Anybody here also posting to Google+ these days?

After avoiding most social media I have finally gotten involved with posting images on Google+. Wondering if any other folks from NPN are active there?

Seems to be very photographer-centric.

I am cross posting many of my images here over there too.

I haven't used it. I gave in last year and started posting on Facebook. I don't know what the best solution is, but that is the route I am going for now.

Rob, how has Facebook been for you?
I never saw myself really getting into social media. However since I have a Google Nexus device and a blog on Blogger it links your profile to Google+. I recently saw that my profile had over 100,000 views-and that is with zero G+ content.

That made me give it a try. In the month or so I have been at it I have gotten to over 200,000 views. That is many times the traffic my blog gets.

So I will stay with it and see what happens.

Good luck, Darren. While my fan base is growing on Facebook, sales aren't. I have made a couple of sales, and fielded many requests. I usually point people to my page at FineArtAmerica.com and I assume it is the prices that deter buyers. My prices are inline with others from the region. I am considering another pricing scheme, but haven't taken the time to set it up.
