The amount of Google +1′s that you have also impacts your site ranking in searches. Having more +1′s on your posts will make your blog appear higher in search results.
I started re-using G+ a month ago and now, I find it much more interesting than Facebook. G+ doesn’t get that personal, you learn a lot of tips and get connected to wonderful and smart people. And it is good for SEO!
Thank you for this post!!!
I was active on Google Plus when it first launched, then left it alone. I’ve been looking for some resources to learn more about it, so thanks for sharing this. I needed it!
If I understand some other stuff about Google+ if I have gmail, now anyone in the entire google+ world (not just my circle but ANYWHERE) can email me directly. Just by typing in my name and doing a search. I am not so sure I like that. I have a hard enough time keeping spam out of my inbox. Also, if I make a comment on a youtube it automatically goes out into my google+ circle which includes people that I didn’t invite and therefore don’t really know that I would include them in all my activities. Taking away my choices. I may not want my husband to know that I am making comments on a Youtube about how to hide a dead body….I am new to this stuff too but I would like to know more because I do see how google+ could increase my readership. Thanks!
Needed this one.
