Heike Matthiesen: Hello Stage interview




HEIKE, YOU HAVE QUITE A FOLLOWING ON GOOGLE+ - WHEN DID YOU START AND WHAT DO YOU POST ABOUT?
I was there from day 3 (!) and for a long time one of the very few classical musicians there. I mainly post about music, especially classical guitar, also nerdy stuff, but almost never about myself. I post concert dates and all other necessary ego-spam on my page, not on the profile. I call Facebook "my little bar around the corner", Twitter "my newspaper" andGoogle+ "the fair", so I strictly try to be a classical music ambassador. Obviously I pop up in their recommendation list from time to time, right now I have 140 000 followers, that's unbeliavable for me too!
Musicians should not ignore Google+ : by using it you give your information to the biggest search engine there is, so please fill out your profiles in as much detail as possible! (tip: you automatically have a Google+ that is connected to your Youtube channel).
