Just read an article on mashable. It looks like google+ traffic has plummeted over 60% since it’s launch! :omg:
I know they released their pages functionality which is kind of like facebook, but I wonder if it’s even worthwhile to invest the time and market on the network?
Google+ Traffic Falls 60% After Spike at Public Launch

Hmmm be interesting to see what others think about this…
I had a feeling Google+ wouldn’t do too well, especially with Facebook around.
Its probably still worthwhile to invest time with Google+ for ranking purposes. I’m sure it has some value as a ranking factor.
Not feeling Google+… Who knows, maybe Google+ needs to have more time to establish itself. Personally, I feel like it’s a little confusing. And I’m not too sure how the Google+ pages will compare with Facebook pages. Need to evaluate things more before deciding to dedicate time to building it up.
Just curious, anyone seeing a lot of benefit to Google+ for their affiliate business? Maybe I’m just missing something…
As much as people complain about facebook – we still keep using it, because all our friends are there and using it.
If more of my friends were on Google + .. I would use it more often.
Google Plus fan page don’t allow gambling,
but i see there are some gambling fan pages.Also how to identify Google Plus profile page vs. Google Plus fan page ?

Do not distribute content that facilitates online gambling, including online casinos, sports betting, or lotteries.
So, does this mean we cannot share gambling related content even
from the personal profile wall(not fan page) as well ?@Vrindavan 235246 wrote:

I am not using google+ yet either. Just feels like a waste of time since everyone is on facebook. Who needs another social network? It feels like the only people that will be using google+ are the affiliates, trying to push their product/sites. The rest will stick to facebook. I mean, most facebook profiles have tones of pictures and friends. Why would anyone want to create/copy to google? I am not feeling it.

Based on the quoted terms, I would guess you have just been lucky so far in not getting caught, as soon as they see the page it will likely be deleted.
I know there are lots of gambling related pages out there, not sure how well they are doing generating traffic, but apparently they are all breaking the rules.
>> as soon as they see the page it will likely be deleted
fan page will be deleted.
“personal profile wall” means your “google plus account” will be affected as well ?
i can lose a fan page, but i don’t want to lose my google plus account.
More and more people are reporting banned pages, hasn’t caught up with me yet, but with this pace, I am guessing it will soon. Oh well I less hyped up place to post at.

I wouldn’t ignore google+ entirely. Yes, from a marketing stand point on the pages and such perhaps it doesn’t make sense since facebook and twitter is out there. But google+ is beginning to influence search results, as I’m sure you’ve noticed in some of google’s recent updates.
I think it is still worthwhile to have a +1 button on your content pages, as google is now taking user behavior and social interactions into account when ranking pages. Only question is, will the people who +1 your content get banned? That’s what I’m not sure about
