G+ badge or code snippet
You must link your website to your G+ page. This not only helps you build relationships with friends and followers, but also gives Google information they can use to determine the relevancy of your site to a user query in Google Web Search. It also makes your site eligible for Google+ Direct Connect.
Google+ Direct Connect
Google+ Direct Connect lets you quickly navigate to a Google+ page (and even add that page to your circles) when using Google Search. For example, if you searched for the query '+youtube' or '+pepsi,' you could be immediately taken to the YouTube Google+ page, or the Pepsi Google+ page, and given the option to add the page to your circles.Link your Google+ page and your website
1. Update your site's home page by adding a link to your Google+ page, like this:<a href="https://plus.google.com/[yourpageID]"
rel="publisher">Find us on Google+</a>
To find your page URL, open your page and copy the web address from the browser address bar.
It's best to add the link to your most significant page. Usually but not always this is your home page; for example, if you’ve created a page for a product, you can add the link to the product description page.
It is recommended you add a Google+ Badge to your site. You create this here: https://developers.google.com/+/web/badge/. Be sure to insert the required code, found at the bottom of the page into the site.
Add the following code to the <head> section of the site
<link “href=https://plus.google.com/YOUR G+ PAGE NUMBER” rel=”publisher” />
2. Link to your website from your Google+ page's profile.
To edit your page profile:
1. Make sure you're on the Google+ page you'd like to edit.
2. Click the profile icon .
3. Click Edit Profile.
4. Click Website. You'll know it's editable when the color of the section changes to blue.
5. Type your homepage URL. This should match exactly the URL of the page to which you added your Google+ page link in step 1.
Click Save.
3. If your Google Webmaster Tools email address is the same as your Google Plus email address, Google will recognise it and verify your Google Plus page automatically.
4. Once the above steps are complete you can submit a Google+ page verification request.
5. Use the rich snippets testing tool to check your markup and make sure that Google can extract your page information from your content. This tool will display the markup found on a specific web page, as well as a preview of how that page might appear in Google search results.
