Add Google + button link to google page and not link
-
Hello SEOOOOOOOOO moz people !
I was wondering if you know how can I add Google + button to my page
I tried to set it up in google page http://awesomescreenshot.com/08d1a9hmef
https://plus.google.com/b/109790526955470383191/109790526955470383191/posts
But i would like to link the button to my google + fan page https://plus.google.com/b/109790526955470383191/109790526955470383191/about and not the url of the page.
As our website is indeed 12 websites if you go to http://www.ibremarketing.com you don't have the same +1 than http://www.ibremarketing.com/me or http://www.ibremarketing.com/ma
Any idea of how to do it ?
It would be amazing

Nice to hear that and proud to help! nos vemos

Hello !
Tks a lot for your help Nathan and Cyrius. Now it's working fine (liking the page is adding a like in the fanpage and vice versa)
I did not change anything. Maybe Google just needed time.
Tks a lot
So the answer to my question would be: to use the google plugin linked to your website url and then setup properly your google page.
-
As far as I can tell you have everything set up correctly, and it's doubtful setting it up a different way will produce significantly different results, so I'd say you're good!
-
Hello !
So if I understand properly, we do not know why there is a slight difference between the +1 result into Google page and the one in our website ?
But wich one will you recommand to use ?
Tks a lot for your help !
-
Typically, if I understand correctly, the number of +1's on your Google+ profile closely reflect the # of +1s associated with the homepage of your website.
What's interesting is that Google reports 16 +1's to your homepage through thier API, which we can see through Open Site Explorer: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/pages.html?site=www.ibremarketing.com%2F
You have everything set up correctly as far as I can tell. Not sure why there is a difference. It could be because of caching or differences in the way the widget reports +1's from the web app. Regardless, the difference isn't enough to cause concern.
As far as helping you in rankings, to be honest the effect is likely small at this point. We know Google uses G+ to index new content, and it can play a significant factor in search personalization. At this point I would work on promoting yourself for more visibility, and eventually you'll may see the influence of Google+ shares.
Hope this helps! Best of luck.

I think that the answer to the re-question in your last reply is Yes.
-
Hello
Thanks for your help (Nathan also by the way ;p)
- On me company website I added a Google + Plugin.
- I link this one to my url www.ibremarketing.com
- My google page is properly linked to my website
However, I have 15 Google like on the website and just 12 on the google + page
So my question is: If i set up google plugin with the google page url will google understands that people are liking my website and use it improve my ranking ?
Right now it looks like the plugin is considering the google page different than my website url, even if both are linked together.
Hope you can give me a hand !
Tks a lot

Hi Flo,
Sorry, I've read through this thread twice, and I'm a little confused. Could you give an example URL, and possibly restate the question? More than happy to help.
Thanks.
-
Well... i'm not sure 100%
but I think that is better to have a community in G+ and link your url, but maybe i'm wrong
really i not tested two options face off... must to look this deeper...
-
Hello !
Can someone else give us a hand to be sure ?
-
You think it's better to link to google + then the page ?
Because I did the reverse. I link to the page (.com) and .com is supposed to be linked to the website.
Mum ... How can we be sure of that ?
-
Exactly Flo!!!
That's what I tried to say: Is not the same a "+1 to an URL" with a "+1 to a G+Page"
You can set it to your .com or set it to your G+Page url, To use both, you must use the Badge, not the Button
The best option I think is set the +1 to the Google Plus Page, and link it to your website url
Sorry for don't explain me clearly enough...
-
Hello Natan !
But it's strange because I see the code working fine
http://awesomescreenshot.com/01b1aaqpc0
However I do not see exactly the same on the page
http://awesomescreenshot.com/0471aaqb89
Do you think iit's considering the G page and my website page as different ?
-
Hi! (Mira, alguien que habla español, si en realidad somos muchos)
So... i don't know if you can improve the Badge onto your page, but i think is the better option if possible https://developers.google.com/+/web/badge/
Because it includes +1 to url and circles for the page
if not possible, you must decide what to do, because the button can be linked to an url, or to the url when it appears.
If set the box "URL to +1" with http://www.ibremarketing.com" i actually can see the 12 +1 you have
-
Hola !
No hay problema se puede solucionar en espanol tmb ! Ja jaja
But I saw he difference between both and as the website is linked to google + fan page http://awesomescreenshot.com/0451a9sld5 I think it would be better to G+ the page rather than the url (as i have 12 urls .com/me, .com/fr, etc.)
But I don't know how to set it up.
When I do it on google + page http://awesomescreenshot.com/06e1a9tfda https://developers.google.com/+/web/+1button/ I do not see the 12 current followers.
So in fact how to be sure than my google + code is weel linked to my google + and my google + page linked to my website and it's subfolders
Tks a lot !
(ps: I love valencia by the way :p)

Hi Flo! (first, sorry for my english, i try to improve it)
I think that maybe you are confusig the +1 to an url, with the +1 to a Google Plus Page.
In your page ibremarketing.com you have the button with +12 because 12 users done +1 to www.ibremarketing.com
If you set the +1 button to your G+'s page, the url is not "ibremarketing.com", being google.com/yourpagesid (the url that i can see you set up in the box URL TO +1 to test the script). This second url have not any +1 at this moment, and is a different one.
So, there are two major options: +1 your own website's url, or +1 the Google Plus Page and follow it on Google Plus.
Is simmilar to facebook likes. I can like a url and recommend it, or i can like a facebook fan page to follow it.
My suggestion is: left the +1 button to your website's url and use Badge option to let users follow your Google's Plus Page.
Or better: Set the +1 button to the G+ page, and link it officialy to www.ibremarketing.com
like this: (sorry if appears in spanish, must be in english too)

I hope to be enough crearly in my explanation

Requesting Link
Hi guys, A coworker of mine was quoted on behalf of our financial firm in an article for Reuters a few months back. The article itself has taken off and has been posted several times on different websites. I've reached out to a few requesting they back link to our site when mentioning our business, but so far I'm getting a lot of rejection e-mails. The last one I received says they won't hyperlink to a company unless it's for a "specific reason". Anyone have any suggestions on how to better request these links--or communicate the "specific reason" I apparently need to have? I tried explaining in my initial message that it was beneficial for the reader, etc. etc, but all these outlets still seem to be against the idea. Thanks!

