Share circles to help others build their networks - the more useful content they can see, the more useful Google+ is to them! |
6. Share with individuals - just type someone's name when you're sharing a post to let them alone see it
7. Use + and the person's name in a post to bring it to their attention via a notification
8. Create circles and share them to help others build up their own networks - look out for the 'share this circle' link when you're viewing your circles
9. When viewing a circle (click on 'More' and then the circle name to do this), use the slider at the top right to control how much content from that circle appears in your stream
10. Use your Google+ circles to help you manage what's visible in your inbox
11. Edit, restrict, link to, delete, view sharing etc from the drop down arrow on each post
12. Use hashtags on your posts so that you can search for and aggregate topics easily - remember, there's no character limit on your Google+ posts, so you can use multiple tags
13. Save things you've searched for - it means that you can keep track of new content / follow hashtags easily
14. Complete your profile so that others can find you - you can always check how it looks to others using the 'View as...' function on your profile page (it's also worth making your posts public unless there's a reason not to as that way people can see if they're interested in what you're sharing).
