I've Got It
i got some random pop up during a video and i couldnt get out of it till i agreed to google+. is that bs required. honestly it's more junk added to my scrolling windows that i dont need. + i seen some channels lose all thier subs due to google+ issues. =p
 
It's not required, no.

It's advised though. That social network plays a not-insignificant role in YouTube's video-scoring algorithm.



I just did it then removed it again. Are you saying having Google + linked is a good thing ? "YouTube's video-scoring algorithm" ?
 
Yes, it's a good thing. Having Google+ activity will have a positive impact on your channel and video's visibility.

Heck, the platform itself would be so bad is people actually used it :)



in that case i will set it up again. Are there any downsides to this ?

Going to be a strange question but i have been reading the email i got from google and it says link your page with google + To help SEO it says Link to your website from your Google+ page's profile. I take it because its my YT page that bits done automatically?

also is there anything i need to change on my YT channel to link them or is that bit done also ?
