How do I find out the total number of Google +1's my website has?
-
I can't for the life of me figure how to see the total number of Google +1's my site has.
Yes, I've tried Webmaster Tools, but it only shows +1's from the past 30 days. All days prior to that are grayed out.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
-
I'll keep working on it. When i get something that will give you all 10,000 pages, I'll send you a private message.
Thank you for the vote of enthusiasm Jennifer!

Whoa! You built an app that quick to help answer this question (and obviously get the information in general). That is so cool! I just tried the app, it's neat. Thanks for doing this!
-
Well my site has over 10,000 pages, so I probably shouldn't do that
Either way, I had forgotten that OSE gives me the +1's for my top 25 pages. Since those are the most likely to get +1'd anyway (at least that's my guess), it gives me a good idea.
If for nothing else, thanks for that reminder.
And keep working on your +1 app, you'd have something very unique if you built the first user-friendly way to get complete +1 data, especially since Google's own Webmaster Tools can't seem to do it!

I tried that, but it looks like it only allows me to pull data from the last 30 days.

Oh yes, I realize the call only gets it for that specific domain. The thing you could could do is download a full list of the URL's in your domain, and paste them into the textbox. Then put that into Excel and run a sum on the count column. Sorry if that didn't make sense. If I get my site crawler operational, I may be able to implement a way to just put in the top domain and have it find all the other pages and tally them for you. But as of now, the list is the best I can do.
for instance.
"http://www.apple.com/",13476
"http://www.apple.com/mac/",257
"http://www.apple.com/ipod/",134
The export tool from OSE should have all your pages listed. Given it's not a huge domain, the tool should be able to handle it.
Let me know how you make out, if not, I'll have time tomorrow night or maybe Sunday to improve the functionality.
-
Ah ha! The backslash is the secret.
Here are the results for Apple: "http://www.apple.com/",13476
Unfortunately, that's roughly the same figure I get from OSE (13,472), so I think your application is also only pulling data for the home page.
Either that, or I'm misreading OSE, and it really is pulling +1 data for the entire domain...
-
I didn't get anything for apple.com either. But I checked opensiteexplorer. It looks like the backslash needs to be used.
"http://www.apple.com/",13476

Cool idea, but it doesn't seem to be working for me.
For example, here's the results I got for Apple:
-
Try Google Webmaster Tools

If you exported a document with all the url's of your domain, do you think this spreadsheet program would work? I fooled with it a little, but couldn't get the function to work. There's a Curl call you could try if you're a programmer

Edit: Since I'm a programmer, I thought I'd see if I could make it work. Here's a really quick application of it.

So it does. And the link report only gives the social information on the top 25 pages of your domain... Sorry about that!
-
Thanks, Andrew. I just tried that, but it seems like OSE only gives +1 data for the exact URL.
I need +1 data for the entire domain.

If you have a pro account for SEOmoz, http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/ will give you Facebook, Twitter and Google +1 statistics. I'm not sure how long it takes for them to find them though.
Edit From my reply: I wrote a tool myself as a starting point. http://www.touchoftechnology.com/google-plus-1-counter-for-list-of-urls/

Having trouble removing certain photos from our Google plus?
I have a client that has images appearing on their on their Google+ profile that they don't want. They are not user uploaded images....but images being uploaded via Google maps and other sources. There is no readily available "delete" option for these particular photos. Google provided this article about dealing with these photos https://support.google.com/business/answer/6130451?hl=en&ref_topic=6130059. It turns out we have to "flag" this photos to get them removed. We can just take them off the Google+ profile. Does anybody know a work around for this? We don't want to wait weeks or months for Google to manually remove these photos.

Is there a Facebook Ad equivalent to Google MCC?
Hi Mozzers, Really unsure if we are missing something here, but whilst trying to set-up paid ads for some of our clients on FB we have run into a significant issue. We need to be able to allow FB to debit multiple business accounts for varying ads on different pages. However every time we try to access the ads manager to set-up a new ad, FB takes us to the individuals (the person logged in to the page) account, rather than creating an ad account for that page/business individually. What are we missing? We use Google MCC for managing our PPC campaigns and so wondered if there is anything similar we can use for FB? Or any other recommendations on how to get round this without dragging each client into the office and asking them to log-in so that we can set these up? Thanks!

Should OG tags be used on a websites homepage?
My current shopping cart uses OG tags on about 1/2 of all pages, it puts them on product pages and that about it. Would it be beneficial to have these tags on all pages? Thanks for your time.

Google + Buttons
Is the following entirely correct? What would you add or subtract?: Google+ is making its presence known in the Google search results. One of the main benefits of using Google+ for your business is that your Google+ posts are indexed in Google. The more you post, the more likely your content will show up in search results. Things you can do today that will improve your visibility using Google+: Optimize your "About" page. Add keywords to your Google+ profile and links to your website using keywords as anchor text. Add links to your website, social networks, and blog in the "recommended links" section on Google+ page. Add a link (or icon) to your Google+ page on your website, blog, social networks, and your email signature. Add a +1 button to your website. The number of +1s a page gets will show up in the search results, even if a searcher is not logged into Google+. Announce your new Google+ page everywhere you communicate online, encouraging people to add your page to their circles. Your content will rank higher for specific keywords in search for those who have a connection to you on Google+.

Focus Facebook Likes and +1 to URL or Page?
We are considering adding the +1 and facebook like widget to the footer of all our pages, but we can't decide whether to point them to our URL or to our respective Google Plus / Facebook Page. Ideally, we would prefer poiting them to our pages instead of our site URL, but I'm not so sure if we would get as much SEO advantage that way. I was looking for feedback towards the SEO advantages / disadvantages of this at what strategy you guys use. For example: Having +1 our URL would be shown to their friends at the organic results. Having +1 our page would grow our profile, allowing us to communicate with them and would also enable people search +Duplika at Google (like it happens with big brands). What do you suggest?
