How do you get this?

Hi Mozzers!
What is the process for getting this Wikipedia Branded name appearing next to your organic results (image)?
Thanks mozzers!

It isn't he exact same thing, so no, that particular knowledge graph doesn't show up because of rich snippets. I was just offering an alternative.

Thanks... I stand corrected

No. See my answer below.

Thanks Amelia for your answer (and the link), but - unfortunately - it is not the correct one for obtaining that kind of "sitelink" that Taysir is talking about.
In fact, that cannot be either defined as a sitelink. It's just a link that opens a small Knowledge Graph pop-up with information about the site the search snippet is from.
-
No, you can't ask it from Webmaster Tools.
As I said in my first answer, it is something that Google itself decide.

Hi Keri
When you click on Moz (red box in attached image) it is linked to wikipedia. I don't think it has to do with site/folder name in places of URLs.

Hi Amelia,
Are you sure that particular knowledge graph feature shows up because of a breadcrumb rich snippet?
Thanks

Hi Gianluca,
So one of my clients has a wikipedia page and I am wondering where in GWT do you ask for this knowledge graph feature?
Thanks
-
I think there is a rich snippet for breadcrumbs that you can use to create something like this. - it's not exactly the same, but instead of the URL, Google will create links.
I had it for a while, until the powers that be within my organisation insisted that every page on my site needed an SSL certificate - then it all went
So, so long as your pages are not on https (e.g http) then breadcrumbs would work.
Some info from Google here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/185417?hl=en
Hope it helps!

That "moz" link opening a Wikipedia box with information is Knowledge Graph, it's presented since few months in the SERPs and just for broad queries (or brand searches), and you can control it only if you have a page about your brand in Wikipedia (or/and Freebase) itself and if Google considers you a node of the Knowledge Graph itself.
Apart that, you cannot do much more, as asking to have via GWT.

I don't believe this has anything to do with Wikipedia. Google has been, in some cases, showing site/folder names in place of URLs for a couple of years now. There's a post on it at http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2011/06/google-experiments-with-removing-urls.html from 2011.

Getting citations from different cities for a travelling band
Hi mozzers! i play in a band that is based in Austin, TX but travels to all cities across texas. I've been told i need to have citations in place to help my organic rankings in the cities across Texas that i perform in. 1. What are the best ways to get citations to rank locally in each city for my band? i have a page set up on my website for each city that we perform in. Do i set up accounts on local business directories in each city that i perform in with a link to that city page on my site? I have performers that i hire in each city and can use their address for the local address on each business listing but my business phone number would be the same for all cities. I don't want this to look black hat to google by filling out business listings for many different cities with the same phone humber but my customers are in fact in all these major cities almost more than in my home town. 2. Since i can only fill out a google places page for my home city, what other ways can i get citations to help my organic rankings in all the cities that i perform in? Thanks in advance for everyone's input! Ron

Can we use SEOMOZ to get insights/data on the members of a twitter list?
It would be so useful if we could get insights into the members of a twitter list in the same way we can get statistics on the people we search through the "search twitter bio" options (following/followers/RTs/Social Authority/etc). This is possible through the twitter api but it limits to 20 list member which is useless. Anyone know of a solution? Thanks!

How to get Google to link external review sites in Google Places
Hi, I have several company profiles in Google Places and Google Sites, I also have the same profiles for those companies in review sites like Yelp! and so on. I have seen that other sites have links on the bottom where Google points to those external review sites, but that doesn't happen for me yet, is there a way to tell Google that I have profiles on other review sites so they can link them or is it Google whenever they find them that will link them? Here's an example: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=14126341780178539960&hl=en At the bottom you'll see that it says: Reviews from around the web Now this is one of mine: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=12168877126282825032&hl=en Now how do I get that line at the bottom provided that I know there are reviews out there in other sites? Is there something I can do? Or is it all about Google doing it whenever they see fit? Thank you!

How to get Social Mention from an Expert in A field you know nothing about?
I have read many posts on this. However, the one thing I find challenging is getting an expert to give me a social mention. In many cases they have shared something similar in the past, and in many cases they are too busy. IMO building relationships via forums is the easiest way to find experts who will mention my site. I can engage them in a thread, and eventually take it to a Personal Messages. After building a relationship I can ask for a link or a social mention or to guest post or something. I have attempted contacting many experts via Blogs, E-mail, Facebook, Google + etc. for many different sites, IMExperince most “Experts” (people with large followings) will not give a noob (new site w/no rankings or new user w/no following) the time of day, nor a social mention. I have read many posts on engaging experts: tag them; send them flowers; like every post; make great comments. My result… bruised lips (from kissing behinds). I work with an SEO company, and every new site we work on seems to require a unique strategy for ranking. When we work on building relationships in fields we know nothing about, the outcome is weak. Unless we use forums. What are some strategies that work for you? what approach do you take when you have to build a relationship with someone you cant give value to?
