Before Google Plus, Facebook and Twitter were the most preferred. Google+ will make people focus and Facebook the more on their personal lives. Google+ is actually more about Twitter’s franchise, in the great middle of indiscriminate social networking.

Facebook rolled out a new “Facebook for Business” section that can guide brands on Facebook marketing, by providing all the info they need to set up and build their businesses on Facebook.
