Google +1 & Effect On Conversion
- SEO |
1) Are +1's publicly displayed only after you hit a certain number? So for instance, when I'm logged into my Google account, I can see the number of people that +1'd Google, Apple, Ebay, Twitter, etc.
For the record, I'm not talking about the ability to see if people in your CONTACTS have +1'd you, I'm talking about just public +1's.
I've spot-checked the SERPS for certain sites and it seems like once you cross 1,000 +1's on a specific page, then it's publicly available in the SERPS. Again though, there aren't many examples of sites that have passed that so not sure.
2) Has anyone been successful in getting their public +1's displayed in the SERPS?
The reason I'm especially curious about this is because, in my niche, social proof appears to be a huge driver of conversion rates. So I'm assuming that if my site displayed the number of +1's in the SERPs, it would likewise lead to higher CTR's FROM the serps.
I put reviews on my site this summer and my conversion rate improved by about 30% overnight. And they were REALLY good to begin with.
Any thoughts?