Google Contacting Clients in an Adwords MCC?!
I am curious if this has happened to others and if so if you were able to resolve it. Today a client forwarded an email that went to a client account and we were in no way copied on it. This is a client that spends in the 6 figures with us and I was shocked to read (Any bold or italics I have added): Hi *****, My name is Jimmy Morrow and I am an Account Strategist at Google on our Agency Team. Your account was recently selected for free dedicated support this quarter and I will be your new point of contact at Google for all things AdWords. We can go over a few housekeeping things I noticed, broader strategy, and some betas that would be a good fit. Please let me know when you have time for a 20-30 minute phone call when we can go over the accounts and make a plan for working together this quarter. Thanks and just let me know a time that works best for you! Best, Jimmy To me, they have essentially gone around us and with the "housekeeping" and "beta" comments sought to make us look either incapable and/or uninformed. We are Google Partners, etc. and we have clients in our MCC for Adwords. I have never seen an occasion where Google blatantly tried to steal the client as it appears is happening here. This is a client who heretofore had NEVER used Adwords and they have been in business since before there was a Google or an Internet. We brought them to Adwords about 6 - 8 months ago!!! They are spending 6 figures on Adwords and I am ready to pull them out and spend the money elsewhere. We sent emails from our UK and our Houston office and no response from lil ole Jimmy. Our UK team has tried calling Google and nothing and then Chatting with them and we can get nothing. This is a client who has a lot of faith in our abilities based on many things we have done for them that worked and they are the kind of client that let's us know when issues arise. So, they are not going to switch and that is not the issue. The issue is Google acted as if they wanted to embrace agencies and if that is so, why then try to back door them? I hope to hear from others who are handling PPC with Google. Thanks a ton. Robert

Google Changing the Title Tag to Your Brand
A while back google started changing our title tags to have our name in it, which was great and reasonable for the most part. We recently ran into a problem with it as we have some properties on our site that fall under a dba. Here is the example. Title tag: Kolea- Waikoloa Vacation Rentals
Branding | | RobDalton
Kolea is a vacation rental community is a resort called Waikoloa. Waikoloa Vacation Rentals is our company name and www.waikoloavacationrentals.com is our company site. Here is the problem:
Title tag: Hualalai Resort- Waikoloa Vacation Rentals
Hualalai is a completely different place than Waikoloa and we do business in there as Hualalai Vacation Rentals, but keep our properties on our www.waikoloavacationrentals.com site rather than microsites. How can you let google know that what they are doing is incorrect for specific pages? Thanks,0 -
Google is sticking it to E-commerce Companies right?
Hi all, Excuse the rant - but I'd be interested to hear others thoughts on this... I am completely disheartened by the Google Algorithm updates of the last 18 months. They seem to be completely geared up to making life much much harder for E-commerce companies to rank organically, and much easier for informational sites to rank organically, with the only exception being national or global brands that have millions of pounds to invest in off-line marketing like TV advertising. Is it not all a devious strategy by Google to ensure e-commerce companies have to pay for their traffic? It seems like if you genuinely want to compete organically as an e-tailer, without investing millions in off-line advertising, you basically have to become a publishing house as well as shop. My company sells building supplies. There are plenty of magazines and info-sites out there offering tips, advice, interactive tools etc. for how to build your own home, home improvement advice etc. But if I want to start getting 'natural' links, I have to become an online magazine and information resource as well and start competing with these other reputable info-resources - where is the sense in that? If house-builders want advice and information on building regulations, planning permission etc. they'll visit government information sites and other reputable online resources to get that information, if they want to buy materials they'll go to a shop. It just seems like Google is trying to make every site an information resource - how else are you supposed to get natural links without publishing 'sharable' information - no-one shares links to products really, well not building materials anyway - maybe sexy products like ferrari cars and super-duper laptops or sound systems, but no one is going to go "oh that's a really nice piece of timber, I'll share that with all my friends before I buy it". Just feels like it's getting harder and harder and more and more expensive to trade online. What's everyone else think? Luke

Prominent newspaper covered my content but did not link
Hi, I've seen this question asked and answered by SEO's somewhere in the past but can't seem to find it. A press release we created was covered in a nice article by a very prominent newspaper, with a mention of us but no link. The paper is so prominent that you hesitate for a second to write them and ask for the link, but of course, it doesn't hurt to ask. One mistake I made was issuing the release but not really pointing it at a piece of relevant content besides our company web site. This is not part of the question but is a good tip fo' learning and growing - the information we released was highly compelling but we should have taken the time to create a beautiful, linkable asset on our site. Anybody with advice on the best way to ask for a link? Is it asking the author? I assume I am not going to get this. I think this article will be syndicated -- if it gets picked up elsewhere, do you think it's worth the time to ask those papers?
