Help with Google+ (7 posts)

  • Can anyone please help me with my Google + account? It seems I am having a hard time finding out what my profile ID is. Here is what Google says to do and it makes no sense…

    How can I find my page ID?

    Your page ID is a 21-digit string. The canonical version of your Google+ page URL is in the format https://plus.google.com/yourpageID. To find the URL of your page, go to your page’s stream and click Get started on the left-hand menu. In the Tell the world section, copy the URL provided.

    So I go to my page’s stream and there is no “Get Started” section or tab and therefore there is no “Tell the World” section.

    Everyone keeps telling me that my profile ID is just the numbers in my URL but when I use those to make a badge it errors out. Please help.

    Also my +1′s aren’t showing up on my profile page….the pages that I like….they aren’t showing up. I’ve +1′d like 10 different sites and none of them are showing up. Ughhhhh……this Google + is becoming a pain, way to hard to figure things out.


  • @corzig It sounds like there may be some login issues on your account. Have you tried logging out and closing all browsers completely and then logging back in?

    The “Get Started” link should be on the left-side navigation under your profile picture. Then you should be able to follow the instructions. It would be on the main stream page when you initially login. If you want to PM me for help I could possibly walk you through it.

  • @corzig Can you post your link that Google gives you in your email? You might try this link when you are logged into your gmail account…

    https://plus.google.com/u/0/getstarted/suggest

    …and when you think you are logged into your Gmail mail just look up in the top left corner and you should see +Cory

  • Hey all, I tried your suggestions, I closed out of Google + and I closed out of my Gmail account. Then I reopened and signed back on to my Gmail. Once I signed back in to my Gmail I clicked on “+Cory” in the upper left and my Google+ account opens in another tab. It opens to my stream but there is still nothing under my profile pic and my +1′s are still not there. I don’t get it.

  • @corzig Is it a personal profile or page? The getting started button is only showing for me on the business page not on my personal profile 

  • @corzig Did you get everything figured out and developed to have it be a G+ page?

  • Hey thanks all. Alexandra helped me out quite a bit. I figured out that I was trying to do things on the personal side and not the business side.
