Is your Google search traffic falling even though your rankings look fine? Blame the changing results page. Back in 2012 we noticed that social results, local listings, videos and big brands were pushing ordinary links down, and we warned that not every traffic drop was a Panda penalty. In 2026 SERP features<\/strong> take even more space: AI Overviews, featured snippets, “People also ask”, videos, forums and shopping results can all sit above the first blue link.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

Quick answer:<\/strong> SERP features are the extra boxes Google shows besides normal results: AI Overviews, featured snippets, People also ask, video and image packs, local map packs, Top stories, Discussions and forums, and shopping listings. They answer many queries directly and push organic links down, cutting clicks. Adapt by targeting the features themselves, choosing queries that need depth, and building brand and email traffic.<\/p>\n
