Emmanuel Flossie: Does favicons with ecolinks in Google Search results have any SEO benefits?
Patrick Rabanser: I don't think it will affect SEO directly, but your CTR will ;definitely benefit!
Emmanuel Flossie: Thats what I thought, do you know how the ecolinks are integrated?
Edwin Jonk: Aren't those still in a testing phase?
Randy Brown: Dumb question part 1-B: What is an ecolink?
Patrick Rabanser: +Rand Wilson ;basically when you click on a EcoLink and buy something from that Site, some money (i think 5%) goes to a program that plants trees in Brazil. You should check out Ecosia if you want to know more.
Randy Brown: Thanks +Patrick Rabanser ;..had never heard of it..
Patrick Rabanser: I think not many know about this program but it's cool and good for our planet ;) +Emmanuel Flossie ;you should go to Ecosia -> FAQ ;there you find all that you need to integrate a EcoLink.
Emmanuel Flossie: Thanks very much, I figured it was something to do with trees hence the Tree icon next to ecolink. Thx for the reply.
Edwin Jonk: So you are using a chrome plugin? ;http://blog.ecosia.org/private/68462872760/tumblr_mx16gzeb711surx8u
Emmanuel Flossie: Indeed +W.E. Jonk in the end I noticed it was a chrome extension I was using, window resizer. Not directly google search. Thx for the help guys.
