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/

Why can't FB find this url?
The other day we updated an old blog post, http://www.kempruge.com/flashing-headlights-no-good-deed/, and while it uploaded fine to g+ and the page is live, for some reason, FB says it can't find it. This has never happened to me before, so I don't know what to do? I tried posting other links to FB from our site, and they all worked, so I know it's not a problem with our site. Then, I tried posting the link using other FB accounts, but they did't work. So I know it's not our FB page. I did do one thing that may have caused this problem, but not sure. After I updated this post, I scheduled it to post thinking it would do it immediately. I went to post the link on FB, before it was scheduled to publish in WP, and that's when I noticed it wasn't finding it. I went back to WP, and changed the schedule time. Once I did that, the page was live, but I can't get FB to recognize the page. It's like FB needs to clear its cache or something. Any ideas? Thanks, Ruben

Why isn't open graph working for this URL?
When I post this URL (http://goo.gl/iDMsJq) to my Facebook page, the image is small, and it isn't pulling the correct description. I checked FB object debugger, and it looks fine - so why isn't it working properly when I post to Facebook? https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthline.com%2Fhealth-slideshow%2Fquit-smoking-timeline

Authorship's Back. Could a custom URL be why?
Hey Everyone, First, thanks to everyone for providing me suggestions on how to get my authorship picture back. Sure enough, we did it get it back, but not for any reason that makes sense to me. We got it back within hours of changing our g+ url to a custom one (google provided us with one a few months ago, but I didn't like it, so I didn't change it). Well, now I figured, why not? We have to do something to get our authorship back, and after making that change within hours, we had our picture displaying again. While I know this could be a coincidence, we haven't written anything new since we lost it in mid December. So, it can't be some influx of great content. And, since google is getting more strict about authorship, I don't see how we would have lost it in the first place, only to get it back without anything additional worked on yet. The only change is the custom URL. I know this is not ANY sort of scientific proof, but I figured I'd just throw my experience out there for others to see. Could this be the reason? Has anyone else had anything like this happen? Good luck to everyone else who is working on getting their picture back! Though I can't tell you how to do it, I can tell you it can change back within a few weeks. Best, Ruben

Problems with Google Analytics social tracking
Hi folks, Any GA experts out there available to help with a social tracking problem we've got? In short a client is using a ShareThis plugin, but the data we're seeing in GA doesn't correlate at all with the share counts showing on the plugin. Huge discrepancies in fact. Could do with someone taking a look at the page and seeing what part of the tracking code we need to update/fix. We'll make it worth your while. Please PM me if you can help. Thanks! Matt.

Google +
I recently created a google + page (personal and business) but notice that while I can create circles for my personal page the business page does not work the same way. Is there a good reference for making more effective use of this new social platform?
