Number of users
If we compare users of both of these special networks, we will see that Google+ has mostly young and male users whereas Users of Facebook are not restricted to gender. There are more diverse users and they have been a part of this network for years. Although the total number of users of Google+ seem large as 100M, but they are not making a large interactive audience due to less use of google.
User time per month
It is another comparable factor that is making Facebook more prominent. Number of users time per month on Facebook is much larger than the Google +. People do not think even to share a photo with their circles but they directly take pictures and upload them on Facebook. According to the statistical analysis; 405 minutes per month is the average user time per month recorded for Facebook and for Google it’s just 3 minutes.

Business
In terms of the business, Facebook offers a huge opportunity to market products and to promote business through community and brand pages. Almost 96% brands use Facebook whereas Google+ has only 61% brands . But Google is trying to use Google+ for promoting business as it has more control over sharing and searching. Now Google+ is just Geek based and the top brand using it are Android, Mashable and the Google chrome. On the other side, Facebook has hundreds of brands and the top one is Coca cola. These companies are making huge business through Facebook.
Both Google+ and Facebook are used by millions of users, but Facebook is the largest one and Google+ is enhancing its features and trying to overcome its drawbacks to become one of the largest Social media networks. Different experts have different reviews, but most of them are predicting that Google+ will one day take the place of Facebook. Do let us know your views in comments section

I think Google + more handy, when it comes e-commerce and marketing . Challenge for Google+ is to differentiate itself with Facebook. Circles, Hangout might be significant efforts. Moreover Google+ has assets of Google like adwords, youtube,.. so Google+ might get mightier with increasing active user and e-commerce marketing. Challenge before FB ,how it going to redefine itself to audience. Because Even FB needs to differentiate from the crowd to stay in Lead.
