Two Insanely Easy Ways to Get

More Business Using Google

Google+1 and Google Local Directory

By

Jason C. Maxwell


Intro

Google +1 is one of the coolest new things out there when it comes to integrating social media into the

search results. Well maybe you have never even heard of Google +1 so let me tell you a little bit about it.

Basically over the last few years Facebook has begun to take over the world, I am only half kidding here.

Social media has a draw to it that is not in other types of internet media. It causes us to want to be on it

all day long. People are addicted to social media and Google and other internet media companies have

felt the hit. So how can they fix the problem?

What is it How Can it Help Me?

One of their strategies is a thing called “Google +1”. Basically this is a little button that is placed on

search results or a website. When people push the button it increments by one. In the background

though it does some amazing things for you. It lets your friends and family know that this is a site that

you think they should check out. Google in their advertising compares it to your Mom leaving you a note

on the fridge or a friend giving you a recommendation about a great cookie recipe.

Google +1’s are not emailed to your friends and family, nor are they posted as “status updates”. Instead

when your friends and family are searching for things they will see a little icon underneath certain sites

with your name recommending it. Google knows who you are when you make a search only if you are

signed in to your Google Account.

So what if you site is searched by someone who is not a friend of a person who has +1’ed you. Well then

the user will see the icon and the number of +1’s your site has received. This will become a way for

people to know how well a site has been liked by people that came before you. It is a ranking system

very similar to the “Like” button on Facebook which has become so wildly popular.


Doing It The Right Way

If you are trying to create a real web presence you will need to get the little snippet of Google +1 code

and put it on your website. If you are using Wordpress it is as easy as opening a text widget and putting

this code inside the widget. If you have a regular HTML site you just need to put the code inside the

body tags on your site, or have your webmaster do it for you. All in all this is a great little addition to the

Google world and will help lots of people get more traffic to their sites.

This (also) Works Really Well: Google Local Directory

Would you like to get more business? A major source of new business is the Google local business

directory. They are now calling it “Google Places” and it is very similar to the Yellow Pages of old. In fact,

some people call it the Google Yellow Pages. When a person types in a request, like “Real Estate Agent”

into Google the computer tells Google where you are located in the world so that it can give you Places

local results. This business directory must be a part of your local business marketing plan. One way that

you can get higher rankings in the Places directory is to have good reviews. How can you get good

reviews on Google Places?

Ask Your Customers

Ask your current customers. I have a client who owns a real estate firm. She asks all her renters to sit at

her desk, log in and write a review. She did this when they all came in to pay rent. She now has tons of

great reviews and a high ranking. You can ask your customers to rate your service, but it is even better if

you engage them and get them to do it right there in your office.

If you want to make your Google Places profile really get noticed add pictures. You can sign into your

Places account and add photos of your business. Show your potential customers great pictures of your

products or pictures of your staff. Give an exterior picture of the building you are in so they are able to

find you easier. When people have a great experience with your business they will add reviews on their

own without you needing to ask.


If you really want to get noticed on Places then find a few customers who have unique stories to tell

about your business. Video the customer telling their story and put it up on YouTube. You can then link

it to your Places account and your potential customers will see it. Keep the testimonial to less than 2

minutes and make sure it is very exciting and most of all make sure that it is true.

Great testimonials on your Google Places page will help you to get noticed. Having a high ranking on

Places will help you to beat out all your competition. Get great reviews from your current customers,

your new customers, and create videos so that your business will get ranked highly by Google Places.
