It’s been just over a week since Google launched business pages and already a whopping 61 percent of the world’s top brands have created Google+ pages.  However, site, search and social management platform BrightEdge reports that these brands are having mixed success.  They report that big brands like Coke, McDonalds and Verizon are attracting only dozens of fans.

The BrightEdge study analyzed the world’s Top 100 brands and found that a collective total of all of these brands’ fans on Google+ was only around 148,000 while their collective total of Facebook fans was a whopping 300 million.

CEO of BrightEdge Jim Yu says, “Brands have been quick to embrace a presence on Google+, but clearly there is a long way to go in establishing social networks that really have scale and deep user engagement.
