Google Is it best to choose "Adding to Circles" or "Following"?

When I went through the training that suggested we set up a Google+ account, I don't remember it mentioning that when we add people to our account, whether to "Add to Circles" or "Following". I have been just "Following" all those I have added since I never created any Circles.

Today I clicked on one of the profiles of people I am "following" and when it came up to their profile it said something about the fact that they have nothing to share with me because I didn't have them in any of my circles.

Can you let me know if you put people in your circles or whether you follow them. Can you do both? I am only "following" people, and I'm really not sure what that means exactly.

I don't even know if I am using Google+ adequately. About all I do is put posts there. I don't see other people's posts, so are they not seeing mine, although a few have clicked "+1" on the bottom of some of my posts.

Thanks!

Hello Diana
You can join circles or create your own and send invites through connecting.
Of course its best to keep it related to your niche.

Thanks, Robert.

Use your search box in your Google+ to find suitable circles/groups.

Since Google is revamping G+ it would be great if the training for it was updated and redefined a wee bit!

Largo, I'm sorry, but I can't help you. You are farther along than I am.
I'm following you to learn. Hope somebody can answer you question.

Blessings

Well, hopefully someone will respond so we can both learn something! :-)
