Hyperlinks under description in organic listings ...
-
If you search on Google for yosemite rentals the first organic result that shows up is www.redwoodsinyosemite.com.
How are they able to get the links under description: Agent Login - Our Gallery etc ..

That makes sense. Thanks a bunch.

This will take a little time, perhaps a few months. In my experience it is not necessarily linked to SEO, more to traffic. Therefore if there is decent traffic without good serps you should achieve sitelinks shortly.

Even better, here is a Q&A post about it: http://www.seomoz.org/q/has-anyone-found-a-way-to-get-site-links-in-the-serps

There's no way to force their hand, but you can do some things to make it more likely. Here is Google's help page about sitelinks. And here are some articles I came across about things you can do to help your site get sitelinks:

Thanks John. My client is in the #2 position (Scenic Wonders) and wants the same thing for his results. Is it possible to force Google's hand with these?
Thanks.

These are sitelinks. Google finds pages on your site it thinks are appropriate for them, and then adds them. You cannot add them yourself. Once they're added, you can block them from within Google Webmaster Tools (On the Site configuration > Sitelinks page), but only Google can add them.
If you run a Adwords campaign, you can configure them yourself for when your ad appears in the top spots.

Product Images with organic results in SERP
Hey Mozzers, I've noticed that several of our product page results in Google have the product image associated with them. Today is the first day I've seen this. Does anyone know anything about these? Has Google put anything out about this? Here's a couple examples: http://content.screencast.com/users/Will_Swales/folders/Jing/media/08a16dcf-505e-443c-866d-fae6d805743e/2014-03-31_1031.png http://content.screencast.com/users/Will_Swales/folders/Jing/media/04972e7b-f6b2-4e78-ab11-95c52d69a200/2014-03-31_1056.png What's interesting is that they don't show for me when I use Chrome's Incognito mode. Any insights much appreciated! Will

Will this affect the local SEO listings in Google?
So, I'm trying to list the same exact address across all local listings for a client. How "exact" do they all need to match in order for them to be optimized for the 7-pack listings? Here is an example of what I'm dealing with... 999 Cherry Ln #1 Dallas, TX 75238 - Address on Google Plus page 999 Cherry Ln Ste 1, Dallas, TX 75238 - Address on every other business listing Is this close enough or is this inconsistency really hurting this client?

Meta Description: How to Implement It?
I'm pretty new to SEO and am starting to implement the knowledge that I've learned into the websites that I'm working on. The websites have already been created but without Meta-descriptions. My problem is that when I try to implement a Meta Description it moves the whole website text and design. I am using Wordpress to manage and edit the sites. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Does Google News Inclusion Affect Organic Rankings?
Hello SEO Gurus, Here's a question I've been unable to find an answer for: if you manage to get a publishing website or blog included in the Google News aggregate, can it negatively affect organic search visibility? I've never read anything that explicitly says so, but I have both read and experienced how e-commerce sites often have difficulty in ranking high for both organic and shopping searches. It seems that Google balances out visibility between the two. Has anyone had any experience with a website or blog that managed to rank high for the same high-value keyword on both organic search and news search? Thanks in advance! Mike

When I googled my top keyword today, my site on google showed a description of my site from YEARS ago. It is completely irrevelant and misleading to visitors. Why would this have happened and is there anything I can do about it? Thanks!!! Betsy
