Google Profiles vs. Branded Google Profiles

I have a personal Google+ account and profile and decided on my own that for my niche websites, it made more sense to create branded Google+ accounts. You can have several branded accounts under one primary account. It's similar to how you can create pages under your FB profile or how you can create Company Pages under your LinkedIn profile. The company pages or FB pages are separate from your primary account, and yet accessible FROM your primary account for maintenance, etc.

Has anyone else made use of the Branded Google+ pages? Do you know if there are pros and cons to doing it either way? Or is it actually better to simply stick with the Google+ account as a person, vs. a brand and create your collections/communities from there?

I have several niche sites and I am undecided as to the best method.

I'd love to hear what others think on this topic.

Thanks!
