Increase Your Google Plus Followers: Part II

Increasing your Google Plus followers can impact your Google search result rankings. If you have already tried the tactics in our previous blog about increasing your Google plus followers and are ready to try some more complex approaches, this post is for you.

Attend Google Plus Events

Find a Google+ event, either a Hangout or a live chat, that relates to your industry or business. Try to attend the event as they are usually lively and insightful, and a great way to connect with new people on Google+. Contribute to the conversation and get your brand out there. When you share the stuff people like and they feel like they know you better, they’re likely to add you to their circles.

Or Host Your Own Hangout on Air

If you are an expert on your topic or you can host one, Google hangouts-on-air are a great way to build yourself up as an authority on Google+. You can build a good following by organizing a successful hangout-on-air every once in a while, and it can be a nice step toward establishing yourself as an authority.

Use the Explore Feature 

From the “Explore” tab, you can discover popular hashtags in your niche based on a topic. From here, you can find popular posts that are trending and engage with them by leaving a comment or interacting with the user who posted it. You can also use these hashtags in your own posts to take part in the conversation.

Start Commenting on Posts

From the Explore feature, adopt a habit to comment on other’s posts so that it gives you a chance to get in touch with lots of new fellows. It may take some time to go through and find quality posts and to contribute in a meaningful way.
