How will Google's +1 feature affect our SEO?

**blackberryos.com** · 04-05-2011 05:17 AM

I have heard that Google may use the new +1 feature to factor in website ranking, ect. How will this affect us, and what should we do to prepare?

Thanks.

It's just another 'like' system to me. We'll see about adding it into the social bookmarks when its officially released.

That would be great.

What do you think about how they are saying that it may be used as part of the SEO algorithm?

It's pure speculation at this point. Google is just PO'ed that facebook is stealing all their traffic and they are hoping this will help turn the tides.

Frankly, i know more people with FB account than a google account, so it may be a wash.

I signed up as part of the beta testers of +1 and noticed that upon clicking on the +1 icon and window comes up where you can setup a Google account.

Maybe if Google can get enough profiles they will try to merge email with social networking.

It's there.
It will be a good thing if vbseo implements this.

For sure Brian, let's get this implemented in the next update if possible. The +1 is going to be a contender.
