      Hi from from 20 degrees C 83% humidity wetherby UK 🙂

      A few weeks back i decided i needed to get my pretty face appearing in my serps for www.davidclick.com But after having set up a Gppgle+ account and linking my site to the Google+ account i think I may have done something wrong 😞

      I linked to the Google+ page via a footer link in www.davidclick.com but alas I'm not able to get my face in my SERP which this website has:

      http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/google-plus-picJPGcopy.jpg

      So my question is please - "How do you get your Google+ account image to appear in the SERPS.

      Ta muchly,
      David

        What platform are you using for your site? And from what you showed, it doesn't seem to be a Google+ related picture, more like author picture.

        Just decided to search this up and this is a good way to do it.

          Many ways to do this right, but the most straightforward is this...

          1. Create an about page on your site.  From that page, link to your Google+ profile with a "rel=me" link.

          2. On all your other pages, link to your about page with a "rel=author" link.

          3. Add your site to the "contributor to" section on Google+

          4. Celebrate that you now are participating in the largest reciprocal link building scheme since the internet was started. Who knew Google was allowed to violate its own Webmaster Guidelines?
