Snippets

A snippet is the preview of the content of a website in the search results. The snippets are taken from the title and description and displayed in the search result list (SERP). The more information contained in the title and description, the better Google can access this information. The CTR (click-through rate) on an article or category is increased if a call to action and special characters are included in the snippets. Both title and description can be assigned automatically.

• Call to Action
  A call to action is a request to take a certain action. In the case of online shops, these are usually buying impulses (e.g. buy cheap now / order cheaply immediately / buy free of shipping costs / etc.). A “call to action” demonstrably increases the willingness of potential customers to click on a search result.
  

• Special Character
  You have probably seen the large arrows or ticks in the search results several times. These special characters attract more attention than plain text and force the searcher to focus on them.
  

• Variable
  Further shop variables such as Implement stock level, price or manufacturer.

• Templates
  After installation, ten pre-made snippet templates for articles and categories are already in the administration. There new templates can be created or existing ones can be changed. Individual snippets can then be created for each article and each category.
  

• Preview
  A preview, which is similar to the results on Google, makes it easier to create the snippets.

Redirect URL

With this plugin you can easily create and manage SEO-compliant URL redirects with 301 or 302 status code in Shopware Administration.

JSON LD Rich Snippets

Pass rich snippets to Google in JSON-LD format. Rich snippets are a special form of snippet. They are used to transfer relevant information to Google. If you see the stock level and the price of a product in the search results, then these data were passed with rich snippets. This function is implemented in Shopware 6 and the rich snippets are transferred with microdata. However, W3C and Google recommend using JSON-LD. With the ACRIS SEO Tools plugin, the data is transferred in JSON-LD format. You are therefore prepared for the future.

The SEO Tools plugin from ACRIS offers even more options. The search results on Google can be further refined by entering specific information about your industry and your company.

By activating the "Sitelinks Search Box" you give Google the option of displaying your own search in the search. The "Sitelinks Search Box" is a search box that appears within a snippet in the Google SERPs. In this way, users can search for content directly in the search result list on the desired page.

Of course, there is no guarantee that Google will also display the search box. You just create the possibilities. The final decision is always made by Google's algorithm.

Robots settings

With the robots settings you can define the visibility for search engines. In this way, you can determine whether Google should include individual articles or individual categories in the index. With the JSON LD Rich Snippets section it is also possible to make the entire shop not indexable for Google.
