13. Build out your personal Google+ profile and begin forming
connections via Google+ circles in order to develop your
individual authority beyond your Google+ Page and
Google+ Local page.
Get in the habit of posting updates and connecting with
followers on your Google+ Page.
Encourage customers at your local business to leave
reviews on your new Google+ Local page, although they’ll
need to have active Google accounts to leave feedback.
Email all of your newsletter subscribers who signed up with
Gmail accounts and ask that they “+1” your Google+
properties and leave reviews on your pages.
14. Use a phone number in your Google+
Local listing that contains the area code of
the city you’re in, as proximity is a major
factor used in the local ranking algorithms.
Minimize keyword usage in your business
title, as extra words here can result in data
center mismatches between your business
name and keyword-optimized title.
Use your “Contact” or “Location” page in
the “Website” field, as these particular
landing pages tend to have stronger
geographic signals.
Incorporate target keywords into the
“Description” and “Category” fields of your
listing, while still clearly articulating your
business’s objective for readers.
Upload as many pictures as possible in
order to make your profile as appealing as
possible to new visitors.
15. • Get a page
• Get in as many circles as possible
– Put in signature, on business card, above fold
on website
• Stuff page with keywords
• Get a +1 button
17. "From my perspective, Google+
is to Facebook and Twitter what
Macintosh is to Windows: better,
but fewer people use it, and the
pundits prophesy that it will fail.”
