    At Present, Facebook is on the top of all social networking websites. But Google Plus also becomes famous in very lesser time. And it is effective on both ways either SMO or SEO. In SMO, it generated huge amount of visitors to your website whereas in SEO, it helps to increase in Google Ranking.

    Everyone is on the Facebook band wagon now. But just think back to when Myspace was at it's peak popularity and Facebook was the newcomer. Many people dismissed Facebook then too. But now Facebook is on top and Myspace is no longer a contender. Google+ is the same way. Fast forward five years and Google+ may be the next Facebook.

    Google + is a pale shadow of what Facebook is, and I can tell you why. Quite simply they have no real API. Its the API that made Facebook what it is today. Because of there API developers jumped in and created games, apps, and tons of things to interact with. Google does not have any real API to do any complex things like you can with Facebook.

    Im sorry to say but when it comes to Social Networking Google just does not 'get it'.

    I found with Circles, Google+ is making it easier to share different content with the right people I intend it to be seen by.

    Yes, Facebook has lists, but it’s not as easy and upfront as Circles. For me it’s powerful to be able to separate with ease what’s appropriate for people I have a professional relationship with, and what’s appropriate for those I joke around with.

    It’s sharing in the same way we do everyday. We don’t have the same type of relationship with each person we interact with, so why should we with our social networks?

    It’s not a totally new concept but it is emphasized in Google+.
    Hangouts is a cool feature allowing you to video with up to 10 people and even watch Youtube videos.

    Even though Facebook launched one on one video chat, the two are completely different concepts. I already use one on one video chat in Gmail quite a bit, so as soon as I installed Facebook’s video chat I tested it, but other than that I don’t see myself using it much.

    Where Hangouts is different is that it gives you the ability to do just that, hang out, bump into and interact with your people online.

    Despite all of these features, where I feel Google+’s real advantage over Facebook is expectations. Google+ has the ability to change and adapt without as much scrutiny, because people aren’t invested yet the way they are in Facebook. This, coupled with Google’s interest in user feedback is what I believe make it the first real threat to Facebook.

    After all, I’ve always felt when Google launches a new product it’s like they are running it by me. With Facebook I feel like they are telling me what I want. That being said, after I post this blog, I’ll make sure I update my Facebook Status, not my Google+ Stream. Wonder how much that will change in a year?
