Add Google+ Comments To Your Site

Inline image 1

On the 18th April 2013 Google announced that they have made a Google Plus commenting system which you can have on your website just like the Facebook comments. This allows people to come to your site and when they comment on an article this comment will be shared on Google plus.

Google+ Comments

The difference that Google plus comments has over Facebook comments is a massive benefit of including all comments from Google plus on your page. This means that if someone shares your article on Google plus it will appear in your commenting system, if this then leads to a conversation happening on Google Plus about your article this will also appear on your comment system. So all conversations that are happening about your page will come through and be displayed on your website. This allows you to keep in touch with every conversation that is happening on Google plus about your page.

This solves the problem of multiple conversations happening in different places, your comment system, your personal Google+ page, your blog Google+ page, Google+ community pages, other people sharing your articles on their page. All of these conversations will be joined together on your blog, allowing you to keep track of all of them in one place. With most conversations about articles happening on social media now this can be a massive benefit to your blog on Google+.

When someone comments on your article they are given the choice if they want to share their comment publicly or with specific circles, which means when someone comments they are also sharing your articles.
