My understanding is that when I post something to public, it shows up on my public profile page.
When I post something to a circle, only the people following me in that circle sees it. I can inform people about it who aren't following me, but ill rarely use that feature since that will likely be seen as spam. There's a way for people to prevent resharing in a circle I believe, but they can always capture the screenshot.
