Network Marketing Internet Business and Google’s +1 Button
I know that most people know that Google’s +1 Button has been around now, but I’m surprised at how many network marketing internet businesses have not attached this “magic little button” to their websites. I think the longer they wait, the more sorry they will be.
You see, Google has been wanting to get into the social media game for some time now, and Google couldn’t let the Facebook Likes Button go unchallenged (By the way, to read more about the Facebook Likes Button, read my article An Internet Income Opportunity Using Viral Blog Posts).
So, Google came out with their +1 Button.
No one is really certain where Google is going with this button or exactly what they are going to do with it, but one thing that I’ve found is that my blogs and pages get indexed faster if I have a Google +1 Button on them. After all, it’s a Google reference vote… so I would recommend that if you have a network marketing internet business or just an ordinary website, that you add the Google +1 Button to your pages and posts.
There is discussion among some of the SEO gurus that Google intends to use this button in giving their rankings to websites, pages, and posts… I’m not sure exactly how they will do this, but it does make some sense. After all, Google tries to return the most relevant listings to a user when they do a search, so Google may consider sites with a lot of Google +1 votes as being very relevant.
Adding the Google +1 Button to your websites is easy. If you are using WordPress for your websites (I’m a HUGE fan of WordPress), just go to your WP-ADMIN area, go to Plugins, click ADD NEW, and type in “Google +1 Button”. There are several plugins that you can use, but I prefer the one called the Google +1 Button Automator… just click ADD ON to the one you choose and don’t forget to activate it.
If you’re using something besides WordPress for your websites plat form, you can get the Google +1 Button by going here: Google.com/+1/button
Adding Google’s +1 Button has zero cost to you, and if you do have a network marketing internet business and if Google does start using the results from this little button to determine how pages should rank, you’re going to be very sorry that you didn’t add it sooner.
