Share link on Google+

Question

Is it possible to share/post to Google+ without using the +1 button?

e.g. Like a normal tweet button works with a url link: http://twitter.com/share?url=httpetcetcetc

Answer 1

Yes, you can.

https://plus.google.com/share?url=YOUR_URL_HERE

Edit: It works only with eff.org.

Edit: As of March 2012 it works on all sites.

Documentation for this sharing method is available on the Google Developers site.

Answer 2

New Google share link: http://plus.google.com/share?url=YOUR_URL

For secure connection:

https://plus.google.com/share?url=YOUR_URL

For Wordpress:

https://plus.google.com/share?url=<?php the_permalink(); ?>

Answer 3

Yep! Use the link:

https://m.google.com/app/plus/x/?v=compose&content=YOUR_TEXT

It's SHARE url (not used for plus one) button.

If this will not work (not for me) try this url:

https://plusone.google.com/_/+1/confirm?hl=ru&url=_URL_&title=_TITLE_

Or see this solution:

Answer 4

As of July 25, 2011, the answer is no.

I have looked through their Javascript and it seems they don't want anyone directly accessing their api for +1 at the moment.

The Javascript that does all of the work for the +1 button is here:

https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js

If you run it through a Javascript cleanup program you can tell that they have obfuscated their code with various functions that only start with letters and constantly refer back to themselves and do cryptic things.

I figure in the next couple of weeks or moths they will release a link based sharing api due to the fact that we will need this for sharing from flash and other web based formats that don't rely on pure html and js.

Answer 5

<meta property="og:title" content="Ali Umair"/>
<meta property="og:description" content="Ali UMair is a web developer"/><meta property="og:image" content="../image" />

<a target="_blank" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=<? echo urlencode('http://www..'); ?>"><img src="../gplus-black_icon.png" alt="" /></a>

this code will work with image text and description please put meta into head tag
