However, the king of social networks worldwide is Facebook, relegating others to the background or even on the verge of extinction, such as Google Plus.

As you already know when we create a Google account we will have access to a series of different services such as Gmail email, the Google Plus social network or Google Drive, among others. For all these services you will use the same email address..
This makes many users think that in the event that we want to delete our profile from the Google Plus social network, they fear that their Gmail email account may also be deleted during the process. However, this does not have to happen if we delete our profile specifically instead of deleting our entire Google account.
In this way we can make it only delete the social network Google + and its sections instead of the other Google services. Deleting your Google Plus account will cause the deletion of:
- The circles you have created..
- The +1 you have done / have done
- Published publications, comments and collections,
- The content of the chat in Hangouts, Google Talk and Gmail
- You will not be able to use the Share button of Google Plus on any website and all the connection of the applications will be disabled.
Having said this, we show you step by step how to delete your Google Plus profile without having to delete your Gmail account or other Google services:
How to delete your Google + profile without deleting your Gmail account.
