Backlinks are a great way to show that Google has begun to notice your site. Great blog, keep up the good work.

Great post. I never really understood how websites got these listings. I didn’t even know what it was called. I do have plenty of sites that are better than 2 years old so it looks like I have some work to do on those. Thanks for the info.

pandora is right I believe. I worked on a site that had sitelinks in less than 18 months from date of domain registration. I also agree that submitting your sitemap to Google has a positive effect as well. I do not know what the “holy grail” of sitelinks are, but this is one of the best outlines of how to get there I have seen yet.

Thanks for an interesting read! I have to disagree on “Be more than two years old” tho. I have seen some of my sites getting sitelinks within one year or even less. Submitting a sitemap.xml seems to help a great deal.

Sitelinks. So that is what they are called.

Karen:

First and foremost I just wanted to thank you for your post on ‘sitelinks’. I had no idea why those strings of urls were under some SERP’s!

This post totally explained sitelinks for me.

Sincerely,

One of my websites recently got included into the ‘Sitelinks holy land’. Honestly, it hasn’t made much of a difference but it is definitely cool to see.

I appreciate your in depth look into site links. One thing I differ on though is that site links are a sign that your site is doing outstanding – not just well. It’s reserved for those privileged few sites which have done some great work optimizing and promoting their site to the point that Google wants to take the next step and make the users experience on that site even better – right from the SERPS!

Karen,

Sitelinks are definitely a way to prove that google has begun to notice your site. They are usually provided only on direct searched to the top result. Matt Cutts usually has some great articles on how google things work. Love the blog, keep up the good work.
