It is my understanding that in testing done by many to track click-thru rates on SERPs that listings with a picture that results from the rich snippet does get more clicks than a listing without. Rand referred to testing that SEOMoz had done on this today in his Whiteboard Friday blog post.
I think there is a residual benefit to SEO as a result of that. SERPs with higher click-thrus and lower bounce rates can benefit and get a higher ranking over time as a result.
I believe AJ Kohn also referred to testing he had done on click-thru rate for his SERP results in his presentation at MozCon 2012. He even split test his Google+ profile picture, I believe, and found that one did better than another.
I don't think the benefit is limited to Google+ snippets either. For example, if you've used Structured Data to mark up your site to let Googlebot more easily discover your customer review ratings, these too might show in your SERP listings as star ratings that could greatly impact click-thru rates (and by association, SEO).

Should UK websites expect any benefit from using Google+?
In several places, Google+ is talked about as something that should be used to help improve the SEO of websites and to engage better with audiences. The problem I am having with this is that these sources are usually from America, and that people I've spoken to in the UK don't even know Google+ exists. So what I'd like to know, does Google+ give any sort of benefit to UK businesses in terms of SEO, even though it seems it's a platform used mostly in the USA?

Which is better for Wordpress multisite SEO? Subdomains or subdirectories
Hi, I've always used subdomains when setting up a WordPress Multisite + Buddypress website. But which is better for SEO? Now I'm thinking this may not be a "one size fits all" websites decision: Case 1: The subsite blog owners need/want/pay/ to advertise their own business using their subsite. Subdomains are perfect because they can SEO their own site seperate from other client sites, yet reap benefits from the home buddpress site SEO. Case 2: The subsite blogs are for hobbyists so they are not promoting their own site with SEO, at least they don't need to. However, using subsites subdirectories will enhance the content and SEO for the main Buddypress site by treating them all as content of the main site. I would appreciate hearing from those with more expertise. Regards, Larry .

Thoughts on Google+ influence on SERPs?
I just read this article over on Read Write Web: http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_is_going_to_mess_up_the_internet.php The part that made me raise an eyebrow is in the section "Google+ Hates the Internet". I just tested the exact term the author used and his article does show up first, followed by two G+ listings. I don't have enough action going on in my G+ accounts to even test this, let alone see it, but was wondering if anyone else has seen it or tested it? Perhaps this in fact, is Google's way of using "social proof" to drive valuable content up? Seems like it, which is good. However, I can also see how it can be abused to further game and manipulate SERPs. Thoughts?
