In the most basic sense, it is a piece of code that you can copy and paste instead of rewriting every time you need it. It’s like making a stencil that you can easily and quickly use to get the same result every time. Each account is dedicated with its own custom Snippet so you can simply copy and paste where you need instead of trying to reinvent the wheel every time. And since it’s ready to go the first time you log into your account, you don’t have to worry about learning JavaScript and doing it on your own account.
Why use Snippet?
Search engines can then present these additional details as a Snippet appearing below the URL on your results list. Snippets or “snippets” may include additional information about your hours, contact information, reviews, pricing, location, star rating, product availability, and more. Snippets typically appear for queries about specific people, businesses, products, reviews, recipes, events, music, and video. The Research Gallery shows some of the most common types at work in their native habitat. Unfortunately, you have to do a little more work, and search engines are under no obligation to use it after you do. There are no guarantees.
All the more reason to opt for the Snippet?
What Snippet does is create a dynamic function, a function whose algorithm is not explicitly defined in the code itself, but rather at runtime when it is created with much more high-level arguments and complicated. Of course, with the previous example you might think that this is rather useless and you would be right, but what you need to grasp is the potential of this feature to not only work quickly but also have more options in operation and sometimes design. In the same way that our dynamic function has access to the argument passed to the more complicated function, it will have access to anything defined inside it – It allows us to define or adopt a simple counter. Perhaps you would like to do this for logging purposes on your web page.
A little realization?
There are actually several different ways you could market your Snippet for success, but schema markup is the most popular and recommended of all. And as in all other sectors of web design, it is better to comply with its regulations to avoid the worst.
