Sitelinks & Google AI Overviews: You Can’t Buy Them, But You Can Definitely Earn Them
Ever noticed those extra sub-menus like “Contact,” “Services,” or “Blog” appearing under a website on Google? Those are Sitelinks.
Or maybe you’ve seen those new AI-generated summaries at the very top of your search results? That’s the Google AI Overview.
Let’s be real for a second: There is no “buy” button for these. You can’t pay Google to show them, and there’s no magic setting to turn them on. Google’s algorithm alone decides which sites deserve that prime real estate.
But here’s the good news—while you can’t force it, you can “persuade” Google to pick your site. The secret? It all comes down to a rock-solid, custom-built site structure.
How to Make Google “Fall in Love” with Your Site
Think of Google as a robot that’s obsessed with organization. If your website is a cluttered mess, that robot isn’t going to stick around, let alone give you special features. Here is how we help you maximize your chances:
-
Logical Site Structure: We avoid “mazelike” navigation. Your main menu should be crystal clear so Google understands exactly which pages are important enough to become Sitelinks.
-
“Healthy” HTML: It’s not just about the look; it’s about the code. Proper use of
<h1>,<h2>, and<h3>tags helps Google AI scan and understand your content hierarchy instantly. -
Strategic Schema Markup: Think of this as a “cheat sheet” for Google. By telling the algorithm, “Hey, this is an FAQ” or “This is a service list,” your content is much more likely to be pulled into an AI Overview.
-
Clean Code, Zero Bloat: A website with lean, custom code is a breeze for Google to read. It’s much more effective than a site weighed down by dozens of unnecessary plugins.
