It was just a few days ago, when I remembered how Google promised to integrate some more elegant way to promote your business than with personal profiles/accounts. I didn’t want to wait for official release of Pages feature and I was tempted to sign up with my related Google Apps account.
Google Apps support
At that time however, Google Apps accounts weren’t supported for linking up with Google+. Now, it’s already a several days when Google Apps accounts are supported – if you want to use it, first you need to allow Google Talk and Google+ in your GApps domain administration.
- login to your Google Apps domain administration
- Organization & Users
- select Services tab (next to Users tab)
- switch Google Talk and Google+ to ON
When you enable G+ for your domain, just be sure that it’s more productive than distracting ;]
Creating a Page
In case you haven’t noticed already (or don’t have Google+ account), creating new Page is pretty simple and straight-forward.
Google+ users can visit Your Pages to manage and/or create new Pages; and as it seems, users not signed on Google+ (those who don’t have a personal profile) can’t register new Pages AFAIK – but maybe that’ll change in time.
Thoughts?
Personally, I’m really glad Google finally implemented this Page feature. I’m confident to say that this move will push G+ to a higher level by many means. It was definitely missing, but not anymore.
So.. Do you have some more detailed informations on the whole Google+ thing, some tricks and tweaks for Pages or some freshly created you’d like to share?
