Are you a +1? Do you +1? Now you can! A couple months ago I wrote a blog introducing Google's new +1 Feature similar to Facebook's "like" button. Now Google is ready to roll it out.
You do need a Google Profile to start "+1" -ing things but go for it! It's a great way to get yourself out there more too! Simply go to Google and Sign UP! Having a Google account and profile is a great SEO tool because you can add all your websites, social media sites and bio to your profile for others to find you.
REMEMBER - GOOGLE LOVE'S IT'S OWN TOOLS!! - USE THEM
Want to be found? Start asking some of your colleagues and friends to +1 your site, your social media sites and more. There is already a Facebook Friday Group - Why not a +1 Group to encourage others to like and approve your sites? Here it is! - Our first Google PLUS 1 Group! Join today and help others.
You can also add the +1 button to your WordPress blog and other websites. For WP there is a plug in you simply have to install (really easy) and there are scripts for websites. I am still working with getting it on the AR blogs but it may be a programming issue that they will have to install like the facebook LIKE button.
"Adding the +1 button could help your site to stand out by putting personal recommendations right at the moment of decision, on Google search. So if you have users who are fans of your content, encourage them to add their voice with +1!" According to Google's Webmaster Central Blog by Kari Wilson
So what are you waiting for? Start +1ing NOW!
Here are some great sites I recommend Googling that I approve to +1!! :)
