Recommended Google+ Communities by TygrScott

It’s not a bad statement to say I’m a full-blown addict of Google+. Although I don’t spend as much time as I used to on the network due to business projects, I still spend several hours a week there. In this post, I’m sharing with you all of the communities I currently maintain on Google+. These communities, paired with over 40 pages and a massive Google+ Profile with 110,000,000 views and 108,100 followers really says a ton about my accomplishments on the network.

I’m currently consulting several clients a week with strategies that fit their business needs (you can use Google+ for business or recreation and I have strategies available that will help any situation or need). Want to learn Google+ yourself? Check out my Getting Started on Google+ guide.

That being said, I do run several communities on G+ and wanted to share them with my full audience here at the Top Five Advisor website. I also needed an easy page to send others when I get asked for these links on a daily basis. So let’s get started!

Utah Community

Current Members: 2,667
Official Community Link: Utah Community.
A Shorted Link for Sharing: http://tygr.me/utahcommunity

This community was started in early March after I discovered there wasn’t a suitable community for my favorite state that had my vision.

After launching the community, I invited a few hundred people and they took the community and ran with it. The community has experienced massive growth in a very short time that shocked me!

Tiger of the Day Community

Current Members: 4,829
Official Community Link: Tiger of the Day
A Shortened Link for Sharing: http://tygr.me/tigercommunity

This community was my first community I created on Google+ about a year ago. When I named the community, I had no idea that communities that reach over 500 members have their names locked.

This is now a Big Cat community that accepts submissions of any and all big cats including Tigers, Jaguars and Lions. As you may already know, the Tiger is my favorite animal.

GIFs Community

Current Members: 5,085
Official Community Link: GIFs Community
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/gplusGIFs

I love animated GIF images, that is absolutely no secret. I created this community early March, 2014 because I noticed a horrible trend on Google+ where most GIF image communities were filled with extremely suggestive risque images.

This community was created with strict rules in place against these types of images. This is Google+’s first family-friendly GIF community and people love it. We’ll likely hit 2,000 members by the end of April, 2014.

Viral Hot Trending Community

Current Members: 2,191
Official Community Link: Viral Hot Trending Community
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/viralhot

This community is a spin off my What’s Hot Archive page where I share hot trending content from the Google+ network. I treat it as an archive so others can spot trends.

Those stats you see in the image was actually from one of the most popular posts I’ve had on Google+ with over 8,150 shares and 15,000 +1’s.

Quotes Community

Current Members: 3,718
Official Community Link: Quotes Community
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/gplusquotes

I created this community a few weeks ago to share quotes I find on Google+. I haven’t had the time to build this one out like several of the others because I’ve been working on business projects lately.

The community accepts all sorts of quotes from famous to inspirational with 11 categories to choose from.

HTML5 CSS3 JavaScript Community

Current Members: 7,033
Official Community Link: HTML5 CSS3 JavaScript Community
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/html5css3js

This is a web designer community with a focus on HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript in responsive designs.

Topics can include: HTML, CSS, CSS3, JS, Javascript, Web Development, Front End, Open Source, webGL, Google chrome extensions, Browsers, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera, Development, Code, Coffeescript, Responsive Design, Web Tools, Web applications, w3c standards and others.

Relationship Internet Marketing

Current Members: 2,623
Official Community Link: Relationship Internet Marketing
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/relationsmarketing

True with any successful Internet marketer online, we never stop learning. In March – April, 2014 I have been studying a ton about methods of Internet marketing and sales and discovered I have a passion for the art of establishing real meaningful relationships with people. After a ton of testing, I found the saying to be true: People buy people before they buy products.

I created this community to test interest and found there’s quite a few people out there that love relationship marketing.

Animal and Landscape Animations Community

Current Members: 4,966
Official Community Link: Animal and Landscape Animations
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/animalanimations

This community is similar to my newer GIFs community but focuses strictly on animals, people, and landscape animations. One of my favorite GIFs to watch are landscape waterfall type animations.

This is my 2nd oldest community I have on Google+ and post to it at least weekly.

Share Your Page Community or Circles Community

Current Members: 2,196
Official Community Link: Share Your Page Community Circles
Shortened Link: http://tygr.me/shareiton

This community is built to share pages, communities, or circle shares. One unique feature of Google+ is the ability to share pages and communities anywhere you want, including to other communities.

You can use this community to give your page or community an added boost of visibility. I do plan on growing this community to thousands within the year.

Other Communities

These are my other communities that I have that are part of future projects and are waiting for me to give publicity to.

Wallpapers Fonts Icons Community – A community for wallpapers, fonts and icons. Short URL: http://tygr.me/wallpaperfontsicons
CEO Entrepreneurs Small Business – A community for small business owners. Short URL: http://tygr.me/bizcommunity
Design Icons Graphics Inspiration – A community for design inspiration with icons and graphics. THis one should be link heavy with several direct submissions. Short URL: http://tygr.me/designiconsgraphics
Olympics – Obviously this one is seasonal. I plan to promote the heck out of this one when the Rio Summer Games of 2016 is closer. Short URL: http://tygr.me/olympicscommunity
Blogging Experts – I have a ton of plans for this community. It is a matter of finding the time to get it more visible to the public. Short URL: http://tygr.me/bloggingexperts

Want to Get Involved?

Time is of the issue. I do pop in to the communities at least on a weekly basis to inspect for spam and off-topic content to remove. Some communities have strict policies that, if violated, result in immediate bans. If there are communities you’d like volunteer to help moderate, please let me know. Several of these communities are niche / business focused that can position you to be an authority that other people look to for answers. This usually leads down the path of paid work.

If you have any questions or remarks, please leave a comment below. As always, consider sharing to your favorite social networks to help me spread the word about my G+ communities.
