Google+ Brand Pages are now available, allowing businesses and brands to join Google’s social network.

The new Google+ brand pages look similar to Google+ Profiles, except for the little square icon that designates that it’s a Page rather than a Profile.

When users add a brand to their circles, it increases that brand’s follower count.
