International Social Media Pages

[Dan-Lawrence]

If your going to target multiple countries but who have same language (such as US & UK) which of the main social media accounts should you set up a country specific version for ?

I know some like Google+ allow for sub-pages/listings for different localities/outlets etc so I presume you only need the one G+ company page (but pls confirm if you agree or not ?).

I keep hearing peeps say set up country specific Twitter and FaceBook pages, do you agree ? and what about other main social sites like Pinterest & LinkedIn etc ?

Thanks

I don't think you should create country specific Facebook pages but there are advantages in creating language specific social accounts. I have seeing two companies doing this

• eToro ( a FOREX trading platform )
• Cacoo ( an online diagramming service )

And in both cases I think they are using the language as the criteria for opening a separate social media page.

Another thing to consider is the amount of time/budget you can need to allocate for maintaining these pages.

Thanks for your comments Nishadha !!

I would deifnately do so for different languages but keep seeing and hearing seo/social peeps say that for both seo & social reasons you should set up country specific social paegs such as Twitter and FB

So i still welcome peoples opinions as to which ones ?
