Are you in construction? Do you want to build up your following? Are you looking to connect with the Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) community?

You’re in luck!

Joining our weekly Twitter Chat may just be the right thing for you.

Construction Chat is on Thursday mornings at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time.

How to Join a Chat:

1. Follow the hashtag on Twitter (but don’t forget to add #ConstChat manually after your tweet or we won’t see your tweet).

2. Use Hootsuite or TweetDeck and make a column for #ConstChat (but don’t forget to put #ConstChat manually after your tweet).

3. Go to the Twubs page for #ConstChat.

4. My preferred method is using TweetChat. Just go here and log in with your Twitter account. You can even highlight the moderator so you don’t miss questions.

This week is focused on Google Plus, the social network we tend to ignore and ridicule. But is she really worth ignoring?

We know that if you blog, you want your content to be seen. This is especially true if you have a YouTube channel, but we can save that for another chat.

According to Pam Aungst, one of the ways to help boost your SEO ranking is your social signals from Google Plus. You can hear her talk more about SEO in the link shown in the tweet below.
