At the end of last month, we introduced an easy way for Google users to get recommendations from the people they trust right when they’re searching, the +1 button . With a single click, the +1 button lets signed-in Google users recommend the content they like on the web to their friends and contacts right when it’s most useful -- on Google search. The +1 button also appears alongside ads on Google.com. This means that in the coming weeks, Google users will be able to +1 button your organization’s Google Grants ads, spreading their support of your cause to people who know and trust them. Let’s say that your nonprofit organization collects and distributes used books to underprivileged youth in the community. Someone who volunteered with your organization in the past can click the +1 button on your ad to recommend it publicly to their contacts. That following week, a friend of the volunteer comes across a pile of books they no longer need while spring cleaning their apartment. They sign into their Google account, search Google.com and also see your ad – along with the personalized annotation that their friend +1’d it. Because they see that their friend +1’d the ad, it may help them decide where to donate their books. But the +1 button isn’t just for search pages. We’re working on a +1 button that you can put on your pages too, making it easy for people to recommend your content on Google search without leaving your site. If you want to be notified when the +1 button is available for your website, you can sign up for email updates at our +1 webmaster site . By helping searchers see more personal, relevant ads, we believe the +1 button could send you more qualified traffic. As for timing, the +1 button will automatically be added to your ads over the coming weeks for English searches on Google.com. For more information on the +1 button check out this website.
