Google Plus: Waste of Time, or Vital Tool?

Media_httpfreelancesw_atflb

Google+ launched in June 2011 to much fanfare. Some commentators predicted it would slay Facebook. Others anticipated a rapid demise for the network.

Neither predictions came to pass.

On the one hand, Google Plus grew at lightening speed. By December 2012, it had over 500 million users, on a par with Twitter, and around half of Facebook’s total userbase.

On the other hand, Google Plus remains a a social media ghost town. Though it has half a billion users, almost no one actually uses it, at least not regularly.

Is it really worthwhile for freelancers to use Google Plus? Or is it best to watch from the sidelines to see what its future holds?

Let’s take a look and see how using Google Plus can benefit you as a freelancer.
