How To Add Google’s +1 Button To Your Site (In Preparation For When Business Pages Launch On G+)
Earlier this year in March, Google announced the appearance of a “+1″ button in competition to the “Like” and “Follow” buttons offered by Facebook and Twitter. This button enables Google to expose a voting system that allows you to recommend content to friends and other Internet users. 
Google describes the +1 button as short for “this is pretty cool” or “you should check this out.”, as its described on their Google +1 page. The +1 button acts as a recommendation vote that can help others on the web find the best stuff when they search. The number of recommendations does not show up in Google results yet, but Google says it will most certainly be there in the future.
If you manage your own site at your venue or promotions company, or you’re just one of those types who like to get on top of things the moment they come out so you can capitalise on them instantly, you can get the +1 button code and learn more about implementation on Google’s +1 site or alternatively use the following piece of code:
- <!– Place this tag in your head or just before your close body tag –>
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js”></script>
<!– Place this tag where you want the 1 button to render –>
<g:plusone href=”YOUR_WEBPAGE_LINK”></g:plusone>
