Google Plus vs Facebook Features

Facebook has more users for sure but Google+ has a higher caliber of user. I am not saying drop facebook by any means, use both, share your content to both, connect with people on both.

Facebook Friends list is just that, one list, google plus has circles – you can have as many circles as you want and name them what ever you want. Very Powerful. See my post on Google Plus Marketing

Facebook has groups, Google Plus Has Communities. Very similar, but as a community owner you have the ability to email your Google+ community members when you post content. Extremely powerful, but not to be abused, strategically email only posts of extreme value.

Facebook has Pages, Google + also has pages. Similar again.

Google Plus has several features that are an advantage over Facebook:

is connected to your YouTube account
has a links list on your profile
allows you to upload gif's
Ranks your post in Google to your followers
Ability to have multiple circles(friends lists) that you can name
Ability to email to members of communities and pages.
Ability to edit your posts.
Hangout chat that can be easily turned to video chat. (Facebook has a similar feature but it always had an error for me)

Google Plus vs Facebook for Business

Here's the thing. I'm not saying drop Facebook and adopt Google Plus. Just the contrary. Use both. When you create valuable content, training and teaching you target market. Post it to both, increase your exposure. You will find more followers.
