The Google Forum

Sometimes I see websites that have Links in their google descriptions.

For example, if you do a google search for cnn.com,
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&s...aqi=n1g7g-s1g2

They have "Money", "Entertainment", and other links listed below the google description. How can I do this on my own site? Thanks!

By putting 'meta description' to your site. This tag provides a short description of the page and used as snippet shown in the search engines. Also other Meta elements like title and keywords provides information about a given Web page. They are inserted into the HTML document.

Take you a few minutes to put that together?

Or you could also sign up for Google webmaster tool, once you are in and you add your website, it will give you option to add sitelinks for your site. After some times the sitelinks will eventually appear just like the one for cnn

i think the plain description is better than links

Why? I mean having sitelinks makes navigating the website easier for your visitor. if they can find what they want easily then they may like the site and probably become a conversion/earning.

If your site is good, then google will show this kind link of your site to people.
