Google badge extracted to SERPs
-
It's a while ago that (i thought) I read the following information on the Google badge.
Here https://developers.google.com/+/plugins/badge/ we have the implementation guide, however I was under the impression the Google badge could be thereafter extracted into SERPs so the user could follow etc... direct from SERPs.
I can't find anything confirming this. I think that it might clash with authorship data which does a similar job, but where a site page is not relevant to authorship at all, I would have thought linking back to the G+ page from SERPs was a sensible option.
Can anyone confirm the Google badge can appear in SERPs?
-
Think they are only referring to the +1 badges which by default are on SERPS. The Google+ badge doesn't appear to have a presence (at least on the searches I've made). Google badges should be crawled as a rich snippet in my opinion - I had thought they were but now not so sure.

hi richcowley
sorry not much information here but I believe they do show Google + badges on relevant SERPs showing the number of + results for that site, article. although how this is linked in i am not sure
This can also be seen here: google has also removed the checkout badge to make way for the + badges

"The move comes as Google steps up efforts to increase adoption of +1, another brightly-colored badge appearing in search results. Earlier today, the company announced that publishers can now put +1 badges on their sites to gather support from their users. When people click the +1 button on sites, that URL displays with the badge whenever it appears in SERPs."

Missing Suite Number on Google
I realized that we are missing a suite number. It is not on the website or the recently updated Google/Bing/Yahoo revisions I did. Should I go and fix? Or should I go and adjust old listings. Does a suite number matter in the NAP?

Good Google SERPS but poor bing and yahoo rankings.
My site has some good google SERPS but yahoo and bing don't rank it well at all. I know of course they have different algorithms to google but I would expect there to be some correlation. Why does google appear to consider my site valuable and return it for search queries and yahoo/bing don't?
