Google+ Is Gaining Speed!

Experts belive that Google+ is gaining speed. Mission of Google+ is simple i.e. to compete with the leading social network Facebook.

Paul Allen a researcher disclosed the amazing growth rate of Google+ in one of his analysis. It mentioned that Google+ has reached 62 million registered users. More important, one-quarter of all users signed up in  December alone. This seems to be a good new year gift for the Google. If we analyse the published growth by the company itself, in July, Google said Google+ had 10 million members. In October, the number was 40 million. And beyond that Google does not supply additional information about the population of Google+.

In Mr. Allen’s analysis, the high percentage of new users matters, because it would mean Google is getting people to join at an accelerating rate. “It’s gaining 625,000 people a day,” Mr. Allen said in an interview. “In the last week of November it was signing up 199,000 a day.” By the end of this month, Mr. Allen thinks Google+ will have 65 million users. When Google next announces its earnings in mid-January, he said, “I expect Larry Page will announce they have 75 million people.”

“Projecting my numbers linearly, they’ll have 293 million people by the end of 2012,” Mr. Allen said. But, he  added that he thinks things will really speed up, to 400 million users. “I’m very bullish,” he said.

Well, it seems that Google+ is moving towards its defined and planned goals.
