Facebook page vs Facebook place
-
Forgive this question, but I've always wondered is there a difference between a Facebook Page and Facebook Place page? What if a business has both?
Thanks

See this article re merging Facebook Page and Places

I would keep both, I wouldn't stop whats already working.

thanks,
I just started helping out a friends local salon and spa business and they have about 500 plus "likes" on their fackbook page...however I just was looking into facebook "deals" which is only for facebook places page. I'm trying to decide if I should start converting everything over to a Places page because I feel like they would get more benefit from it (check ins, deals, etc). Would you agree?
-
I'd definitely recommend a Facebook Business Page, not only can it provide a Social Buzz platform but if done correctly, can provide traffic that converts (either via direct traffic or Facebook Storefront)
-
So long as you have content for a Facebook page its a great resource. I have seen people capture email leads from facebook pages and promote there services. It really depends what your after.
-
Thanks for the response. Would you recommend having both?
-
A facebook page allows you to list your own content on the page. Facebook place allows you to actually mark down your location of business storefronts so people can check into it.
Thats the only difference.

Google+ Brand Page in Knowledge Graph
We've been unsuccessfully trying to get our brand's Google+ page listed in the Knowledge Graph for our brand. I believe that our markup on our website is correct. Can anyone advise on why we can't get this to pull up in the knowledge graph? Google+ page: https://plus.google.com/+Tacticalgearcom Knowledge graph for TacticalGear.com: https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome-psyapi2&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8&q=tacticalgear.com&oq=Tac&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j0l2j69i57j0l2.2831j1j7

International Social Media Pages
If your going to target multiple countries but who have same language (such as US & UK) which of the main social media accounts should you set up a country specific version for ? I know some like Google+ allow for sub-pages/listings for different localities/outlets etc so I presume you only need the one G+ company page (but pls confirm if you agree or not ?). I keep hearing peeps say set up country specific Twitter and FaceBook pages, do you agree ? and what about other main social sites like Pinterest & LinkedIn etc ? Thanks Dan

Same posts on facebook and google+. Is this a problem?
I plan to publish same posts on facebook and google+. As they are in 10 different languages, I would rather not make modifications for facebook and google+ respectively. Do you see any problems with this? Do you think it matters whether I first publish on google+ or first on facebook? Any problem if I publish posts on one social media account which I already published in another social media account for another company of mine some months ago? thanks

Places for business vs. Google+ personal profile
I am still trying to figure out Places and Google+. Could someone please help me understand how my Google+ profile (that it attached to and can be accessed through my gmail account) interacts with my Places page (which requires my gmail credentials to administer, but can only be accessed through the Places page itself)? Do my posts on my personal profile enhance my Places listing? Any help would be appreciated.

Facebook Shares/Likes: Does the users location matter for location specific keywords?
Hi, Basically if I was going after a location specific keyword, so lets say 'dry cleaners london' would Facebook likes/shares from users' who's location settings in Facebook are set to London work better then say someone in a different country or does it hold the same weight social signals wise?

Moderate blog comments Yes/No? Facebook comment plugin?
I was reading outbound marketing and they suggest that a good blog "does not" moderate comments. I have always taken the moderate approach, but their thought was this inhibits a conversation from taking place on the blog. I am wondering what thoughts others may have on this and its potential positive and negative impacts, both SEO and in general. Also I am thinking about using a Facebook plugin with my blogposts. I think this may be a good way to help get social visibility... Has anyone tried this yet?
