This is a great way to streamline your information. visit: www.thegoldmedalmarketer.com

4. Decide On What To Post As with any social network, the rule of thumb is to always give value. Before you post anything, ask yourself if it is going to be beneficial, useful or value to others. Even though you can share selectively between friends, acquaintances, family members and people you are following just be careful about what you post to make something of value. visit: www.thegoldmedalmarketer.com

7. The Plus One Button So we have all seen the Google +1 button…it was actually introduced long before Google announced their social network. if you’ve done any type of Google search you’ve seen it pop up on the side of the Google.com search engine results. The Google +1 button is a way to “vote for” or “like” content. It’s Google’s version of the Facebook “Like” button. visit: www.thegoldmedalmarketer.com

Slide 16: 

There are a number of reason why as network marketers we should start implementing Google Plus. As a member of the community you will get a chance to share content, provide value, and comment on other people’s content. The comment that you just “Plus One’d” is going to show up in your G+ stream along with the site. visit: www.thegoldmedalmarketer.com

8. Positioning Yourself For An SEO Explosion? While we are all still waiting to see just how the Google + 1 button and social network is going to factor in to our search engine optimization, Google has stated that they are somehow going to integrate G+ data to influence ranking and SEO . We could assume that the more Google + votes you get the more SEO benefits you’ll see as a result. So if you are wondering if you should show up to the party, I say add me to the guest list. visit: www.thegoldmedalmarketer.com

Slide 18: 

So you could interpret that to mean sites that get more plus one votes could see an SEO benefit down the line. The bottom line is this…marketers leverage the power of the Internet through building relationships and connections and anytime you can take advantage of these connections to influence your Google’s authority you shouldn’t take it lightly. visit: www.thegoldmedalmarketer.com
