As it turns out, they do have quite a few options when it comes to optimizing their search snippets! The anatomy of a standard search snippet The standard Google search snippet has changed over the years, but in essence all the key elements are still there: The clickable title or headline of the snippet (in blue) The description of that page (about two lines long — it was lengthened for no particular reason a few years ago, but now seems to be back to two lines) The URL path (used to be in green, now it is black) On a mobile device, there’s also a tiny logo next to the URL: Here’s how much control you have over these standard elements of your search snippet (in the order th
