OK I checked my googleplus profile yesterday and noticed that 20,000 are now following me.

Am I that popular? I know I wasn't when back at school. What has happened? Why are they following me?

Do you know all I did was get active. Everyday I put up a post or two, followed a few people or two and was active on other posts. I joined a few communities and answered questions other people had.

The first few months it was slow I would get maybe 1-2 new followers a day. I had maxed out my circles with 5000 I was following and had to do a clear out with a nice tool called Circloscope Uncirclers, its an extension in chrome and did a good job.

Over the next few months I seen the figure go up to 10-15 per day added to my number and as it grew now I get about 100 a day.

Where will this go who knows but almost every time I post on Googleplus I get interaction, people share, plus and follow the links to my site. OK not all 20K do, that would be awesome, but I'm getting activity and its adding to the snowball effect.

Hopefully one day I can use this group to really kick off my site and then the real fun begins.

You can see for yourself here...ME!

***Update 04-02-19*** Googleplus is closing in April this year. No more using it to produce traffic to your websites. Shame but there are other paltforms out there to gain traffic, for me Pinterest has been a good alternative.
