A proof Google likes its Google

I wrote a long post and deleted it by accident. I can't write it again, but I want to share this screenshot.

Notice the "4 mins ago" next to my profile photo.

My new review is on Google page 1 after 20 minutes or so. The lesson is, don't ignore the major social media. Even if you don't particularly like Google +, make sure you share your content through it.

Cheers!

UPDATE: A day after my G+ isn't on page one. But that doesn't mean G+ isn't important. Have a look at this screenshot I borrowed from PjGermain's blog infographic:

To rank high you shouldn't ignore social media, but G+ comes first by a large margin.

That is so true. That is one of the reasons, I am a big user of G+. I have seen my posts be ranked on page 1 not from my site directly but from my G+ post. You figure Google the search engine owns and operates Google+, so they will give priority to those who are using G+. :)

You're welcome. It won't last for long because Google will push it down very quickly.

Make sure you use Incognito mode. Otherwise you get false results like this.

I have never seen a picture of me.

My guess is this is because you do not check incognito. I tried the same keywords from my side and do not see anything.

you will also find yourself like this if you haven't logged out of your Gmail account

I did check incognito and I wasn't logged into my Gmail account at the time. It appears Google kept it on page one for a few hours and pushed it down.
Cheers.
