As some of you already know, Google has started a new social network called Google+. The first overall impression is very positive, although there a still some (small) bugs. For some reason there a more and more bloggers at Google+ (maybe because it’s a combination of Facebook and Twitter), which led to a fantastic idea by Eisy followed by more than 300 blogs: Redirect from yourdomain.tld/+ to your Google+ profile, to guarantee an easy way to find the guy(s)/company behind the site in future.
You can find an example here:
How does it work?
It’s pretty simple. Just add the following code to your .htaccess file. Don’t forget to replace the google+ URL with yours.
Redirect 301 /+ https://plus.google.com/116790313079773199738/
If you’re using wordpress you can alternatively use a plugin like Link Hopper or Redirection.
