Google Pus Places, page and youtube issues. PLEASE HELP!!!
-
Ok I have a youtube channel, a page connected to that and I have a business listing but I cannot get all three to work together. Any ideas?
https://plus.google.com/+CentralsaddleryCoUk is the page (I want to ad the location to this one)
http://www.youtube.com/user/centralsaddleryvideo our youtube
The two above seem to work fine but the local listing below will not connect to the page or youtube.
https://plus.google.com/b/107598085314018001171/107598085314018001171/about?hl=en-GB
This has been driving me nuts for ages.

Hi Mark,
No, not stupid at all. Integration of Google's products is definitely a work in progress that has left tons of people confused! I hope the TCs in the Google forum may have some guidance for you. Good luck, and if you get an answer, I'd appreciate you coming back to update this thread with what you've learned.

I'm glad its not just me being stupid. I really want to make Google plus work for my business but Google seems set on making it hard for us.
Ill ask on the google forums. i already had a look but found nothing useful.
It just seems crazy that you can't combine every to have a neat and tidy setup.

Hi Mark,
No wonder this is driving you nuts. I'm not sure what you want to do can currently be done, and I've spent the last ten minutes trying to find recent documentation of this and am coming up without clear guidelines. It would be super if someone within our community has recently accomplished what Mark wants to do and can describe the process, or describe that it's not possible.
Mark, given the lack of apparent documentation of this from recent times, I think your best bet is to post your question in the Google And Your Business Forum in hopes that one of the TCs there will be able to dig up something that offers guidance here. Go to:
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/business
This is a search I did. Maybe you'll see something in it that I didn't notice:
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/business/youtube$20and$20google$2B$20local
You might also try:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/s/google%2B local youtube
I hope this offers some help, and I'm sorry not to have a clear document to point you to. It could be that I'm simply unaware of it.

Google Analytics Social Settings
Hi, I'm a bit confused about the actual purpose of the social settings in Admin > Property > Social Settings. I've read some blogs saying it just helps analyse traffic that has arrived from your social media pages. Then I've found other sources saying you should add your own domain in there so you can track likes and shares sent from your website to social media platforms. What do I actually need to put in there and how does it help my data? Thanks!

Getting Connections to Follow LinkedIn Company Page
I've just started a freelance contract with a client promoting their content over social media, primarily Twitter and LinkedIn. As I've started to manager their accounts, I noticed they have set up both a personal LinkedIn page under the company name as well as a Company Page. The "personal" account has 330 connections but the Company Page only has 17 followers. Has anyone had success with a good strategy for quickly and effectively promoting the Company Page to the personal connections? I'd like to actually migrate the connections over to the Company Page, which should be the primary focus. Thanks for any help.

Best Practices for apps.facebook.com pages
A client of ours has experienced a large drop in traffic (per GA) from apps.facebook.com referral source in the last 30 days. After a lot of searching, its apparent that there is not a lot of chatter on this topic. So this is a twofold topic..... 1. has anyone observed a drop in apps.facebook.com referrals lately as well? 2. does anyone have any best practices learning on optimizing these pages? Facebook guidance and content in general on the topic is virtually not existent. Google is still clearly indexing the url structure so its visible in search at least. https://www.google.com/#hl=en&sclient=psy-ab&q=%22apps.facebook.com

Is Anybody Outside of SEO Industry Getting ROI from Google+ ?? Tell the truth!
I have been watching Google+ and see lots of SEOs sharing ideas and enjoying their circles. However, I have not seen anything outside of the webmaster community that I would hold up as an example of business engagement - and certainly nothing that seems to be producing a good ROI for a business. It seems to me that everyone outside of the webmaster community is on FaceBook and doesn't give a hoot about Google+. And, since FaceBook has the massive amount of people why should I open an outpost in the poorly populated Google+? I am not looking for Google+ evangelist answers. Just looking to hear if anybody anywhere has found Google+ to be a better use of their time than FaceBook and working on your website. I do believe that using Google+ as an author verification platform is a good use of your time if you have valuable content - mainly because it helps your visibility in the SERPs. Beyond that I am looking for validation. Anybody want to point to something good happening or telling a success story? Thanks!

Google Plus 1 button appearance
Has anyone had issues with the creative control google is maintaining with the Plus 1 button. I have a client who is very strict on their design structure and wants to make the google button appear in style with their theme. Has anyone encountered this or knows a moderately easy solution besides hacking away? THanks!
