Yes, you do need to learn GooglePlus. Interview with B.L. Ochman

Beyond Social Media Show co-host B.L. Ochman discussed why you need to learn GooglePlus in a Hangout on Air interview by Donna Papacosta, writer, speaker, podcaster, communications and social media consultant, content marketer and curator.
The main reason? Google+ is not just another social network. It’s Google.

• Remember Google+ is a very image-friendly place; use photos and other visuals to your advantage
• Take advantage of Google+ Communities
• Be sure to try out Google Hangouts, which offer rich features to enhance your online communications
• Keep in mind that Google has changed its search algorithms so that engagement matters!
• Google+ is Google after all, and tightly integrated with Google Search.
• Think about working with a Google+ guide to help you navigate the ins and outs.
