How To Use Blogger And Google+ Comments System Together on Your Blog

Few months ago Blogger Developer team introduced Google+ commenting system for Blogger Blogs. Google+ commenting system helps your visitors to share your content on Google+ network(in his/her circle) and increases your blog traffic as well. But the major problem is that commenting on Google+ needs a Google+ account and there are may be many visitors that don't have Google+ account.
