The Rise And Rise Of Google Plus

Tags: google social
Google+ was launched on June 28 ,2011 in a field testing phase before it opened it to public later that year on  Sept 20. There was insane demand to get G+ invite and even the invite went on sale on eBay and amazon.  Google+ came with lots of features including hangouts, sparks[which is now known as what's hot] and circles. Along with the G+ launch they also launched mobile apps for android ad ios . G+ is the fastest Social network to reach 50m user base.Is google+ a growing threat to the 800m user base of facebook?



Google+ has more than 50m user base and its till in doubt that whether users are visiting or bouncing back to their old social network. So i have decided to have a quick and short survey among 50 G+ user from 20 different countries . I have asked 4 questions among the users and  have analyzed their statements and made data with that.

For me Google+ is beyond the conventional social networking engine, it is a lot more intelligent than the others. It has really become a knowledge engine, and I spent a great deal of time reading posts, opening additional content, and sharing more than I have ever done before.

I had a great time collecting opinions and comments from the users and found that on average each users spend more than 2 hr/day on Google+ and people like Matty john , Suzy Abraham  and Christy Mathew finds more than 5 hrs a day on Google+ reading posts, commenting and sharing.   When asked about how many social networks the users are into , i found that off the 50 users 20 prefers only to use G+ and 20 are using other platforms like twitter, tumblr, Facebook, foursquare and linked In. And rest 10 user are getting bored of their social networks and want to settle down in G+ .

I use facebook as well but fazing it out - Matty John / USA

On average each people has at least 1000 people in their circle which is more than enough to stay online on G+ for long.  And found that 28 of 50 people did hangout once or more and 10 users never tried google hangout feature or unaware of this feature or ended up in a wrong place to hangout like work place. 12 of the users wants to try out hangout and will soon be doing.

I  love Google+ because it's the only social network I've been on and I use other google services as well. -Khawar Syed / A Google fan boy from USA
Google+  is gaining popularity among many people.  As of my belief it is the perfect and the only platform to showcase talents . I have talked to many people who is sometimes photographers, chefs, writers and comes from various professions and very happy to tell that they are getting noticed and their works are. Bring people of same likes together is what google+ is doing and will sure dominate the social networks in coming few years.
