I login to Google+ daily. Today I was greeted by this message that they have a custom URL suggestion for me.

New: https://plus.google.com/+JudeChan

Old: https://plus.google.com/u/2/118183467603114714777

It didn't take me more than 2 seconds to decide that +JudeChan is a better handle than a string of numbers. :)

I did a quick search to figure what's going on and discovered some Rules for getting a custom URL

  • You need 10 or more followers
  • Your account is a month old (at least)
  • You have a profile picture
  • Your account is in good standing

Did you just start your Google+ account? If so, I hope this guide is helpful.

I didn't know of this, so it was really a nice surprise.
