How can I get my content featured in Google’s featured snippets?
On-Page SEO
To win featured snippets, your content must directly answer user queries in a clear, structured way.
Steps:
1) Identify snippet opportunities using Ahrefs/SEMrush—look for keywords that already trigger snippets.
2) Structure answers concisely: aim for 40–60 words, lists, or tables.
3) Use headings (H2/H3) with natural questions (e.g., “What is domain authority?”).
4) Add schema markup to reinforce structured content.
5) Optimize for conversational queries—Google’s SGE often surfaces snippet-ready content.
Example:
If targeting “how to improve Core Web Vitals,” provide a bulleted step list with practical actions. 2025 trend: With AI Overviews, snippet optimization is more valuable—content structured for snippets is more likely to be used in AI answers, giving visibility even if clicks decline.
Focus on clarity + authority: cite reputable sources, include visuals, and ensure fast page speed.
