Google Introduces One-Line Sitelinks

Google has introduced ‘one-line sitelinks’ to its search engine results pages (SERPs).

Instead of just showing one sitelink per search query or simply displaying sitelinks on the first search result, Google will now display a row of links for any number of search results. Right now, sitelinks – the links that lead to specific pages deeper within a website – have only appeared beneath the first search result. Two columns of links have also displayed.

Google will remove the two columns of sitelinks for the first search result if applicable. It will replace it with a horizontal line of up to four sitelinks. This applies to other search results on the page. Google’s change does not mean every search result will include sitelinks. These are, like the search results themselves, generated algorithmically based on Google’s perception of the expected benefit to users.

Google believe the display of one-line sitelinks will increase the visibility and traffic to websites. You can disable certain pages not to appear as sitelinks  via Google’s Webmaster Tool.
