		Angostura on June 2, 2011 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Google +1 button for websites I'm not quite clear in all of this whether clicking +1 will only tend to promote that content in the search results of your friends (Buzz connections) or whether it may have a wider SEO effect. Can anyone clue me in?

Google said +1 won't influence search ratings. This is just a mark for your friends.

Except all your +1's are also published on your mandatory public google profile. It is private but public.
