What do you think Google+ has to do to rise up?

[jessicarousey]

Since most people think that google+ is below the downhill and nothing compared to other big social networking sites. What do you think google has to do with it to rise it up from the graveyard and actually be with one of the big names in social media sites?

note: I still use it though.

They won't. They already disband the Google+ team. It's running on life support and will eventually be phased out like Google does to all it's failed products.

You know what, it's kind of a good thing I came across your comment. I read some months ago that Google+ is only underrated or often taken for granted. And having read your post, I dont know why, but I was surprised. Perhaps because I still use it.

Same situation here, I've also read before that they are only underrated. But then it made me question the thought when I've already read more statements that is already on a downhill slope, in which led me posting this.

Oh, didn't know they already disbaned their team. My account is still currently active though, is it a wise move to take advantage of it still? (backlinks, sharing, etc.) or is it a complete waste of time?

I always go by the 80/20 rule. 20% of your effort is going to produce 80% of your results. So stick with the 20%. To me Google+ is a total waist of time.

Now some people will tell you to throw as much #$#&@ at the wall and see what sticks. These people are never successful. Work smart instead.

It was never useful for those things.
