  1. 1 What are Potential Implications of Contextual Links in Featured Snippets? The contextual links started appearing in snippets featured by Google in November 2020. That has gone through multiple testing processes.

According to Patrick Stox, technical SEO and product advisor at Ahrefs, the reaches might be expanded by the featured snippet appearing as a reference in another featured snippet. Although, it is like a reward by losing some clicks on a single snippet. He also says that Google is referring to other featured snippets within its contextual links. There are multiple implementations in the new feature of featured snippets, which is similar to prevent the publishers from pursuing these features. Although, it has very least chance that it is going to be changed in upcoming years.

But remember, Google can limit these links on the website. It will be new targeting static for the third-party websites due to excessive organic traffic, and they should be open for every publisher out there. Though, the appearance of contextual links may not always be advantageous to the website, as this featured snippet will not allow the owner to decide whether the content will appear and the associated websites. Things to consider when optimizing for feature snippet The featured snippet is the object of desire for many publishers, and this change can add a new layer of consideration at the time of optimization. When the contextual links appear within the featured snippet of the user and create content that can cater to the contextual links, it is impossible to check. If somehow it works, it will help remove links of other websites and change them by their links of content. Some publishers opt for Google leads, which is an opposite approach to the above way. In upcoming years adding links to your content will be established as a snippet-winning strategy. Although, many SEOs have already evaluated snippet features in the form of paragraphs, tablets, and lists to win these features. SEOs still have room for improvement The SEO will surely ask for more transparent and refined data and control if the snippet feature becomes permanent.

Who is going to be benefitted from Contextual links? On multiple informative websites, the no. of contextual links are developing, which is a boon for the links of third-party websites. It is most probably beneficial for Wikipedia and informative websites but will take away the right of associated websites and the platform where they will appear.

Relieving publishers and regulators have now become a considerable obstacle for many companies in recent years. If the creator provides more links to the article, it will surely benefit a vast no. of content creators.
