Google + under Google business domain email account
-
Hello there,
I have a quick and straight question and I am hoping to find answer here.
What do we do with a G+ profile that was set up through a business domain's email account that is used by more than one person? We want to use the company name, but we can't as it is considered personal email account although it is under business domain verified by Google. Is there a way that we ask Google to change it and allow us to use the name of the company or should we just deactivate it?
Thanks in advance!

Try putting your company name in the First and Last name and see what happens. Mine didn't work, so I just made up a first and last name and pretty much left it as is. It controls my youtube channel and a couple other things that I don't want an employee to have access to.

Hi Francisco,
Thanks for your response.
We know how to set up a company page and we already have one.
We are wondering what to do with the G+ profile that is associated with one of our main company emails info@..... We use Google business apps and we have a few company domain business accounts / emails and as you can imagine, just like for every gmail email, we can create a G+ profile. So, the questions is can we use it with the company name and is there an option Google will allow us to do this or should we just not activate it ?
Thanks!

If you want to set up a Google Plus Company page, it is just like setting up a Facebook Fan Page.
Here is how mine is setup:
francisco@AcmeCorp.com (Francisco's Google Plus Page)
joe@AcmeCorp.com (Joe's Google Plus page)
Acme Corp (Acme Corp's Google Plus Company Page)
The acme corp company page can have BOTH francisco and joe as administrators.

Is it worth keeping a decades-old domain that's merely 301 redirecting to the main domain?
Hi fellow Moz SEOs, We have a bigger client who we just did an SEO Site Audit for, and it was discovered that they have several domain names that are simply 301 redirecting to their main domain name. One of their domains in particular is decades old, and the client is asking if there is any value in keeping it (and the others), or simply leaving them as-is. Considering the domain age, does anyone have any recommendations? Much appreciated, Zack Barton

Switching from Google Plus Local to Google Plus Business
Greetings, We have a website design firm located in India. We wanted to target customers in our city who are looking for website design locally. And with google plus local and a few content marketing would get us into first page very soon because none in the competition is using social signals or even content marketing. BUT unfortunately from last month even though our Google Places is verified we cant verify our Google Local Plus page https://plus.google.com/b/116513400635428782065/ It just shows error 500. Its a bug and its been a year for people without it being addressed. So we are skeptical if our strategy would work without Google+. At the least we decided we would just make company local page and connect it with website. But it might not have effect as local. So we are still unsure which step to take either to wait for google to fix it.(feedbacks emails calls nothing worked) OR We start the process with Google Business Category.

Duplicate Sub-domains Being Indexed
Hi all, I have this site that has a sub-domain that is meant to be a "support" for clients. Some sort of FAQ pages, if you will. A lot of them are dynamic URLs, hence, the title and most of the content are duplicated. Crawl Diagnostics found 52 duplicate content, 138 duplicate title and a lot other errors. My question is, what would be the best practice to fix this issue? Should I noindex and nofollow all of its subdomains? Thanks in advance.

Changing Business Addresses
Anyone have a good local search "best practices" resource for advising a client who is changing business addresses (aside from cross your fingers). For example, order of updating local citations (website first, google places, others). Time frame for update to take effect? Other issues folks have faced in updating addresses? I regularly follow David Mihm, Mike Blumenthal, & Andrew Shotland, I was just curious what the Moz community might be able to add. Thanks.
