The long wait is over! Finally, today, Google announced Google+ Pages. Google+ Pages for businesses, brands and products. It will be a worldwide frenzy to get Google+ Business pages online. That’s worldwide. With the announcement of these new business pages, they also announced that it’s not quite yet available for everyone, but will be “soon” according to Google. We’ve been touting this for months now and finally Google has announced it.
The URL you will need to go to is https://plus.google.com/pages/create to create your Google+ Pages for businesses
“For you and me, this means we can now hang out live with the local bike shop, or discuss our wardrobe with a favorite clothing line, or follow a band on tour,” says Google SVP of Engineering Vic Gundotra. “Google+ pages give life to everything we find in the real world. And by adding them to circles, we can create lasting bonds with the pages (and people) that matter most.”
For businesses and brands, Google+ pages help you connect with the customers and fans who love you,” he adds. “Not only can they recommend you with a +1, or add you to a circle to listen long-term. They can actually spend time with your team, face-to-face-to-face. All you need to do is start sharing, and you’ll soon find the super fans and loyal customers that want to say hello.”

A number of pages are already available (see below)
Direct Connect from Google search
People search on Google billions of times a day, and very often, they’re looking for businesses and brands. Today’s launch of Google+ Pages can help people transform their queries into meaningful connections, so we’re rolling out two ways to add pages to circles from Google search. The first is by including Google+ pages in search results, and the second is a new feature called Direct Connect.
Maybe you’re watching a movie trailer, or you just heard that your favorite band is coming to town. In both cases you want to connect with them right now, and Direct Connect makes it easy—even automatic. Just go to Google and search for [+], followed by the page you’re interested in (like +Angry Birds). We’ll take you to their Google+ page, and if you want, we’ll add them to your circles.
This is a great idea and a natural extension of Google+. Please assemble a directory page for this app so users can see who has created a page.
Thanks! You can simply search for the Google+ pages!
