What is Featured Snippet?
A featured snippet is a short answer Google extracts from a web page and displays at the top of the SERP, above the standard organic results.
Featured snippets appear as paragraphs, lists, or tables. They are pulled from pages that answer a question concisely and clearly, often within the first 40-60 words of a relevant section.
Winning featured snippets requires direct-answer formatting: pose the question as a heading, then answer it immediately in a concise paragraph or list. The same structure also drives AI engine citation.
