Well today feels a little like the day I recieved my first Facebook invitation, with Googles new social network the +1 project being active. Google +1 is a new button you have probably seen popping up all over the net, it works a bit like a Facebook 'Like' button, but with +1 you can add a comment to your vote. Google will be incorporating the Google +1 button into its search algorithm soon to place the most importance on keywords which are being searched socially. This will add a human element to the information it uses to rank websites which in theory will overcome some of the less credible SEO techniques that are used to create phony inbound links from unrelated websites.
Whilst some of us here in the office have been able to successfully set up our +1 account and starting our new social network, others have had to look on enviously as it does not yet seem to be open to everyone.
If you would like an invitation, +1 our site and send us an email to hello@matterdesign.com.au
