    Google +1's does affect your rankings. My Company has it for a number of clients and they have seen results. The best way to do it, is to search in Google for the site using the desired keywords and then add the +1"s.

        So everyone else here who have experienced results are full of **** too? Just because you haven't seen any results, doesn't mean no one else can.

          Google themselves have stated that +1 may in the future be tied to rankings somehow but at the moment it is NOT. So please explain how you have ranked any site with Google +1?

          You can't because neither you nor your company have.

            Bro, believe what you want. I'm not going try to change your mind. In my mind, there is no better evidence than seeing it work for yourself. I have seen it work, and you cannot convince me otherwise.

    It's hard to say right now, I think due to it being so new, but for sure this will be more clear in about a month or so.

    Listen guys it works. A client of mine was sitting at #14 for a while for his keyword. I gave him 10 +1's as a review and his site moved to #7 2 days after we were done. He told me that he had done nothing else in a long while. We concluded that it had to be the +1's that caused the movement.

      Please, do you really think that the average forum user here is that stupid?

      Google +1 is not a ranking factor at all and you saying that giving someones website 10 +1's moved them 7 positions in the serps in 2 days is absolutely laughable. You just want some fools to click your sig and buy +1's.
      • 30 Google +1's - $10
      • 60 Google +1's - $18
      • 100 Google +1's - $30
      • 200 Google +1's - $40
      • 300 Google +1's - $50
      If what you said was true we would all be in position #1 for every keyword imaginable. And by the way free services such as tweers can get 1000's of +1's all from different accounts and still no one cares because Google +1 is not a ranking factor.

    I can't convince Talen of anything, but for those who might think I am not truthful, go to the above post and scroll to post #12. He was the client and I mentioned the movement I saw there. I have nothing to gain by telling tales.

      You have everything to gain by telling lies ( not tales ). You are selling a service in your sig to buy +1's. And you play up the same lies on your web page stating:

      A Google +1 vote is similar to a Facebook "like". It is Google's way of allowing individuals to have more of an impact in how sites are ranked. By adding +1's to your website or blog, it shows that many individuals find your site valuable and are giving their public stamp of approval. In additional to impacting SERP, it is also a way in which your site can be shared across the Google Plus Social Network as users share websites which they have voted in their profiles with their contacts and friends. The more Google +1's you have, the better. Take advantage of our cheap and affordable packages today and get the increase in SERP you always wanted.
      The votes will come from google+ profiles and not just from gmail accounts which all other providers does. It has more quality and it would give more juice and authority to your website because this votes came from google+ profiles it self. Surely it will stick. All the +1's will be done manually and with care.
      Service Features

      • Very Reliable & Cheap
      • 100% Safe - Manually done
      • All +1 comes from Unique IPs/Proxies (80% from US)
      • Always over delivered
      • We can drip and spread the +1 for a given period of time.
      You are hoping people will believe you and purchase your services plain and simple. Unfortunately for you most people in this forum have been around some time and actually rank websites so we know bullshi* when we see it.

      Google + is not a ranking factor and it cannot affect serps....these are indisputable facts. Linking to a digital point forum thread won't help you prove your case...Linking to a thread at digital point of all places will do nothing to change the facts.

    Actually, the fact is that it worked. As I said before, you can believe what you want. I was shocked to see the instant rise myself but the only logical conclusion was that the rise was due to the +1's. End of this. Moveon.org.

      And this is precisely the reason why everyone should actually learn SEO and not use supposed SEO companies...Crawl back to digital point they eat this stuff up and probably buy as well.

      So, you were shocked the service you are selling to increase rankings actually worked, lol?

      Google doesn't spend time and money on projects unless they think they will payoff big.

      Just because they THINK they will pay off big doesn't mean they will. Google has spent plenty of money on projects that haven't paid off big. In fact, I'd say most of their projects haven't paid off big.

    Personally I think it could have an impact, since it shows how your website is popular on the internet.

    While it may not be a ranking factor just yet, it's going to happen. It doesn't hurt to go ahead and get started on + as Google continues to integrate it into more of its services. An article was posted today on SME about the future of Google+. I can't post the link, but it's worth a quick read. If anything, + is attempting to make search more personal and more accurate.

    I definitely feel like social networking sites will boost SEO sooner or later. If Google + succeeds and becomes popular enough then it may one day have an impact on SEO.

    The way I've always seen it is like this:

    Basically everyone who surfs the web has a Facebook, Twitter, and/or et cetera. Therefore; sharing links on these sites should definitely be considered in SEO. Just like backlinks.

    hmm.. I think it will impact very much. And don't forget the Google Authorship thingy which they are doing right now. I hope you saw those author images for many keywords while searching even when logged out of google account..

    Yes! I think google +1 have impact on ranking of website against any keyword as google is consider social media efforts which are used by website while giving away ranking. Similarly google give ranking after getting respose against a particular website from a group of people. If these people like the website then surly it will give good ranking...

    Similarly google +1 button shows the numbers of like a particular website page have...

    Hi,
    You are crazy if you think +1 won't now or eventually affect your rankings. Google doesn't spend time and money on projects unless they think they will payoff big.

        If the person who +1's or shares your site does so with a public profile, then that becomes another backlink. If your site was on the fence of jumping in the SERPs, and those few extra backlinks pushed it over the top, then it's possible that it could be the reason.

        Public G+ profiles aren't enabled by default, as far as I know.

        But, I don't think the raw number of +1's has anything to do with the SERPs just yet (it might happen in the future). Your SERP position is going to be due to on-page and off-page SEO like it always has (plus the magical fairy dust that is the ever-changing Google algorithm).

    If your talking about 1000s of real Google +1s I am sure they are very helpful, in generating both traffic directly and by giving boost in SER.

    Google itself is saying that
    "Add +1 to your pages to help your site stand out Let visitors recommend your content on Google Search and share it on Google+"
    and definitely it has huge impact on SEO if you get some +1's
