Sharing the content you create online on your blog with your friends,
family and followers is a great way to get the word going. And since
word-of-mouth marketing is often considered to be the best marketing
tactic, your content gets a lot more out-reach when your followers
in-turn share your content on social media. It's crucial for growing
your blog's audience and engagement. But often times, one does not have
the time to manually open social media pages, and share a post. Keeping
this in view, Google has added a new feature to blogger, which allows bloggers to automatically share their blog posts on Google Plus.
How to connect to Google Plus?
Integration is really easy. In the Blogger dashboard, you can see a gear
icon at the top right of your dashboard. Click on that, and then click
on Connect to Google+ (option available only if you haven't already
connected your profile to Google+).
Alternatively, you can visit this link to start the switching process. It's all that simple!
Once you switch your account, your blog will be associated with your
Google Plus profile. There'll be no 'loss' of data. Only, what was
previously your Blogger profile, will now become part of your
Google Plus profile, and all relevant data synchronized. It's pretty
neat actually. Your Blogger profile will become inactive, and users will
be redirected to your Google Plus profile.
Once you switch over to the Google Plus profile, you have the option of
reverting back to your old Blogger profile within 30 days, after which
your Blogger profile will be deleted. And just like a single Blogger
account was associated with all of your blogs, so will your Google Plus
profile be connected with all of them. So you can't have different
Google Plus profiles, unless you have different Google Accounts.
Blogger and Google+ Integration
If you have implemented the Google Plus Commenting System
on your Blogger blog (which we strongly recommend that you do), your
comments will be synced. So When a post gets automatically shared to
your Google Plus profile, and when someone comments on it right on
Google Plus, you will be able to see that comment on your blog post as
well, which is a really cool feature, something which can really help
you keep track of the conversation.
