I’ve just finished implementing my Google +1 button on my website. You should see it at the top of this page in the header. I’m excited to track the SEO implications of this new tool / resource to see exactly how it plays out.
Aptly put on Google’s +1 homepage, ‘The +1 button is shorthand for “this is pretty cool” or “you should check this out.”‘
Going a bit further, it’s defined as: Click +1 to publicly give something your stamp of approval. Your +1′s can help friends, contacts, and others on the web find the best stuff when they search.
Essentially, when you +1 something you’re placing a little sticky note on it so that whenever any of your friends happen upon the link or website, it will say “John Smith +1′d this”. I’m going to track this to see if it has any impact on my overall positioning in the SERPs (search engine results pages).
Feel free to click the little +1 at the top there also. If you found this helpful, of course.
I lack the skill to write like this, but i haven’t had any issues in the past. May i repost this for my own readers?
