Is someone annoying you on google plus or you are not interested in what they are sharing? Google+ understands your concern and you have two options to deal with this – Ignore a person or totally block a person.

#1 Ignore a person on google plus (A lighter option without totally blocking them)

• Ignoring can be done in few ways
• When you see a notification about a person in your Google bar, you’ll see a ignore link next to it
• Click on the incoming link on the top left and you’ll find a ignore link next to each post in the incoming stream
• From your circles, highlight the person you want to ignore and click on the ignore link on the top right
• To un-ignore or reverse the action, choose the people you ignored in the circles, click on the More Actions link on the top right, in the dialog click on the un-ignore link
• It means you are not interested in them or what they are sharing (they may be a stranger)
• You won’t see any of their posts
• You won’t see any of their activities through notifications (less distraction)
• You won’t see them in your circles (they’ll hidden from your circles, less number of people to deal with)
• They won’t know you ignored them

#2 Block a person on google plus (A stronger option for getting rid of him/her and don’t want to deal with him anymore at anytime)

• Blocking is very easy, click on the person you want to block – in their profile you’ll see a Block <name> option on the bottom left, clicking on it will block after confirmation
• If you changed your mind or did by mistake, you can go back to their profile, click on the Blocked button on the top right of his/her profile and unblock them again
• They are removed from your circles
• They are removed from your extended circles
• No posts of theirs appears in your in-stream
• They won’t see your posts either
• They won’t be able to comment on your posts
• They won’t know you blocked them

This is one more step that would prevent spam in google+ and internet marketers abusing social networks.
