I've an Ecommerce project about clothing and my client is asking for Google+ authorship for the same site.

But the problem is, My client wants their company logo as a Profile image showing in the SERP along with the eCommerce website. How can I do this? As we can only use real head-shot in profile image of Google plus.


Thanks

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Surendra Singh,
Short answer is you shouldn't even try. Google's rules are pretty clear and even if you were able to use the logo, sooner or later they're likely to figure it out and the end result will be worse than if you'd just followed the rules.

Hi Surendra,

Google have also recently decided to remove the authorship images from SERP's so it wouldn't appear now anyway.
