: How do I get my Google+ picture to show up on Google searches? I am looking to move my blog: The Geek Tech Blog (which is currently a Blogger blog), over to a .com name with Wordpress.

You'll need to have a google+ account and follow the instructions here for adding authorship information.


If you want your authorship information to appear in search results
for the content you create, you'll need a Google+ Profile with a good,
recognizable headshot as your profile photo. Then, verify authorship
of your content by associating it with your profile using either of
the methods below. Google doesn't guarantee to show author information
in Google Web Search or Google News results.


Matt Cutts recently tweeted this interview with Google’s Sagar Kamdar concerning the rel=author microformat, it contains some clarity on how it works and implementation scenarios.


Sagar Kamdar is a Group Product Manager for Google Search. Sagar is
responsible for Google’s authorship and social initiatives in search.
Prior to joining Google, Sagar was a Director responsible for
Analytics products at Oracle. Sagar has a BS degree in EE from Cornell
University.
