Okay, so in this video, I just wanted to show you what it would look like to the public to actually see your Google My Business profile. Now generally, what's going to happen is if someone searches for your business on Google, they're not going to really directly be able to find this page unless they actually add in Google plus into the search. So if I typed in, lighten up electrical and plumbing, and then added Google Plus to my search, I'm going to actually be able to find this page publicly. But generally, people are mostly going to just see a little bit of a blurb, about the business and the basic info, they could make a phone call. And you know, a lot of times people aren't really going to end up on this page. This is more of the social media side of things over on Google Plus, but I did want to show you what it looked like completed.

You can see the logo will show up here. The cover photo will show up here on the right. And then below that you've got a little bit of you know, you get your reviews, so you can see a brief snippet of the reviews. If I wanted to. I could click here to write the review. You get a brief street view of where they're located.

Any people are, you know, in their Google Plus circles, brief idea of some photos and things that we've added, which we already went over the business information, what types of businesses business categories, they are here you see electrician, plumber, the business hours. And then here, this is where that introduction is displayed. And then if you go all the way down, you can see all the reviews and you can keep clicking more and browsing through all these different reviews, you can also see responses that the owner would have left. And this really helps to, you know, kind of give a good perception of your business. So we're going to talk about reviews in the next video. And I hope this helps.

One last thing I didn't want to show you. And you may discover this is if you actually look up here, you'll see meet the new Google Plus simpler, faster, better preview it today. If I hit Let's go, this is actually going to take me to a very, very minimalized version of that same profile. essentially what's happening is Google is actually getting rid of Google Plus. So they're moving away from the US ecosystem that is Google Plus the page that I just showed you, that's eventually probably going to go away. And this is really all that we're going to have.

It's just going to have the profile image, the cover photo, business name, contact information, and then a link to the website. It's very, very dumbed down. And this is Google's attempt to kind of start moving away from the Google Plus side of social media. So if you do happen to see this, well, you'll actually have to do, I think, because of the way I'm logged in, they may have changed this. Sometimes there's a link down in the bottom left that will say go back to the original. I think if I hit the back button, this is kind of like the homepage of it.

Yeah, so this is the homepage area of the new Google Plus. And you'll have to go at the very bottom left here, if you do end up on this, you'll have to hit back to classic google plus, which is here at the bottom left. You also will not see this unless you're logged in, under the profile. So you might be viewing this like if you let's just say you weren't logged in as the business, you're not going to be able to do this unless you're actually logged in. So I do want to point that out. So I've hit back to classic.

And now we're back on the classic page. And here's like the homepage of all their posts and things like that. And I'd have to go back to my hit packs here. Yeah, I can click, I can click up at the top left now I'm back in the business area. So that's really all there is to it in terms of the actual Google Plus business view.
