How do I find out the total number of Google +1's my website has?
-
I can't for the life of me figure how to see the total number of Google +1's my site has.
Yes, I've tried Webmaster Tools, but it only shows +1's from the past 30 days. All days prior to that are grayed out.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I'll keep working on it. When i get something that will give you all 10,000 pages, I'll send you a private message.
Thank you for the vote of enthusiasm Jennifer!

Whoa! You built an app that quick to help answer this question (and obviously get the information in general). That is so cool! I just tried the app, it's neat. Thanks for doing this!
-
Well my site has over 10,000 pages, so I probably shouldn't do that
Either way, I had forgotten that OSE gives me the +1's for my top 25 pages. Since those are the most likely to get +1'd anyway (at least that's my guess), it gives me a good idea.
If for nothing else, thanks for that reminder.
And keep working on your +1 app, you'd have something very unique if you built the first user-friendly way to get complete +1 data, especially since Google's own Webmaster Tools can't seem to do it!

I tried that, but it looks like it only allows me to pull data from the last 30 days.

Oh yes, I realize the call only gets it for that specific domain. The thing you could could do is download a full list of the URL's in your domain, and paste them into the textbox. Then put that into Excel and run a sum on the count column. Sorry if that didn't make sense. If I get my site crawler operational, I may be able to implement a way to just put in the top domain and have it find all the other pages and tally them for you. But as of now, the list is the best I can do.
for instance.
"http://www.apple.com/",13476
"http://www.apple.com/mac/",257
"http://www.apple.com/ipod/",134
The export tool from OSE should have all your pages listed. Given it's not a huge domain, the tool should be able to handle it.
Let me know how you make out, if not, I'll have time tomorrow night or maybe Sunday to improve the functionality.
-
Ah ha! The backslash is the secret.
Here are the results for Apple: "http://www.apple.com/",13476
Unfortunately, that's roughly the same figure I get from OSE (13,472), so I think your application is also only pulling data for the home page.
Either that, or I'm misreading OSE, and it really is pulling +1 data for the entire domain...
-
I didn't get anything for apple.com either. But I checked opensiteexplorer. It looks like the backslash needs to be used.
"http://www.apple.com/",13476

Cool idea, but it doesn't seem to be working for me.
For example, here's the results I got for Apple:
-
Try Google Webmaster Tools

If you exported a document with all the url's of your domain, do you think this spreadsheet program would work? I fooled with it a little, but couldn't get the function to work. There's a Curl call you could try if you're a programmer

Edit: Since I'm a programmer, I thought I'd see if I could make it work. Here's a really quick application of it.

So it does. And the link report only gives the social information on the top 25 pages of your domain... Sorry about that!
-
Thanks, Andrew. I just tried that, but it seems like OSE only gives +1 data for the exact URL.
I need +1 data for the entire domain.

If you have a pro account for SEOmoz, http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/ will give you Facebook, Twitter and Google +1 statistics. I'm not sure how long it takes for them to find them though.
Edit From my reply: I wrote a tool myself as a starting point. http://www.touchoftechnology.com/google-plus-1-counter-for-list-of-urls/

Authorship Implementation - Is it needed to place Rel='Publisher' on every page on eCommerce
Hi, On my eCommerce site I've placed rel='publisher' only on the homepage and rel='author' on all of the article pages. Is that the way to do it? Do I need to add rel='publisher' also on the article pages besides for rel='author'? P.S
Social Media | | BeytzNet
Even though I placed rel='publisher' only on the homepage, when I use Google's test tool (http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets) I see my publisher ID also on product category pages (that don't have publisher nor author on them but do have regular +1 buttons). How is that? (bacuase of the +1 button)1 -
Google+, Link from My Site to Author's Google+ Page or to Company Google+
Recently I verified authorship for my Website. So the image from my personal Google+ account appears in search results. My website has a Google+ social media button. Should the link point to my corporate Google+ account or to my personal Google+ account? What is more credible from Google's point of view? What are best practices for this issue? Look forward to hearing from the MOZ community. THANKS!!!

Does adding a twitter or facebook feed to a website help rankings in regards of providing fresh content?
I have been asked if this is a sufficient way to provide fresh content to a website, however I am unsure if Google considers this as "fresh content", and I can't seem to come across a clear answer. Any thoughts?

Thoughts on Google+ influence on SERPs?
I just read this article over on Read Write Web: http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_is_going_to_mess_up_the_internet.php The part that made me raise an eyebrow is in the section "Google+ Hates the Internet". I just tested the exact term the author used and his article does show up first, followed by two G+ listings. I don't have enough action going on in my G+ accounts to even test this, let alone see it, but was wondering if anyone else has seen it or tested it? Perhaps this in fact, is Google's way of using "social proof" to drive valuable content up? Seems like it, which is good. However, I can also see how it can be abused to further game and manipulate SERPs. Thoughts?
