Google's newest addition to the social media is, Google+ and at the time of this publication, many people are saying Google+ will quickly replace other forms of social media as it provides an easier way to manage and communicate with friends, family and create endless circles of influence.
Others believe that Google+ will become a valuable addition to furthering their personal connections, and for marketers, it offers a whole new way of reaching out and networking with other entrepreneurs in your market.
Google+ has amassed millions of users, with over a billion pieces of content being posted throughout Google+ every single day.
While Google+ has rolled out its services to focus on the average user and individual, they have plans to create extensions within Google+ primarily for businesses. Already business can benefit with free tools that work like top pay products (as you will see).
Still, thousands of Internet Marketers and entrepreneurs have already started using Google+ to further their outreach, connect with their target audience and develop relationships with new partners and networking opportunities.
Matt Cutts and company (Google) have been explaining how using Google + would increase SERP’s if cross linked to your Google profile. Marketers that are doing this (Google “rel = author” ) are dominating the searches.
Obviously there are many good reasons to study and implement these strategies. This guide was put together to help you master this critical information without all the fluff or hype.
You can label your circles as anything you wish, such as business associates, family, associates, etc.. You can also have as many circles without limits
The best thing about your circles is that they are kept private, so that even when you add someone to your circle, they only see that you've added them as a connection, not what circle you added them into making it irrelevant to be concerned if you will upset someone for not being part of, say your inner circle.
When you first join Google+, simply begin by creating a handful of circles, with each one categorized based on the people you’re in contact with.
For example, you might create a circle for “Family”, “Friends”, “Partners” or even “Customers”.
By creating individual circles for each group of contacts, you can post content that goes out only to specific audiences, allowing you to "tailor" your content and updates based so that they are shared only with specific groups of people.
This is VERY powerful, because instead of posting an update as you would on Facebook or Twitter, and your entire following base being able to see it, you can create content around specific audiences, which gives you the opportunity to connect in a very different, and far more personalized way. It’s social segmenting at its very best and a marketer’s dream!

This is great. I don't really like Twitter, and one of the things I don't like about Facebook, is that everyone knows your business, even employers have started viewing your Facebook pages while considering hiring you. I don't like any of it. The only site I like so far is Pinterest, but I think I might like Google plus, now that I know what it's all about. Thanks for the great info, this is definitely a keeper.
