Google+: How To Mention People In Blogger Posts


You can now add a link to a Google+ profile or page when you want to mention someone in a post on your Blogger blog. Google announced the new feature as a new way to grab someone’s attention from a Blogspot blog. If you share your post from Blogger to Google+ after mentioning someone, Google makes it easier to notify your mentions by including them in the sharebox.


So,  How Do I Mention Someone in My Posts?

==> Log in to your Blogger dashboard and click on "New Post"

==> To mention someone, just type “+” before their name while you’re using the Blogger post editor.



==> The profile or page will show up as a link in your published post.

After you might have published the post, hovering over the link to the Google+ profile or page will show a card with more info and an ‘Add to circles’ button. Clicking the link takes you straight to the Google+ profile or page.

So, whether you want to credit a co-author (thanks +Adesoji Adegbulu  !) or me ( +Jide Ogunsanya  ), ask a question, or just kick off a conversation, connect your blog to Google+ and try mentioning someone in your next post!

Cool..huh? Please, let me hear from you.
