I was excited in November to be part of the team that created the Google+ badge. Since then, it's been amazing to see the boost that a highly-visible badge can give to a +Page's followers -- 38% when we recently looked at the top sites. That launch was just the beginning, and we heard loud and clear that the badge needed to be more flexible, so it would fit better into a range of site designs. Now I'm thrilled to say that we're starting to roll out a badge that offers more configuration options, like more sizes and an option that's more suitable to darker sites. So add a Google+ badge to your site, make sure it's readily visible, and see user engagement with your +Page grow!
