How it works
1. Choose your button design

2. Customize your button
Personalize the button to fit your website:
Button name/text — For example, “Add as preferred on Google”
Site name — Add your website or publication name
Supporting text — Optionally add a short explanation above or below the button (always, on hover, or info icon)
For custom designs, you can also adjust colors, borders, backgrounds, font size, corner radius, Google icon visibility, and other design settings. With Mobile and desktop, you can set different copy and supporting-text triggers for each device.
3. Choose where it appears
Display the button automatically:
At the top of an article
In the middle of an article (after a chosen paragraph)
At the end of an article
Below the post meta
Above or below the table of contents
In the sidebar (below Share this article, or at the end)
Below the featured image or after the first heading
Above comments
As a floating button that stays visible while scrolling
You can enable more than one placement at the same time. TOC, sidebar, and post-meta spots are found automatically — no CSS selector required.
4. Control who sees it
Choose where automatic placement should be enabled, including posts, pages, homepage/blog, categories, tags, search results, author pages, archives, and supported custom content types.
You can also control visibility by device and exclude specific posts, pages, or categories. For complete manual control, use the shortcode, block, or widget.
5. Save and publish
Save your settings and the Preferred Source button is ready to appear according to your selected display rules. When readers click the button, they can proceed to Google and select your website as a Preferred Source.
Why use KudoMetrics Preferred Source Button for Google?
Google Preferred Sources gives users a way to choose publications and websites they want to see more prominently in eligible Google experiences.
This plugin gives WordPress site owners a simple way to make that option visible to their readers without manually building and managing the integration.
Whether you want Google’s official design, a button that matches your site’s branding, a floating call-to-action, or a manually placed button inside an article, you can configure it from WordPress.
Before you start
Only domain-level and subdomain-level sites that already appear in Google’s source preferences tool are eligible to be selected as a preferred source. This plugin creates the link that makes it easy for eligible sites to invite readers to add them — it does not register your site with Google or affect your eligibility.
Disclaimer
KudoMetrics Preferred Source Button for Google is an independent WordPress plugin and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google. Google and related trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
The plugin helps website owners provide visitors with access to Google’s Preferred Sources functionality. Adding a Preferred Source button does not guarantee increased rankings, traffic, visibility, or inclusion in any specific Google Search feature.
Custom button styles include an original multicolor G icon to show that the click goes to Google; that icon is plugin artwork, not a Google trademark file. The optional official interactive button loads Google’s own script from news.google.com and is subject to Google’s terms.

External services
This plugin can load Google’s Subscribe with Google publisher script when you enable the official interactive Google button on the Design tab.
The script is loaded from https://news.google.com/swg/js/v1/publisher.js on pages where that button is shown. It renders Google’s official Preferred Sources button in the visitor’s browser. The plugin does not send your WordPress site data to Google through this script; Google’s script may collect usage data according to Google’s policies when it runs in the visitor’s browser.
This service is provided by Google LLC: Terms of Service, Privacy Policy.
Custom button styles link to https://www.google.com/preferences/source (or your configured domain) so visitors can open Google’s Preferred Sources page. Those links are opened in the visitor’s browser only when they click the button; no server-side request is made by the plugin to Google for custom styles.
