Google+ Makes Business Page Changes You Should Be Aware Of

Posted on March 6th, by Kim Randall in Featured, Google+, Social Media, Social Media Tips. No Comments

Google+ Pages just changed, again. Here are some changes that you need to know about.

1. Your logo/ picture avatar has moved and is no longer square shaped. Does your image look silly in a circle shape?

2. The cover photo has changed in size. Your cover photo might need to be changed as well due to the new location of the avatar image.
