It’s been debated whether or not businesses should be utilizing Google+. Most businesses don’t want to bother with another social network, especially one that doesn’t seem to be getting used a whole lot. However, it’s not just any social network. It’s owned by Google, and Google has the most popular search engine in the world. Having a business page will only help your search rankings.
Today, Matt McGee, of SearchEngineLand.com discussed in his blog post reasons why you should be on Google+ and involved on Google+. A few reasons he highlighted:
- Fresh content matters: Google+ profiles with no posts within the last 72 hours don’t show up in the “Related People/Pages” section of Google’s search results
- Pages can matter more than profiles: Brand pages with a few thousand followers/circlers can appear in “Related People/Pages” ahead of individual profiles with a million or more followers/circlers
For those interested in learning more about how you can utilize Google+ for your business, feel free to download this guide:

Not many better ways to entice customers to your gas station than giving discounts on an expensive necessity like gas. There are five Zarco locations offering the special, three of them in Lawrence.
The great idea about having a Foursquare check-in special is the user has to enter the store to redeem the special. Therefore that customer may be inclined to make another purchase, like a smoothie. A great use of Foursquare to generate business and get people in the door.
So set your alarm and wake up early. Try not to commit any traffic violations in getting there quickly though. You wouldn’t want to get a ticket that would negate any discounts you might get.
