Google Plus is rapidly becoming more important for your business. It is becoming closely tied to how Google finds and displays search engines results. People who are logged into their Google Account (gmail, YouTube or other Google service) will have their search results influenced by who they are connected to on social media in general and Google+ in particular.
It’s a simple and free marketing tool that will give you a big boost in Search Engine Optimization (SEO). SEO is one area of online marketing that many small businesses do little about, mainly, I suspect, because they don’t understand it. And while Google+ is growing by leaps and bounds, too many small businesses, local businesses and solopreneurs have not yet jumped on the Google+ bandwagon.
If that sounds like you, it’s time to change that. Go to Google+ today and set up your account now.
Here’s a short video produced by Google about what you need to know about setting up your Google+ profile.

Are you on Google+? Share a link to your profile or a comment about how you’re using it.
Hi Andrea
I have been on Google+ for some time, but don’t use it as often as I should.
I spend too much time on Facebook I guess!
However, I am aware that Google+ is likely to become much more important than Facebook for marketing, so I’m trying to use it more.
Hey Andrea,
I jumped on the G+ wagon after reading Guy Kawasaki’s book, What the Plus. Short, very action-oriented book that help me finally see what *I* could use it for in my business like create media lists or mastermind groups.
The book tells you how to post (tricky to figure out) and find people to be in your circles.
I see G+ and Facebook both being important in helping women entrepreneurs find my resources.
Good to chat with you as always!
I just wanted to say that Google+ is the friend of SEO,
