I’ve just joined Google + but not really sure how it works ?? If you add photos and leave as public, does this mean anyone who searches Google can find your items or just people you are friends with ???
yes they can
You can show photos of your work in progress saying what your are doing. You can use the url of an item in your shop to show the finished item that will lead back to your shop.
and people can share your links so even more people see your item and link to your shop. you can +1 that’s liking someone’s post just like others can with your posts.
You can just do some written posts as well
You can add friends
There’s even a folksy group and there are lots of groups you can join in with.
If you hoover your mouse/curser over Home at the side of the side it will bring up a long menu/list
If you go down it you’ll see Communities if you click on that it will start to show you different communities/groups you can join up with.
Here is the Best of Folksy one https://plus.google.com/communities/102547299987434126275
This one is great as people share your work from this one and you can share things you like from this one
https://plus.google.com/communities/115500436841863972680
That’s a start for you.
Thanks Eileen, this has helped immensely… I didn’t even know communities existed !!! I can see what I will be doing for most of the weekend
