Google Plus Resources and Tips

Google Plus is all about you. It is a great place to brand yourself and build up friends and business contacts.

If you haven't yet claimed your Google Plus profile, Go ahead and do it now.

According to the Marketing Professor Travis Campbell, It’s still early, but there is a lot of excitement around Google+ by those who have jumped on early, and for good reason. Google has launched a social network with several features designed to leapfrog its competition(aka Facebook).

So here I am going to share with you tips and resources to get maximum benefit from Google Plus. These resources were collected as part of my learning process.

Google Plus Widgets

I found two Google plus widgets which you can use in your websites and blogs. One is "Add me on Google+" widget and other is Google plus feed widget (I found this following one of Lisa's Comment here). I am posting my widgets as example here.

For this widget, visit website http://widgetsplus.com/. Add your Google plus profile ID number. You can customize the look and feel of the widget. Then get the code. Copy and paste the script generated to where you want to place the widget in your website or blog. The examples shown are images as I cannot add script here.

Below given is my Google plus feed widget. You can get from http://www.gglpls.com/google-plus-feed-widget/. This widget is also highly customizable.
