July 16, 2014 //  by Mike Allton

Reading Time: 2 minutes

For businesses who want to leverage Google+ to promote and market their business, there’s a sharp learning curve. The mechanics of the social network are different than others, and once you’ve mastered those, there’s still a unique culture that needs to be understood.

In essence, duplicating the same strategy that you’ve used on Facebook or Twitter isn’t going to work.

But for those who have questioned even the validity of Google+, there’s hope. Google+ is the second largest social network in the world, and is completely interegrated into the Google ecosystem. In short, Google+ is Google. And therefore businesses who hope to improve their Google rankings will surely benefit from an active presence on Google+.

So where do you begin?

Right here.

Google+ University

There are six courses and each course is comprised of several chapters, all designed to take you from Beginner (101 level) all the way up to Advanced (601) level. While all of the content is here on The Social Media Hat, the course syllabus, which will continue to grow and be updated, lives and breathes on Google+.

Pin it, bookmark it, and share it with your friends. The entire course is completely free. You can go through it at your leisure and pick and choose which topics interest you.

COURSE SYLLABUS:

  • GOOGLE+ 101: Introduction to Google+
  • GOOGLE+ 201: Getting Around The Plus
  • GOOGLE+ 301: Growing Your Business with Google+
  • GOOGLE+ 401: Advanced Plussing
  • GOOGLE+ 501: HOAs, Tools & Communities
  • GOOGLE+ 601: Google Authorship

Expand the post below by clicking ‘read more’ within the Google+ post, and you’ll find the complete list of topics.


Once you’ve mastered these lessons, you will be well on your way toward a successful Google+ presence for your business, which leads to richer relationships and a prospering profile.
