  3. Introducing Rich Snippets • Rich Snippets, a new presentation of snippets that applies Google's algorithms to highlight structured data embedded in web pages.

  4. Give users convenient summary information about their search results at a glance. Google currently supports the following information types: reviews, people profiles, business listings, and events. To display Rich Snippets, Google looks for markup formats (microformats and RDFa) that you can easily add to your own web pages. Rich Snippets

  5. HTML block showing basic contact information for a person. <img src="www.example.com/bobsmith.jpg" /> <p><strong>Bob Smith</strong></p> <p>Senior editor at ACME Reviews</p> <p>200 Main St</p> <p>Desertville, AZ 12345</p> HTML marked up with additional microformats: <div class="vcard"> <img class="photo" src="www.example.com/bobsmith.jpg" /> <p><strong class="fn">Bob Smith</strong></p> <p><span class="title">Senior editor</span> at <span class="org">ACME Reviews</span></p> <p><span class="adr"> <span class="street-address">200 Main St</span><br> <span class="locality">Desertville</span>, <span class="region">AZ</span> <span class="postcode">12345</span> </span></p> </div> HTML Code with Additional Microformats Code

  6. You can define your own custom attributes that Google index and return with your custom search results. In addition to microformats and RDFa, you can also provide custom metadata within your webpages via special markup called PageMaps. A PageMap identifies specific attributes that are recognized and preserved by Google at index time, and returned along with search results for presentation.

See what Google is able to extract, and preview how microformats or RDFa marked-up pages would look on Google search results. Google Custom Search users can also use the Rich Snippets Testing Tool to test markup usable in their Custom Search engine. Testing tool.

  8. Yahoo Yahoo enables site owners to add a few lines of code to their pages that Yahoo can extract and display automatically. With SearchMonkey, anyone can build a SearchMonkey application for any site that incluses the necessary metadata. With SearchMonkey, Yahoo chooses which applications display for everyone, but searchers can opt-in to additional applications to customize their search experience. Comparing with Yahoo's SearchMonkey • Google • Google pulls the metadata directly from the page and builds the enhanced display. • Site owners can’t control whether or not their listings are enhanced. • Google chooses which sites to include in the program and the enhancements display for all searchers.

  9. The Rich Snippet can contain a summary of user reviews, range of prices, or other specific information, which is meant to give searchers convenient summary data at a glance about that Web page. Rich Snippets increase the size and value of your listing on a SERP to show additional, user-targeted information. You theoretically can attract more eyes, more clicks, and more conversions to your site. Rich Snippet Advantages
