      Buonjourno from Wetherby UK 4 degrees C not snowing yet.

      Ok here  goes... when you Google "Kingspan panels" there are no sitelinks in the SERPS ie a listing like this http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/with-sitelinks.jpg

      My first line of investigatrion was to look at the XML sitemap here: http://www.kingspanpanels.co.uk/CMSPages/GoogleSiteMap.aspx with a view to make sure its updated and Google Fetch it via webmaster tools.

      So my question is please..."What can you do to ensure sitelinks appear in the SERpS"

      Grazie Tanto 🙂

            It is usually a trust thing and if we google the url itself as: kingspanpanels.co.uk - then you get site links.

            The site only has one external anchor of 'kingspan panels' so I think that the trust that Google has that this is definately a navigational search for your clients site is not high enough.

            Things to try

            • A few more exact match anchors of 'kingspan panels' (only a few)
            • Try changing the page title to feature 'Kingspan Panels'

            There seem to be several kingspan sites so this could be a cause of the lower trust that this is certainly what the searcher is looking for when they type in kingspan panels.

            So, how to help this? Help google be sure that this is a navigational search. Get some anchors from these other sites if they are part of a group for this term (not a lot, a few). Change the page title for this term. Feature this term on the homepage as it currently is not there.

            It's not (in my opinion - and I am no sitelinks expert) a technical problem. It is a simple case of trust and giving google enough trust that this is exactly what someone searching that term is looking for and not one of the other Kingspan sites.

            Hope that helps!
            Marcus

              Top Landing Page has disappeared from Google Search Console but still shows at the top of Google

              Hi, One of the top landing pages in my website has disappeared from GSC Search Analytics results. But I do get a good traffic from that page until now. What might be the reason for GSC to stop showing it on the results?

              I am using All-in-One-seo. I change the title and meta description on the home page, but it is not showing up on the search. It is on the source code. When I change other pages, the both show up in the search, just not the home page. Any idea why?.

              Why Doesn't All Structured Data Show in Google Webmaster?

              We have more than 80k products, each of them with data-vocabulary.org markup on them, but only 17k are being reported as having the markup in Google Webmaster (GW).  If I run a page that GW isn't showing as having the structure data in the structured data testing tool (http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets), it passes.  Any thoughts on why this would be happening?  Is it because we should switch from data-vocabulary.org to schema.org? Example of page that GW is reporting that has structured data: https://www.etundra.com/restaurant-equipment/refrigeration/display-cases/coutnertop/vollrath-40862-36-inch-cubed-glass-refrigerated-display-cabinet/ Example of page that isn't showing in GW as having structured data: https://www.etundra.com/kitchen-supplies/cutlery/sandwich-spreaders/mundial-w5688-4-and-half-4-and-half-sandwich-spreader/

              I've been manually removing spammy links from crappy sites and overly used money terms for several months... how long does it take for those links to stop showing up in crawl reports?

              Not showing the right results in Google.de

              Hi Moz, I have a question concerning Vintykids.com.
              The site comes in four languages: German on vintykids.com/de Dutch on vintykids.com/nl English on vintykids.com/en French on vintykids.com/fr The German language gives a problem. In Google.de (German Google) the site is completely indexed in German but we also see results in Dutch. So when you do a search in Google.de on their brandname (Vintykids) we see results in Dutch on vintykids.com.
              We think we have set the meta's right in the German language on vintykids.com/de and we also managed some links to Vintykids.com/de from good quality and relevant German sites. What can we do further to get vintykids.com/de ranking in Google.de on the brandname? Thank you.

              How do I EXPAND my sitelinks?

              When I search for my site in Google, I am able to see 4 sitelinks below the main result. The problem is, Google is only showing the hyperlinks. When I search for other companies, it shows the hyperlinks plus some text below each link. How do I add this extra text? The attached image is not of my site but it shows the exact same problem for the top 2 results. Edit: My site is www.consumerbase.com Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. sitelinksmissingtext.png correctsitelinks.png

              Why am I seeing %%name%% showing in the duplicate titles report when it shows the name correctly in the source code?

              Crawl diagnostics is picking up all the Wordpress variable tags including and not limited to %%name%% instead of what is actually showing in the source code. Shouldn't it show what is rendered in the browser? I don't think these need to be fixed because they show in Google ok. Search Google for: site:blog.sandiego.org "About Aki"
