Google’s Answer to Facebook Pages – Brand Pages Launched on Google+

Google has finally launched Brand Pages on Google Plus, its answer to the Facebook Pages. Currently limited to “businesses and brands,” dedicated pages for brands has been a much awaited and talked about feature for Google+ which was launched around 4 months ago, back in July when it was launched as an invitation-only service. Later in September, Google+ was opened to the public.

Like people, Brand Pages have their own Google+ page which can be added to a person’s circle. As reported on Google’s official blog,

So far Google+ has focused on connecting people with other people. But we want to make sure you can build relationships with all the things you care about—from local businesses to global brands—so today we’re rolling out Google+ Pages worldwide.
