Not schema, but a new kind of search result?
-
I came across this search result in Google and I've been racking my brain out in trying to figure out how they did it.
Do a search for Novus CD4 and you'll see a search result where they list additional products from the landing page.
I used Google's Rich Snippet tool to analyse the page and find no microdata at play.
Any ideas how this was achieved? Have you guys come across anything like this? I was thinking of integrating this with schema to display rating stars and prices on an ecommerce site

Okay, I found this post by Dr Pete called 'How Do I Get Google's Bulleted Snippets?'. The post is describing what I found above.

Interestingly, no affirmative conclusion was made as to what a user needs to do to obtain the search result..

It's interesting Google isn't displaying every one of your pages with a table that way. I wonder what makes Google go "aha..I'll display this page this way.."
I did another search and it looks like a majority of their pages with a "table" tend to display the information in Google that way (see attached a search result screenshot).
I think It's a fantastic way to display a search result that can lead to a clickthrough as you're offering information that might not be present in the title or meta description (for e.g. price, different formats etc)
I've seen rich snippets used like this but only for listing songs from an album, not for an ecommerce product listing. The weirdest aspect is that, this site isn't using any rich snippets
-
They might be grabbing the information out of a table. I don't use rich snippets or any fancy markup on Strike Models, but if you do a site:strikemodels.com you'll see a similar SERP for some of our interior pages, and it's pulling from the table of product information we have.
-
Contacted my web guy and he's stumped as well, gave me the following reply:
" I honestly don't know how/why that information is present in the rich snippet. It looks like the information is coming from the table of products (a combination of the h3 and a div, and partnumber div). What's odd is the table isn't actually a table, rather stylised divs and contains no special mark up."
-
There are some unusual things going on with that page code, including:
- Div names that include "seo"
- Page displays different content with Javascript turned off
I can't find rich snippet markup in the page code, but I suppose it's possible that they are pulling something in via JavaScript, and googlebot read the JavaScript. I think this calls to for minds more adept at coding than myself.
-
Hmmm, yes...I can't find shopping results for them either.
-
I did a search on Google Shopping and none of the products appear.
The mystery continues...
-
Perhaps it's pulled from their Google Shopping feed?

Google number one search result looks drastically different in firefox compared to chrome
I just noticed this today that some websites and brands look like this on firefox only, and others while still being number one result for their brand name, do not appear like this at all. also, this does not happen over chrome at all. both images provided for comparison are using the same google apps account logged in. It would be nice if someone could shed some light on as to why this happens sporadically and what does it take to be distinguished like this for your own brand if you own the identical domain.com or whatever.

We noticed that goods offered in our email newsletters used to disappeared from fisrt google search results page. Goods where in top 5 positions or even higher, but after email newsletters we didn't find them even in top 100. We suspect service provider of email sending is in blacklist? Could it be reason? If yes, how could we check that?

What is the SEO term for Tree Search Engine results when we lookup for a company?
Hi Folks, I have a newbie question: When I do a Google search for: SEOmoz i get a SERP for SEOmoz in a form of a Tree, on the other hand if I search another company, let's say PAF.ca I get individual page results on google. Question is: What is the difference between the two, and how do we usually ask Google to display results of a Company name in the form of a tree or Main Category with Subpages in the SERP when looking for that company name. For my Visual Friends, Please find attached a Print screens that could explain my question a bit more. eAQpw.jpg

Why is Bing Showing Insurance Ads For Link Building Searches?
I keep seeing multiple (2-3 per search) car insurance ads when I search for "link building" on Bing. I made a blog post that shows a screenshot and has more details. I'm not aware of any retargeting or other targeting options Bing offers that would show nonrelevant ads on a search like this. Or is there such a feature that I don't know about? My best theories are that it is a bug, or that Bing is testing something new. Any ideas?

Help on implementing schema.org in our hotel website
Hi, We came across with this schema.org and we decide that it will be helpful in our website if we can implement it properly. But somehow reading through the documents still makes us confused on how to use it. Can anybody show me how to use it? For example in our homepage www.florahospitality.com I can use the itemType Local business on the content but I can also use the itemType Hotel on the Hotel Listing dropdown. Is it advisable the two type at the same time?

Is Bing actually using Yahoo's search engine now?
All my Bing rankings are now the same as Yahoo's ranking were, but I expected the opposite. Meanwhile, my Yahoo rankings are exactly the same as they were last week.
