gained a ton of fans, but people talking about this page actually declined. Is this an issue with Facebook or the fans?

We’ve mostly gotten comfy with the changes to our personal pages when Facebook went to the timeline model, but trust me, that was nothing compared to the changes you’re going to see for business. Many marketers have been practically drooling over all that potential ad space too, but Facebook is having none of that.

So you might think my position would be that Google+ is the be-all end-all social media network for business and people should be pitching their blogs and Facebook pages out the window in favor of Google+. This includes the CEO, the marketing team and your engineers. Are you ditching your Facebook page for a Google+ business page yet?

Businesses tout their understanding of the value of social currency and especially small business, for whom the playing field was leveled online by the accessibility of social sites like Twitter and Facebook. Many businesses have shifted to using social sites as customer support venues, marketing platforms and communities.

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.

Of course, we are all aware of the privacy issues now in the news about Facebook and other major networking sites. Now, not many companies harvest as much data as Google, Facebook, Twitter, and others, but we should still take these new rules as good practice. So does Google, Facebook, Twitter and so many others.

However, the majority are still only focusing on major social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.

Some CEO’s can’t create content either, and they let their marketing person do it for them. Others do everything from moderating forums and Facebook pages, T witter engagement and influencer outreach to creating e-books and blogging for the company. Is that content the real reflection of the brand and it’s value?

The network itself is reminiscent of a mix of the best features of FriendFeed , Facebook and a few other networks, and as Kit Eaton pointed out in her Google+ post on Fast Company the network seems positioned to take over from Foursquare , Instagram , Facebook and maybe even Twitter and Quora.

Identifying phrasing and keyword response can tell you a lot about how your messaging is working and your target market too. Great, cool, you’re on the right track. Why was that?

Lots of people will tell you ”Social Media Influencers” are the key to social media marketing but what does that really mean? Gather links for their Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Linkedin profiles at a minimum. Is influence based on number of connections? Klout , Peer Index or Kred score? A combination of all of the above?

If you are broadcasting location specific, from a conference or to market your restaurant, think about putting the location in the title. Hearts are relative to “likes” on Facebook. If you start the broadcast before you do, there won’t be a title showing on your broadcast. Lesson learned!). The most loved list.

I like to say Google+ combines the best of Twitter and Facebook on one network. With Google+ you can toss off a quick comment on a link you’ve shared and find thoughtful commentary building on it for days, in a threaded format just like Facebook and popular forums. 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.
