New Google+ Business Features

Do you have a Google+ account yet for your business? Although some debate on whether or it's a useful social media platform, it's always a good idea to get control of your branding across as many major social media sites as possible - especially because someone else may snap up your desired brand name if you don't. Here are some of the features that Google is introcducing:

  • Control the privacy of your organization's posts - individual posts can be shared internally or with specified outside parties.
  • Google+ Hangouts now allows you to video conference up to 10 people at once - how's that for simplifying meetings?
  • Meetings can be made more private with custom default settings for company posts within the admin controls.
  • More features are on their way over the next few months!
