Google Plus One Button--What Does it Mean?

Hi Everyone~

The Google Plus 1 button is a handy dandy item to have on your blog. Do you know why? Because when visitors click it, it is very similar to a "like" button on Facebook.

So, if you visit a blog that is awesome, just click it. It's like giving an applause--and we all know that "spreading the love" feels great.

If you need lots of info. about blogging, you can go to my seminar on the tab above...It's free and it's fun. There are lots of tutorials on this blog too. So, if you click "Home," you will be able to scroll down and see which tutorials you need. They are complete with screen shots of various things you may need to know about your own blog.

Blog from the Heart: A Woman's Guide to Blogging

For Brides Only: Creating a Wedding Blog

Oh--one more thing, if this was helpful, please click the +1 button--thanks a million!!!

What does the Google Plus 1 Button Mean?

Here is a screen shot of my Whimsical Musings blog (my main blog.) To see a close-up, just click on the image of the page. If you notice below the post, there is a +1 button in turquoise-blue. People have been asking me what it means.

If you read a post and you like it and/or it was helpful to you, if you click the +1 button, it will let people know that you appreciate the article and time it took for them to write it. It is very much like a "Like" button on Facebook.

To me, it is just courteousness. It's like saying "Thank you" or "I'm happy to see you." It only takes a second to push it and if it helps my friends in blog land get more recognition, I am happy for that!

I hope this was helpful. If it was, could you please push the +1 button for me? I would like other people to understand what it is all about and hopefully news of this will travel quickly from one blog to another--that's my goal!
