Why I put my share button Top Left and how...

[John]

I don't want to be shy about asking for shares.  This position is bold.

 

Instant Ad Boxes: ✓ Below Header

<div style="height: 20px; padding-left: 10px;">
<div style="float: left;" class="g-plus" data-action="share"></div>
<div style="width: 225px; text-align: center; float: right;">Happy Thanksgiving</div>
</div>

ok why left i know my hand is right but yes seems the eye goes top left... also i have not integrated Google wonder if i should ?

Web page heat maps measure where people's focus is.  They always light up that top left corner.

You'll typically do better with a Facebook share button, based just on audience size.

I'm using Google+ because I want to connect on a topic.

Make it easy for the influencer in your niche to use his/her influence.

Agree on positioning.  Even google heatmaps show that ads are hit more often in the header and top/left column (on a home page that is; forums, classifieds and blogs are a diff. story).  Nice idea John
