| Getting found in Google+ searches | ronnoc | 7/25/12 5:15 PM | Hello. I have a Google+ Page dedicated to a particular topic (in this case, Kubuntu Linux). I post pretty regularly, but was noticing not much activity on the page, so I took the liberty of searching Google+ for "kubuntu" and received several results |

| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | ronnoc | 7/29/12 1:29 AM | I get that but regrettably it still doesn't explain why the page doesn't show in any Google search |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | Acorn | 8/1/12 6:34 AM | It seems to me that the keyword in your Google+ page name gives you better visabilty in the Google+ search facility, at least it does in my niche anyway.I understand you can change the name but only once every 30 days. |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | SQLPerformance | 8/12/12 10:25 AM | Unlike a Places entry feeding a Google+ page there are no Categories in a + Local Business page so is there no alternative to adding your primary Category onto the page name? At the moment the drop down list does not include the address like in the P |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | Kaleh | 8/12/12 1:00 PM | Regarding name changes, please note that you can no longer change your name once every 30 days. The new guidelines limit name changes to 3 times in 2 years. I would be very careful about name changes. |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | Kaleh | 8/12/12 1:03 PM | SQLPerformance This user is not talking about a Google+ Page in the "Local Business or Place" category. His Google+ Page is about a "topic" not a local business. |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | SQLPerformance | 8/13/12 1:52 AM | Ah. Thanks. Is there a way you can tell of what type a displayed subsidiary page is? |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | Kaleh | 8/13/12 3:02 AM | @SQLPerformance Google does not "label" the Google+ Pages with the categories that they were created under. We have to rely on "contextual" clues to determine if a Google+ Page was created in the "Local business or place" category vs a different cat |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | SQLPerformance | 8/13/12 5:03 AM | I thought there were limited clues. You only get the map if you have set up the Address details at the bottom of the About page, if anyone wonders why they do not have a map. |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | Kaleh | 8/13/12 6:28 AM | There can be maps in two different locations ... one below the profile image on the right side of the page ... and another at the bottom of the "About" page. I'm talking about the one that is below the profile image on the right side of the page. W |
| Re: Getting found in Google+ searches | SQLPerformance | 8/13/12 2:16 PM | I am talking about the one at the top right. I was not aware of one at the bottom. I am still getting into the Google+ pages stuff. |
