Auto Post to Google Plus from WordPress: Other Methods
There are a couple of other options that will allow you to auto-post to Google Plus. They include:
- WPGPlus WordPress Plugin: I haven’t tried this plugin as it currently gets low ratings on WordPress.com. I typically stay away from plugins until they have matured.
- dlvr.it: This is a paid service I discovered here. Since it costs money, I didn’t try this solution either. 🙂
- Next Scripts: This is another paid option. If you don’t mind spending a little cash, this is really the best option for posting to unlimited social networking accounts. It’s only a one-time fee. A free trial is available so check it out!
