Have you ever got double entry (2 links) in Google search results for a specific keywords?. If yes then what strategy you opted for achieving this goal?

I'm not really sure you can control this kind of thing. I could be wrong, but just like Sitelinks, I believe this is just down to Google.

From my experience, the sites I've worked on get this appearing once the site has been up for a while, with a sitemap submitted to Google. Having keywords related to your target search on both index pages and inner pages helps. For example: if you're index page is targeting "Web design", having your About page with the same keywords, might be enough to convice Google to display it as a relevent subpage of the main page in the result.

Why should this be a "stategy"? It simply means that there are two pages from one site that are equal in "rank" for the word/phrase

ive had a number of these results. the best way is to have two pages optimised for the same keyword. commercial sites get these the easiest as they often have the category page (page linking to all diffrent products in a category) as one of the links and the individual product page as the other. theres no magic formula just good optimisation.

That's normal in google results. I've seen many sites having the same entry in results. It only means that those page are both related to the query of visitors.

I encountered this result for my site many times. And I think what had happen was:
- google counted all the votes for the homepage with the keyword.
- while google finds a more relevant subpage for the keyword within the site.
- and so google thought of adding the result however indented to indicate it's a subpage and somehow relevant to the query aside from the original landing page.

It's possible to set up the right conditions to give this the best chance of happening, but it's not guaranteed. You need an additional page that is highly associated in content to the first, but is careful not to absolutely overlap on the keyword optimization. Then, push some links into that page both on and off site. Make sure there is more link building into the main page, so the second page remains secondary. It's a tricky balance and getting it right depends on your niche, but it's certainy possible to significantly increase your chances of this happening. Works best on large sites with lots of content - by that I means hundreds of pages of unique content. I've done this successfully on a number of sites/keywords.

Amen to chrishirst. He could be brutal at times but just really says the truth.lol I mean I don't see any advantage of anyone getting from that.. so why even bother when you could put your time into other things that could really help your site.

I would definitely see it as an advantage.

You'll double your presence on the search engine results page.
The indented listing draws the eye because it breaks the visual pattern of the SERP. This should mean that you have a higher click-thru-rate.
The added listing makes your site seem more authoritative because Google chooses to display two pages from that site.

As far as how to get an indented listing, it may not be as hard to do as getting sitelinks. I have to emphasize that I haven't tested this method out personally yet, but from what I've heard through Stompernet (they claim this works) is that you can get the indented listing by linking both pages to each other with the exact same anchor text.

As an example:

Page A links to Page B with the text "Superman Action Figures". Page B should then link back to Page A with the text, "Superman Action Figures". In theory, at least, this will result in an indented listing.
