Should I post my upcoming blog series on my blog or on Google+
-
I am in the process of writing a series of blog posts covering one subject in more detail.
Normally, I would just post my blog posts on my blog, but I have heard and read recently that posting content on Google+ is having very good results.
So should I post this series exclusively on my Google+ pages instead with a link back to my blog and site or just focus on posting on my blog as I have done before?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

If you want people to visit your Google+ page then post it there. If you want people visiting your website then post it on your blog.
Personally, I would be posting it on my website. Then any visitor, links, likes, tweets will contribute to my site rather than to a Google+ page that I don't control.

Post on your website, put a snippet and a link on your G+

I would post the blog on your website but then write an eye-catching summary on G+ with a link back to each of your blog posts after you publish each one.
I would also mention them on FB and Twitter, etc. and do the same. Not only is this good for SEO, but if you have a high quality blog post, you can generate referral traffic and interest with these posts.

Ask yourself, who is your audience? Are they on G+? If so writing stuff on G+ might be a good idea, however if your audience is not there I would suggest leaving it on your blog.
In general as well, I agree with EGOL by leaving it on your own website you are leaving the opportunity for the post to be shared not just on G+, but on FB, Twitter, and now even Pinterest. Only on very special circumstances, would I suggest writing a full-length post on G+.

Thanks to all of you for your answers and with the clarity of your responses which make total sense. Blogging on the blog it is.

Much appreciated.
