I have always been a fan of social media and how it affects blogging. While Facebook and Twitter are very popular, other forms of social media exist and their growth is significant.
For the past several months, I've been reading "techy" and blogging articles about Google+. I realized what a positive impact Google+ could have on the blogging community. The potential of blog and small business growth with the use of Google+ is astounding. That's why I want to share this new blog hop with you.
I have teamed up with several bloggers to bring you the first (that I know of) Google+ blog hop. We want to encourage you to use Google+ in the social media promotion of your blog or business. Google+ is on the rise in the social media world. Establishing your blog's (or sm. business') presence now will increase your chance to benefit from the increasing popularity of Google+ in the future.
If you need information on how to set up a new g+ profile or enhance the one you already have, visit this link:

To participate in this hop, all you have to do is link up your G+ PROFILE page URL. For the "name" section, use your name or your blog's/website's name. Use your personal photo or blog's/website's button or logo for the thumbnail picture. You may link up at this blog or any of the participating host's blogs below:
We would appreciate it if you would also follow the hosts of this blog hop (add them to your circles). All of the host's g+ profile pages can be found at the top of the list.
This blog hop is only for g+ pages...please do not link up your blog's url. We encourage the sharing of your personal, blog or small business' g+ (profile) page. After you link up your g+ profile page, please visit some of the other profiles that are linked up and add them to your circles. We want you to help your fellow bloggers' g+ page grow!
I added everyone before me, except for Craft Minds. It didn't bring that page up correctly so that I could add it to my circle.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I'm still reading up on all of your wonderful information on G+. Thank you so much for sharing all of the valuable info. You rock!!!! Have a wonderful weekend. HUGS
ReplyDeleteThanks for the invite. Sorry, I entered the wrong code and # 27 should be cancelled. Marty
ReplyDeleteI'm with Marty, It's early for me and 39 is just my blog. Sorry. It's a habit. Please delete 39.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting the party. I just set myself up on Google+ two days ago from your awesome instructions. Mine is set up as a page and not as my personal profile (don't normally have my full name out there), so hoping it works correctly.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting this fun party.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great idea. Hope to make a lot of new friends today!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Susie
It's going to take a while to add all of these wonderful g+ pages, but i'm going to do it! Can't wait to see what all of these ladies have to share. Great to make new g+ friends! Janelle
ReplyDeleteSuch a great link party idea! Thank you for hosting. Added all the hostesses and several others. I'll be back to add more! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteOh my. I am such a newbie to all this. 4 days ago I finally got up the nerve to start a Blog and Google+ acct.
ReplyDeleteBeen reading such fabulous ones over the last 8 months and enjoying them.
This is such a wonderful opportunity for a 'baby' on the block like me.
Been adding , but my eyes are getting droopy here. Will be back for more tomorrow.
Thanks!!
Cheers, Gee
Thanks for hosting Shasta...this social networking is what it is all about now.
ReplyDeleteWeird... I have tried adding my Google + page several times, but I keep getting an error message. I guess I'll try again a bit later.
ReplyDeleteGot my page linked up finally. I have everyone added and cant wait to see what they have to share. Thanks Shasta : )
ReplyDeleteI'm getting the dreaded error message too, will try again in a little while I guess. Come on Linky Tools, let me play! BTW, great idea - I will start adding a few of you in the meantime, maybe we can connect that way even if I can't get into the official blog hop yet.
ReplyDeleteI kept getting an error as well- but it finally let me link up- though it looks like it added other text (probably from a previous link entry) to my link up. Oh well!! Thank you soo much for hosting!! Excited to join in the fun!!!
ReplyDeleteI was getting the error message too but then I tried uploading my picture from my computer instead of from the web and that worked. Hopefully it works for those of you still trying! Looking forward to "meeting" all of you!
ReplyDeletethis is so great! so glad you did the link up and i seriously to love your blog! cant wait to read more!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up at the GFC Blog Hop today! Hope you found some amazing new blogs and even some new friends!!
