Merge google plus and google plus business
-
Hi guys
While logged in to my Google account Ive noticed we have 2 Google plus pages.
https://plus.google.com/103609762965753667153/posts
https://plus.google.com/b/112981948934843525105/112981948934843525105/posts
Both accessed through the same email login. One has different posts than the other!!
Is there a way to merge both of these? AmI right in thinking one is a personal profile and the other is a business one? We have multiple authors for our blog and each has their own google plus page and correct authorship set up etc but having these 2 pages is more work to manage.
Any ideas?
ThanksRobert

I actually just had that same situation come up, and this is what I found:
"The new tool, which is a part of the company's Google Takeout data-liberation service, allows users to elect a master Google+ account and transfer circles and other information to one main profile, instead of having two separate accounts. For those that make the transfer, you will only be able to log in with the email address associated with the primary Google+ profile."

Thanks James,
I guess every time i blog on the main website I'll have to update both profile and business page manually.
Thanks for your reply.

From the looks of it, you seem to be right, one is a Google plus page for your business i.e. https://plus.google.com/112981948934843525105/about. The other one is a Google plus profile for that login which you are using.
There is no way to merge both the profile as both are different entities. The best way would be to make your personal profile under your name to avoid ambiguity and use only the page to promote your business. You can also share the posts made on the page on your personal profile.
Hope this helps.

Google instantly suspends Google+ local listing of brand new company
I just tried to create a Google+ listing for a client. It's a brand new company. As soon as I submit the listing, I get an error message: "Google has suspended your page due to quality issues." There is no content on the listing, no website, etc. Just their NAP. All I can guess is their business address or phone number is on a blacklist due to some previous tenant/owner. Does Google keep a blacklist of addresses and/or phone numbers? Any other ideas?

How to get my forum to be listed on Google in the Discussions section?
I'm running several community sites with forums (for example http:// www.finalstitch.co.uk). All of those sites have a forum section like http://http://www.finalstitch.co.uk/forum/ So far Google didn't recognize the forum. When I search for the site and click the Discussions filter on the left, no forum topics from my site show up. What should I do to change that? Thank you. 20110616-gu1beph7p673x1jkgahy1q63r.jpg
