Now since the Google +1 for Business has been announced, every brand, celebrity or blog have started creating a Page for their business and the next step would be to get more people add your page into others circles.<\/p>\n

For this here am going to give you a useful way following which you can easily add a small widget on your blog’s sidebar or any place where in your readers can easily mouse over the same and add to their circles. This is something which is not directly available to the public as its listed under the Google+ Platform for developers.<\/p>\n

To get started you need to visit this link<\/a> and then enter your Page ID which is generally a long numeric format ID as shown below. Generally a URL is in this format https:\/\/plus.google.com\/b\/103143666822707613685\/<\/strong><\/a>. You need to copy the bold part from the URL and insert into the Widget Generator and then click on the Style you would like to show on your site.<\/p>\n

$\"Google$ <\/a><\/p>\n

On selecting the right widget you would get an option to select the type of code you would like to embed, its suggested to go for the HTML5 valid syntax option. Next place the code which is given to you at the end of the page onto your blog where ever you would like to display this live widget and get more people add your page to their circles or in short follow you. You also get an option to just show Icons instead of badges which can be selected based on your requirements.<\/p>\n
