I continue to be asked about Google+ pages and what businesses should be doing about them.
My recommendation is that, at minimim, business owners should create a Google+ page for their business and let their current followers know through their website and other social network updates.
If you see a significant increase in the number of followers of your Google+ page, then you know it’s a channel where your prospects and customers are gravitating towards. If there is no increase in Google+ followers, then continue to publish in those channels where your followers are most responsive.
Here are some articles and resources from around the web about the recent Google+ update and what it means for your business:
