What is Google's +1 button

+1 is Google's answer to Facebook's Like push clit - or at to the lowest degree that's what Google are hoping.

They commencement announced it inward March 2011, in addition to receive got at nowadays added it to the measure sharing buttons for Blogger.

The big deviation betwixt +1 in addition to Like is where the results appear:

Provided you're willing to bring the disadvantages of editing your template, it's slowly plenty to add together a customized Tweet or Facebook percentage push clit to your blog.

Adding a customised +1 push clit is real similar.   Just follow these steps:

1   Go to the +1 push clit configuration page Webmaster Central.

2   Choose the basic settings y'all want:  pick button size, annotation and language. 

So far, I've used the medium (20px) size, every bit it seems to check best alongside the other share-items that I've added before.   You should live able to run into it at the overstep of the page if you're reading this article through a web-browser.   Note that this pick is slightly smaller than the default "standard" option.

Annotation is most how your issue of +1s is "noted" inward the push clit - select the unlike options in addition to spotter what happens inward the preview to run into which i y'all desire to use.  Or select None if y'all don't desire the push clit to exhibit a count.

3  Click on Advanced options, in addition to determine what y'all desire to to apply the +1 business office to:

• If y'all desire to to position the +1 push clit where it tin move live used to on the private post URL rather than your whole blog, in addition to then position unopen to text similar PUT-URL-HERE into the "Url to +1" box.   

• If y'all desire readers to +1 your whole blog, merely come inward your blog's web-address (ie URL) into the "URL to +1" box.  
  (NB It may live possible to locomote out it blank inward this case, but I'd rather specify precisely what URL to use, inward illustration anyone hits +1 from an archive page or similar, which has a dissever URL).

iv   Copy the HTML shown.

The code provided is inward 2 parts.  The commencement department is what y'all position into your weblog whereever y'all desire the +1 push clit to appear.   The minute constituent starts alongside a comment:  "<!-- Place this tag afterward the final plusone tag -->".   This agency that:

1. You alone need to position the code underneath that business into your blog once, and 
2. The house to position it is directly afterward the last time you position the +1 push clit code into your blog.  Iif y'all alone add together the push clit once, in addition to then position afterward that time.   

v   Add it to your weblog inward the same way that y'all would add together add whatever other share-this-to-whatever social sharing button, except --- if y'all desire the push clit to recommend individual posts non the whole blog, in addition to then earlier y'all salve the change, supplant the PUT-URL-HERE constituent of

href="PUT-URL-HERE"    (or whatever text y'all used)

  with

expr:href='data:post.url'

What your viewers volition see

Visitors who run into your weblog inward their web-browser (not through an RSS feed reader) volition run into a novel push clit wherever y'all select to position it.   (People who read your weblog thru feed aggregators, or past times e-mail subscription, won't run into it.)


When someone clicks the button, what happens depends on whether they are logged inward to a Google account at the time, in addition to whether that Google concern human relationship has a world profile.

I'm non fifty-fifty going to induce describing all the options possible every bit yet (or this volition never larn published!) but y'all are welcome to induce the i at the overstep of this article to run into how it works

Later on, every bit the push clit starts to live used plenty to furnish meaningful information for Google, potential viewers who run into y'all site listed inward Google search results volition start to run into counts of the issue of times that other people receive got "plus-one'd" y'all inward their search results.
