Google Plus (Google+) For Healthcare and Hospital Marketers

Posted by: Neil James // February 15th, 2012

Just when you thought you got this Facebook and Twitter thing figured out, here comes Google+ (or Google Plus) – Google’s latest foray into social networking. According to Hubspot, nearly 40 million users have hopped on the Google+ Train, generating nearly seven million weekly visits!

In a new article for Wax Impressions, Mike Sherman discusses what healthcare and marketers about how Google+ might impact their hospital’s social media strategy. Sherman discusses how, unlike Facebook and Twitter, Google+ has a far greater potential impact on search results. Further, Sherman states, the “+1” and “Circling” capabilities of Google+ make it easier than ever for patients to share their clinical experiences with their social networks.
