Google Rich Results Test Is Now Live

SEO Company

Google has released a new feature to test and preview structured data on your website. Structured data is what allows your results in Google Search to appear with eye-catching features that draw potential customers to your result over competitors. These are also known as “rich results.” For example, rich results can include images, FAQ’s, tables, and more when your page appears in search results.

The Rich Results Test is available at this link and will replace the Structured Data Testing Tool. While the old tool is still active, it will be phased out, and Google no longer recommends using it to test your search results.

Google says the Rich Results Test is an upgrade in that it allows for preview in both mobile and desktop. It is also more efficient in analyzing dynamically loaded structured data, and it is “fully aligned with Search Console reports.”

If one of the Search feature enhancements included in your markup is not valid, the results will include a warning. The markup could still generate as a rich result, but without the elements flagged with a warning.

Use this tool to improve your website’s pages and ensure that they are structured to give your website the best chance of being seen in Google Search. For more information, see the help page for the Rich Results Test.

How to Use the Rich Results Test

To use the Rich Results Test, select page URL or code snippet in the top left corner and select mobile or desktop in the bottom right corner. Then enter the URL or code you would like to test.

Results will appear like this, with warnings to let you know which data you need to correct:

The preview of your results in Google Search looks like this:

M5 Design Studio kindly offered our business free support in updating our online presence during the COVID-19 crisis. Some of their services included support in creating a Google listing to help people find our services in Google. It also included a banner to the top of our website to let customers know our current hours and important changes to our business during these times.We are forever grateful to M5 Design Studio for being generous, professional and helpful to us. Its an honor to have their support in the Orlando community. Thank you for helping Holistic Starlight be of service to the community, as well. It was wonderful working with Dominique and the team!

M5 Design Studio is a hidden gem within the vast world of website design and technology companies. Although M5 is an Orlando website design company you don’t need to be a local business to benefit from their friendly, professional and attentive services. Martha and James at M5 Design Studio took our ambitious website concept from the idea stage to reality. The website is visually engaging, professional and mobile friendly, we can’t be happier with the outcome. It rivals websites that cost several thousands of dollars but it was very affordable and easy to update and maintain. We frequently receive compliments from people who call our office and think that we’re a national company because they checked-out our website. M5 Design Studio is more than just an Orlando website design company though. M5 designed our client presentation portfolio, company brochure, rack card, business cards, professional client handouts, referral card and there’s more marketing collateral in the works. We’ve learned to trust Martha, James and the M5 team with our business and that’s why we won’t partner with anyone else. If you’re looking for an affordable, knowledgeable, competent website design company, you would be doing yourself a disservice if you don’t take a minute to give Martha a call. Heart, Body & Mind Home Care.

We have only good things to say about M5 Designs and would highly recommend them to anyone. M5 Designs is an Orlando web design company that has helped us create, maintain and update our website for 10 years. Maybe more!? From simple requests to complicated customizations, everything has always turned out great! Communicating with Martha and her team is easy and everything gets done quickly. We would never use anyone else and we do not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who asks. :)
