Our major competition has accomplished something we can’t figure out how to duplicate. When you search them in Google you get a listing like the following. What are the physical things we can do to accomplish this? Featured Products - Home Stuff - Bla Bla Bla.com Offering over 20000 products for the home and office including Acme, Acme plus, Acme Europe, Acme Japan and many more. www.

Since more people come to our site by our name, (we do very well in print) we would like more “shelf space†like our competition. Thanks in advance. G.
That has been done, several times as it changes and develops. Are you saying that it is up to Google to list us this way? It may? The how do we get them to look at us differently? Content? Links?
I think that's all to do with SEO and making good use of the H1 tags. I could be wrong but when researching this before it seemed apparent to me. But yes, I would also of liked my sites to appear that way.
There's no way in hell h1 elements are causing that... just couldn't be. Too many shitty sites listed at the top for h1 elements to matter. I think people are taking h1/h2/h3/h4 elements and table-less layouts too seriously if they think it'll improve rankings when the majority of results look like they've been coded 5-10 years ago.
I forget what they are called but if they are the sublinks you are talking about it is simply a google thing that you cannot do a single action to make it happen. G Generally it is simply for sites that google believe to be an authority on the subject searched for
Yeah I would like to know this too, it is pretty annoying now, like a song you can't get out your head . Someone outhere must know the answer.
I want to keep this alive- somebody insite please- I can see even DP forums has this layout when you search for them in google.
Google automatically generate the sublinks. If your site is popular enough it will generate the sublinks based on how popular the sections are on your site. I'm sure there are ways of increasing the chance of being listed. High PR etc. but there is no way of guaranteeing it.
are you finding that in the general listings after you have typed a keyword ? OR when youhave typed thier URL i have seen results like this after URL search but not keyword .... Ithink everntually someone in authoity will pop along here and say its because they a a very good GOOGLE SITEMAP on the site , thatsmy gut feeling anyways
^ both above me are right. Google does this on their own if your site is respected, used enough. They determine what the most popular pages a user typically goes to and add them to the search results as sub-heads. Laser is right in that it is only done if you type in the exact company/ URL. An example is Best Buy. If you type their name in, you get the sub-listings however if you type in 'home electronics' they appear third on the results list with no subs. As far as I know there is no way to just make it happen and I don't really know what the exact requirements are before Google will change your search result style like that.
Yes, this appears only when you type in their url, same as DP or Best Buy. But we still want, this to happen when we are typing in our URL, But more people visit our site by our URL than any other search or keyword. Others are already using our name in search. We developing a NEW google site map and working on back links like crazy, I am documenting this in hopes of disc. the answer. Any other thoughts?
This also apears if you type in google a close match to their web domain.. In our case our Hotel gets the same in google. Our domain is: hoteljuliani.com go to google and just search for: hotel juliani you will get the same result as in your example !!
i think you can just email google and ask them for their opinion, have you tried other forums other than DP? or try googling the subject on google, or if you are really in urge to find out how it is done, you can always go to a freelance site, and post your question there as an project, and you'll get LOADS of answers, and if you're up for it HIRE someone to do it FOR YOU~ try getafreelancer.com or some other freelance agent site~ HOPE this helps
Not a bad idea- We do hire for individual projects regularly, but I always have the answer first. And I have gotten most answers here. We are going to do all the above and then I will post the results, unless someone else has the key? thanks
I'd say the place them in sub categories depending on the popularity of the site in general, as well as how many people surf directly to those sub links (bypassing the index page) which would be very common for larger sites.
