Google has just released their +1 button which is now available for everyone and you can add it easily using a small snippet of JavaScript code to your website. Just like twitter tweet button and Facebook like button, it is a additional button which uses recommendations from your friends and contacts beneath your Google search results for better qualified, traffic coming from Google.
To get started, visit the +1 button tool on Google Webmaster Central. Their you can find option of different sizes like small medium, standard or Tall. You can select the size depending on how it blends with your website design.
After you select the size, you can get the javascript code below i to add it to your website. The code consists of two parts. First part you need to add in your website head portion or just before your close body tag of your website. The second portion of the code is to be placed at a place where you want the +1 button to appear.
Here is a small youtube video which gives a brief description about it.
What you think about it? Are you going to add this +1 button to your website or blog?
