Marketers Are Getting More Followers On Google Plus

By Leon McLuur


Different people take advantage of social networking sites for different reasons. Some use them for staying connected with family and friends, while others make them part of their marketing. These days, a new one called Google Plus is on the rise. Once you already got an account there, the next step would be getting more followers on Google Plus.

Perhaps the quickest way to gain friends or more people to your circles is by clicking on the "Circle" on top of your homepage. Click on "Find and Invite" and you will see a list of people from your Gmail account. Simply drag each person to one of the existing circles below.

You may also create new circles other than "Friends", "Family", "Acquaintances" and "Following" that are already there. Simply drag a friend to the leftmost circle that's gray in color. Click "Add a new person" option if you wish to add people who are not on the list.

Invite your contacts in your other social networking site accounts to join you on this new venture. Some people may have not heard of it yet. Post an announcement that you already have an account there. Place a link to your profile so that people who also got their accounts there may put you to their circles. Inform those who don't have theirs yet to tell you their e-mail addresses so you may send them invitations.

Be on the lookout for famous people putting up their accounts. Be it a recording artist, movie actor, painter or book writer, send the person an invitation. Participate actively in the posts so people there who are also looking for more followers may go over your profile and invite you if they find your comments there interesting enough.

Come up with striking posts that can go viral. It can be an amazing photograph, a nifty quote, amazing drawings or funny video clips. No matter what it is, see to it that it's worthy of being reposted or shared to others. Choose "Extended Circles" or "Public" to ensure that everyone can access it. If people like it, it's not unlikely for them to right away add you to their circles.

Getting more followers on Google Plus can also be as simple as leaving sensible comments to other people's posts. It's also fine to participate in discussions. See to it that your comments are winning. People who run across your comments will be interested with you, peek at your profile and want you to be in their circles.
