Software "card" carousel results
-
Hi all!
Does anyone have advice for getting a software product to appear in the card results at the top of SERPs?
-
OP is talking about the content boxed in green:

not the ads (boxed in red). I am pretty sure there's no ad type like the carousel of tiles boxed in green, so I don't think Google Ads is the answer (could be wrong though)
-
They're ads, create a Google Ads account should be your first stop.

thank you so much!

The next trick will be trying to ascertain if these results are a categorised search entity (e.g: news results, shopping results, image results, movie listings carousel) or whether Google has just noticed that certain search entities are thematically related and is front-ending them
When knowledge graph pulls through a slot of information or you get quite a generic looking insertion of universal search elements, often it's just Google crawling the web and putting 2 and 2 together by itself (without user / webmaster input). For some things though (shopping results, news results etc) there are specific methodologies for getting 'entered' into the results (for example unless you pay Google, you aren't getting in the shopping results period)
Next things I advise you to do:
-
see if you can work out whether it's a pre-determined listing type (or if it's something new)
-
take the top 5 sites linked to by this new carousel. Put them all into this tool: https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool - see if they share any common schema features. If they do, it might be something you can add to your own site

thanks! I attached an image
-
You might need to share a screenshot for people to help you!
For example, on your exact linked search results I do not see any card-carousel of products:
Personalised search means that, despite people going to the same exact search results URL - often users see completely different things

Is Chamber of Commerce membership a "paid" link, breaking Google's rules?
Hi guys, This drives me nuts. I hear all the time that any time value is exchanged for a link that it technically violates Google's guidelines. What about real organizations, chambers of commerce, trade groups, etc. that you are a part of that have online directories with DO-follow links. On one hand people will say these are great links with real value outside of search and great for local SEO..and on the other hand some hardliners are saying that these technically should be no-follow. Thoughts???

Rel="canonical" and rel="alternate" both necessary?
We are fighting some duplicate content issues across multiple domains. We have a few magento stores that have different country codes. For example: domain.com and domain.ca, domain.com is the "main" domain. We have set up different rel="alternative codes like: The question is, do we need to add custom rel="canonical" tags to domain.ca that points to domain.com? For example for domain.ca/product.html to point to: Also how far does rel="canonical" follow? For example if we have:

Is a "Critical Acclaim" considered duplicate content on an eCommerce site?
I have noticed a lot of wine sites use "Critical Acclaims" on their product pages. These short descriptions made by industry experts are found on thousands of other sites. One example can be found on a Wine.com product page. Wine.com also provides USG through customer reviews on the page for original content. Are the "Critical Acclaim" descriptions considered duplicate content? Is there a way to use this content and it not be considered duplicate (i.e. link to the source)?

No results for Yahoo. Can someone fill me in on something I am missing?
I have been working on a website for a little more than 2 weeks. I have seen improvements for several of my keywords in both Google and Bing SERPs (first page in Bing and working on it in Google) but have seen no improvements with Yahoo (No keywords are appearing in the top 50 results.) Am I missing something with Yahoo? I have performed onpage optimization so that titles, meta descriptions, bolded text, header tags, alt tags, anchor text, etc is all there. I have also built offpage links using blogs, other people's websites, a few directories (submitted but not displayed), social media, etc. I have never experienced this kind of issue before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

3 results for a site on page one?!?
Hi, I've never seen a website rank on page 1 in position 2, 3 and 4 for one query, completely separate results as well. I thought they limited the amount of results from a website on each page?

Posing QU's on Google Variables "aclk", "gclid" "cd", "/aclk" "/search", "/url" etc
I've been doing a bit of stats research prompted by read the recent ranking blog http://www.seomoz.org/blog/gettings-rankings-into-ga-using-custom-variables There are a few things that have come up in my research that I'd like to clear up. The below analysis has been done on my "conversions". 1/. What does "/aclk" mean in the Referrer URL? I have noticed a strong correlation between this and "gclid" in the landing page variable. Does it mean "ad click" ?? Although they seem to "closely" correlate they don't exactly, so when I have /aclk in the referrer Url MOSTLY I have gclid in the landing page URL. BUT not always, and the same applies vice versa. It's pretty vital that I know what is the best way to monitor adwords PPC, so what is the best variable to go on? - Currently I am using "gclid", but I have about 25% extra referral URL's with /aclk in that dont have "gclid" in - so am I underestimating my number of PPC conversions? 2/. The use of the variable "cd" is great, but it is not always present. I have noticed that 99% of my google "Referrer URL's" either start with:
