SLIDES OF AWESOME

Only the first 77 characters show in a Google+ search, so make them impactful, not hard sell. Use hyperlinks. Only public updates will show in search results.

  • Include links to your website and other social media profiles.
  • Claim Google authorship
  • Edit posts later
  • Use hashtags
  • Use keywords

Lots of great information, but I began weeping in the back when I realized that I can’t handle mastering one more social media platform. Someone send another croissant to the back, please!
