How to Switch Between Google+ Business Pages and Personal Google+ Profiles
Most of you have probably heard that Google+ recently released business pages for companies and organizations on Google+.
As an early adopter, I quickly created a business page for AnsonAlex.com.
Although a full fledged article on Google+ business pages will be released in the near future, I wanted to write a quick post on an initial problem that I experienced directly after creating my Google+ business page.
Before I forget, don’t forget to check out the rest of my Google+ tutorials after you’re finished with this one!
How Can I Switch Back and Forth Between my Personal and Business Google+ Profiles?
- Go to the “home” or “photos” tab in either your Google+ business page or personal profile.
- On the left side of the page, below the “Google+” logo, you’ll notice a thumbnail of either your profile picture or your business page logo. Click on the upside down “triangle” next to the image.
- Select the profile or page that you would like to use.

Wow, that feature was not easy to find! I was looking and looking for a way to switch. Thanks a lot, this really helped. My hair was going gray.
Thanks for this feature I was also pretty confused on how I was meant to switch between my personal Google+ account and my newly created business page!! Again thanks for the help
I'm glad you all found this post useful!
Another way I find handy is to simply bookmark the individual pages in my browser. I have my Google+ profile plus 2 Google+ pages bookmarked so my access is a direct click.
I'm so glad I found this blog! I was feeling very stupid not being able to figure out how to easily switch between my personal and business profiles…now I know! I'm off to check out your other Google+ tutorials now
Cheers Anson,
Very helpful advice.
I looked for ages how to change between biz and personal.
I can't understand why Google couldn't show it.
Thanks
OK – so how do you switch between personal profiles and business pages on your mobile (android) using the app?
I'm wondering the same thing Marco is.
I have the same problem I can't or don't know how to switch on my iPhone 4S between personal and my business account. Any help will be greatly appreciated thanks,Shane
I dont have a photo on the left hand side it is on the right. I am getting so frustrated as I click to switch to page and then google switches me back and I end up sharing from wrong profile, I am utterly confused and think pages are pointless. Where do I share to my page or my profile??
