The folks at RankRanger, an SEO toolset, added a new feature they are tracking in Google. Specifically they are tracking to see the changes in search results that Google shows that contain FAQ and/or how-to markup (or display the rich results as such). I love these tools that watch and track these features, so I am glad they added this to the feature set.
Of course, if you look at the results by going to the tool and filtering for just “FAQ / How-to Snippets” you will see about 5.5% of the page one Google search results contain show these rich results. That seems high to me but who knows. It will be interesting to watch.
Here is a screen shot:
Here is Glenn Gabe’s thoughts on this new feature:
Even in the how-to niche, you often don’t see more than two how-to snippets in the top 10. You can also land more than one per SERP from one site (in the top 10). There are two formats and both can catch your attention. Smart to implement. 🙂 https://t.co/VhMMldcGQp
