How to invite people to Google Plus?

Google just launched its new service: Google Plus (Google+). Right now it’s invite-only and a lot of you may be wanting an invite or looking for ways to invite your friends. So here you go.

Method 1:

1. Create a post.
2. Now add the visibility for that post by typing in email addresses or by adding circles.
3. Hit share.

Method 2:

1. Create a new circle. Add people to that circle by dropping them in from the 'find and invite' option.
2. Add an album.
3. Share that album with all the people in that circle.

People in that circle will receive an invite via album sharing request.

Its been said that Google Plus invites are rate limited by hour. So if they can’t click through that first time, they can try again later with same link. (You don’t need to resend it)

UPDATE 1:


Many of you would be getting an error "We've temporarily exceeded our capacity. Please try again soon."

Don't worry. You can try again through the same link some time later. It's probably because of invites rate limited by hour.


UPDATE 2:


Google just announced that they have closed any more invites for the night.


UPDATE 3:


To invite friends, you can simply forward your invite mail (the one you received to get yourself invited) to your friend who you want to invite. - ( Shared by @laughing_candle on twitter )
