Circles? A lot of circles!
One of the most important features of Google+ are the circles.
The sum of the people contained in all the circles should not exceed the 5.000 mark as directed by Google+. In other words, one can be followed by a million people (e.g. Britney Spears) but can only have up to 5.000 people in her/his circles. Here you can find more informations about Google Circles.
CirclesCount? Why should someone count the circles?
At CircleCount.com we are counting the circles where you are included. That means that this number represents the number of persons who are following your posts at Google+.
Not only you but also the number of followers of other persons. If your profile isn't tracked already, you can easily add the url of your profile at Google and we will start tracking your CircleCount.
What is it all about?
The number of followers is a metric to measure the influence of a person at Google+. The higher the number the higher the influence of this person since all the followers will possibly read the posts this person.
We've added some more metrics to measure the influence of a person, like the average number of +1, comments or reshares a person gets for each post. You can find several rankings on CircleCount.com, e.g. the most followed and following persons or the most popular persons at Google+.
But at the end it's just for fun! ;)
