How to Create a Google+ Page to Market Your App

November 8th, 2011

Google+ just rolled out pages for businesses over the last 24 hours. While Google+ doesn’t have the user base that Facebook does, it’s really important to have a Google+ page for your app or business for a number of reasons:

  1. Indexing. Remember that Google is the number one search engine. A product that has a page within Google’s Google+ system has another search result, another point of interest, another way to be found.
  2. Many ‘techies’ are on Google+ and those are often the people who have Android phones.
  3. Engagement. Facebook fans only see some of your stream, only engage with some of it at best. On Google+, the connection is stronger. Every post invites comments.

Creating a page is easy. Simply go to http://Plus.Google.com, login, and look for the bottom right hand corner of the page. You’ll see a button that says Create a Google Plus Page. Click it.
