The importance of having a profile in Google +

It´s becoming more common that companies create and configure a public profile in Google +, but what advantages can it provide when making such profile?

Google is creating its own social network Google+, attempting this way to compete directly with Facebook or Twitter and overtake them.It currently has around 250 million users and expect a significant growth through 2012.

Besides, this network counts with the possibility to create the known company sites, aimed to obtain a greater benefit of the same.

 

If we decide to create a company site in Google + our first step will be creating a user profile. Currently, any company page on Google + has a profile of these features.

 

What can you do with a profile in Google+?
The same as in all other social networks, the main objective within Google is the share.

Sharing experiences, thinkings, pictures, work... and to be able to share it is necessary to relate with the rest of the network.

 

Google + provides different tools to achieve this:

• Circles, allows the users to categorize the rest of the users with whom they establish a contact relationship within the network. They are equivalent to Facebook friend groups or Twitters lists.
• Hangouts, places to facilitate video-chats with members of our circles.

 

How to create a company profile in Google +?

First step to do, as mentioned before, is to create a users profile.

 

Once created the profile and and logged within the Google network you should direct to the following site https://plus.google.com/u/0/pages/create#pages/create.

 

You have to follow the established steps and fill in all the requested information about the company.

 

Many are the companies who already have joined this network, such as car rental in Alicante companies, or service  of car parking at Madrid Airport or important hotels in Barcelona and other destinations, and most important Airline companies in Europe...

What advantages brings a company page in Google +?
In addition to all the advantages that a users profile provide in Google +, it main advantage is that it incorporates automatically into the company within Google´s search network.

 

They say that Google prioritizes in it search for the natural positioning the +1 for who has a company page in Google + and besides of indexing automatically all the publications that are made about the company profile in their network search.

 

Not only that, but also a profile of these features can be completely integrated with the rest of other tools that Google has for the company. A clear example like the integration of Google Maps and Google Local within the company profile, where all the information about a certain company that until now was only available in Google Maps is now also available in the profile of Google +.

Many people don´t like travelling by plane. Some of them because they feel panic to fly, others just because of the fact of breaking their daily monotony. Either way, here are some tips that will relax you when having to catch a plane at Barajas airport.


Basic tips before catching a plane
Think about the time you will need to get to the airport, most airports are on the outskirts of the cities, Barajas for example is just 14km away from Madrid city. Airline companies always recommends to be at the airport at least 2 hours before departure. It´s advisable to add to this also the time you need to arrive to the airport.
Deciding how to go to the airport is one the thing that makes us really nervous. Loaded with luggage and having to take the metro, train or bus for example is not very advisable for our nerves. The best option is hiring a airport car parking at Madrid airport and leave our vehicle parked at the airport. Same way, when we come back from our trip we will have our vehicle at the airport parking waiting for us and ready to drive directly to our house.

Once you arrive at the airport inform yourself when you have to embark, by going directly to the correspondent airlines check-in desk where they will inform you at what time your flight embarks and which gate you will need to go too.

Go to the pre-boarding area at the predicted time. Remember that you will have to pass through the metal detector. Don´t get nervous when it starts beeping, mainly it is just due to the belt buckle or because of some trim on your shoes.

Relax yourself in the "Free Shop" area, enjoy the stores while waiting to embark, but do not forget the number of your boarding gate that must take because Barajas Airport is a hub airport and it might happen that your favourite store and your boarding gate are quiet away from each other.

Go to the boarding gate when it is the time, also, speakers and TV screens will always let you know when to embark. Don´t worry, normally there cannot go anything wrong by taking a boarding gate because there are always some airline staff that will check that our boarding pass corresponds to the wright boarding gate.

Relax and enjoy your flight, it might be that they bring you to the plane by bus, but only if it is too far away. When you enter into the plane go to the seat that suits you and stop worrying, it is done now. Just enjoy from your trip through the sky.
