Google+ will have a significant growth
Up till now, Google+ has been sort of overshadowed by Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. From a business point of view, 2014 might witness a shift in this trend. Businesses are going to make more use of Google + than they are doing right now. Why? Because being active on Google’s social platform can actually improve SEO, meaning you enjoy a higher rank on the search engines’ results pages or SERPs.
Google+ for business is a little known secret up until now so make sure to utilize it to the utmost and be really active on it, and you might actually come out on top of the SERPs.
