The Magic of the Simple +1 on Google Plus

By Agent Image / Updated July 14, 2016 / Published November 15, 2013 / 3 min read

Remember those +1s that we often see on articles and posts on both big and small scale websites? People are either enamored or annoyed with them but it turns out that they actually have a lot of uses.  A recent analysis done by an SEO company suggests that all the +1s on posts help in boosting specific keywords and posts on Google.

According to the analysis, a post that has received even just a single +1 from a different Google Plus user, has a slightly better chance to appear in a Google search using the right keyword string of queries.  Imagine how that can translate if you have dozens or hundreds of +1s to various pages around your webpage. A specific page on your website or even the entire website can easily sneak past all the applied safeguards on search engines like Google and be directly given to users who are looking to get answers regarding a specific keyword.  This new discovery can do wonders especially with the recent decision of Google to change its policies when it comes to organic searches.

Real estate marketers and companies should also find something useful with the almighty +1. If you think about it, it’s really a breeze to have people give their +1 on an article or post. But if you truly want to squeeze the most out of this then a good suggestion would be to focus on a specific keyword for a month, build two or three pages around the keyword and start working around getting +1s on those pages.

The findings are very crucial in building and marketing a specific product, service or information. Of course Agent Image will always be there to help both experienced and new real estate marketers take advantage of this wondrous new technique.
