Search Engine Display Questions for Google & Bing

Hello @webmastert

Thanks for sharing the screenshots. Can you specify what’s noteworthy in the other website’s search results that you’d want in yours?

Hi Maybellyne,

The noteworthy list (Google):

1. Search bar for the site
2. Pages / Categories listed under search bar
3. Latest from Collider display (FilmBook is in Google News like Collider)
4. Images for Collider
5. Collider website information on the Top Left

The noteworthy list (Bing):

1. The display of various Tags / Categories, along with Meta Description for each, under Title / Meta Description for Collider
2. Search bar for the site
3. News from Collider.com
4. Twitter Account under News from Collider.com
5. Images from Collider
6. Collider Extras – YouTube
7. Collider website information on the Top Left

My sitemap is in Bing Webmaster Console.

An old application into Bing Pub Hub, I just discovered, was denied in 2018. I submitted a new application today.

Thank you.

Hello @webmastert

An annotated screenshot would have helped. But I suspect you’re referring to having sitelinks and knowledge graph in search results. The links below the search results are called Sitelinks, and Google selects them based on your site structure. Yoast SEO automatically adds all the necessary Schema needed to generate Sitelinks. So you won’t need to change anything from the plugin.

You could signal to Google which links you want to appear by using the following actions:

• Provide a clear structure for your website, using relevant internal links and anchor text that’s informative, compact, and avoids repetition. These guides explain more: Blog SEO: add and maintain categories on your blog and Clean the Site Structure
• Allow Google to crawl and index important pages within your site. Use Inspect any URL to check that they render correctly.
• Consider using noindex to remove pages you do not want to be shown in search results. This guide explains more: How Do I Noindex URLs?
• Be sure to resubmit your sitemap to Google, as it will encourage them to crawl your site and update the search index. This guide explains more: Submit Sitemap to Google
• You may also wish to contact Google for more information on how they decide which links appear by making a post on their forums.

Furthermore, our?Yoast SEO plugin?for WordPress output a?complete Schema graph?for your site,?ready for search engines?to use. But keep in mind, though, that it’s Google that determines what it adds to its Knowledge Graph.
