Google Plus: hide the number of hits - how it works
For more privacy, you can hide the number of hits in your Google Plus profile. In this practical tip we will show you how.
Hide views in Google Plus
By default, Google+ shows the number of visits to your profile for each user. To deactivate the feature, follow these instructions:
- Log in to your Google account.
- Click on your profile picture in the top right corner and then on the "Account" link.
- Then select "Edit settings" under "Google+ settings".
- Scroll down here to the section "Profile".
- Then remove the checkmark next to the option "Show how often my profile and its contents were viewed". Your profile settings will then be updated automatically.
