Regarding http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1229920 to scrolled down section ''Examples'' to the point ''1.'' to the second code line which is:
<a rel="me" href="https://plus.google.com/105240469625818678725/"> <img src="//www.google.com/images/icons/ui/gprofile_button-16.png"></a>
On the page says that I have to add this line to the Contact Me page of own website in order to get Google Profile button. Exact code which one should be copy and pasted I am able to get here: http://www.google.com/webmasters/profilebutton/
Questions:
As you can see on the second URL, to make Google Profile button I need to use
http://www.google.com/images/icons/ui/gprofile_button-32.pngauthor
tag and notme
tag. But the first URL which I showed (the line in this message above) shows that I have to useme
tag and even without this:width="32" height="32"
. I am already aware that I have to type (second URL) my own Google Profile URL. So do I just MANUALLY (!) change this:
to this (note: two changes done):
<a rel="me" href="https://profiles.google.com/109412257237874861202">
<img src="http://www.google.com/images/icons/ui/gprofile_button-32.png"></a>
Is this correct? I assume that plus.google.com is the same as profiles.google.com (both is URL of Google Profile).
If I was wrong with my first question then the second answer probably won't be even useful but still: Where exactly should I paste the code:
http://www.google.com/images/icons/ui/gprofile_button-32.png
inside Author Page of own website? I think it doesn't matter where. Also: will this icon be for sure enough or do I also have to make such anchor text with rel me
in a "shape" of text (for word sentence such as "Look At My Google Profile")? Or is just icon really enough?
In the same section ("1.") of the same page (link [first one] provided above) it says that I need to use first
author
tag to link to Author/Contact Me page of own website in order to later useme
tag. But I think in the explanation is little mistake. Shouldn't be instead of:Jay Greene
this:
<a rel="author" href="http://www.cnet.com/profile/iamjaygreene.html">Jay Greene</a>
