The new characteristic of Google’s search results can be used with Joomla, helping us to improve the appearance of our site and to improve our position in Google.
Google, in its untiring search to find the best way to index and categorize its search results, have recently created a new tool, Google Authorship, which links a site to the developer’s profile on the social network Google Plus. Without a doubt, it will further strengthen the power of their social network. Google will “reward” the developers who link their websites with the social network, by improving their ranking (SEO). With Google Authorship, your Google+ profile photo and other information such as the circles you belong to are shown.
Content Authorship: your content will be associated with the developer like a verified author
Websites with a verified developer are rated better by Google
Your Google+ profile improves with the increase of +1s, likes and shares of your published content
Association with other published content
Improves your social activity, which will improve your positioning in Google
Recognition: it makes you stand out from other developers
You can do this manually or through a plugin called “SD Content Authorship”, downloadable from JED or here
These steps assume that you already have a Google+ account…
Download, install and set up the plugin (it’s not necessary to start it to set it up, follow these steps instead)
Now go to the component -> contacts and create a new contact with new data
This contact should be connected to a Joomla
Then, in contact details, in the website field, add the URL address of our Google+ profile. This URL follows this pattern:https://plus.google.com/ourprofilenumber
Save and close, and it’s all done! It’s linked to our Google+ profile and will look something like this
Remember to add your URL to your Google+ profile
