The +1 button acts as a recommendation from other users on the net for sites or information they found useful or interesting. Currently it is available for english searches on google.com. According to Google it can be found next to both natural results and PPC results. I would expect if / once this has been rolled out fully the importance of +1ing a site will be farily high. To me it looks like Google are trying to use a social element to get people to all collborate on which site / what site was most useful in order to take this into account in the ranking factor. It could be a fairly big indication a to which results were more relevant.
Hi google +1-button is user rating option,For example if a website in 30th position of search engine results page if most users recommend the site by clicking +1 button it will be move up to first page.it's not yet implemented in all countries search engines.
Its for ranking purpose....If the users found useful info from site,then they can recommend yours by just clicking the +1 button..
+1 is something like facebook like button. Along with facebook like button, the list of your friends who liked it is displayed. Similarly while searching, beside the results, the list of your friends who liked that page will be shown.
+1 button is a new features of Google, just as the "like" button of Facebook. Embedding code in your site this function will be available. It helps to generate site traffic, good for marketing etc
+1 has going to have big impact on SERP in Google. It'll clearly show Google what users feel about particular content and certainly help ranking of that content page.
It's google new services or feature which is only for search purpose.When a user go throw google and search any term and find some interesting information then user can click +1 or- button.

The +1 button is shorthand for "this is pretty cool" or "you should check this out." Click +1 to publicly give something your stamp of approval. Your +1's can help friends, contacts, and others on the web find the best stuff when they search.
it's just like social bookmarking or let's say Digg.com has more digger. More "Digg" number counts popular site on Digg, same way who get more number on +1 they are popular for Google search result.
Google’s +1 button is a huge step toward adding social aspect to search results. It is a similar concept as Facebook “Like†button except it is for search results. In Google’s word, it is your friend’s way of saying “this is pretty cool†or “you should check this outâ€. In other words, it is public way of stamping something with your approval, so that yours friends, contacts and other websites to find the best results they are looking for. This button is currently available on the English results for Google.com, and this is particularly important as it could influence the search engine rankings in Google.
Anyone know of plugins for the google+ button for Wordpress? I've searched around and can't seem to find one.
