Google+ Mobbed after Doors Opened for Public

Everyone knows that Google launch a Google+ (PLUS) social networking site to compete the “Facebook”.  There are many difference are there in both of the social networking sites and both have its own advantage and disadvantage. Over here Google+ was mobbed with visitors after the social network opened its doors to the public last week, industry tracker Experian Hitwise reported.


Online traffic to Google's nascent social network rocketed 1,269 percent recently, a day after the Internet titan removed the need to be invited in order to join, according to Hitwise research director Heather Dougherty. The number of visits to Google+ tallied nearly 15 million for the week in a leap from the approximately 1.1 million logged in the prior week, Hitwise analysts concluded. Google+ went from ranking as 54th most visited site in our Social Networking and Forums category to 8th place," Dougherty said in a blog post. Google on Sept. 20th opened google.com/+ to the public as it ramped up its challenge to leading social network Facebook.

The announcement came as part of a list of improvements Google is making to the social network it launched in an invitation-only test format on June 28. Zynga recently added its most popular title -- City Ville -- to games that can be played at the Google+."It's no secret we're big fans of Google+ here at Zynga," the San Francisco-based startup said in a blog post."Last month we announced that we partnered with Google to bring Zynga Poker to Google+, and today we're excited to add CityVille+ to the new game platform," the message continued. In a month of August Google+ is trying to open a gaming zone at the fast growing social network vying with facebook to be the server for the people’s online lives.
