      I plan to publish same posts on facebook and google+.

      As they are in 10 different languages, I would rather not make modifications for facebook and google+ respectively.

      1. Do you see any problems with this?

      2. Do you think it matters whether I first publish on google+ or first on facebook?

      3. Any problem if I publish posts on one social media account which I already published in another social media account for another company of mine some months ago?

      thanks

        The answer depends on what you're trying to accomplish with the posts. Are you trying to get them to rank in Google? In that case, then publishing the same content twice would be duplicate content, and likely only one of the posts will show up in the search results.

        From a social media perspective, if there is a large overlap between your Facebook audience & Google+ audience, then your users may see the same content twice, which most users won't mind but some could find annoying.

          thanks.

          I am not concerned about ranking of my facebook or google plus page in google.

            Ok, I don't really see any problems in that instance then. It's nice to provide content every once in a while that's only available on one network or the other though. Don't just always post the same content on both sites.
