The first feature you can apply as a company to the SERP is of course that you want to be as far at the top of the first page as possible. Once you are there, it is also important that people click on your link. You can stimulate this by inviting the title, URL and meta description and, for example, incorporating a call to action.
On-page tools
In addition to organic search results, you can also place online ads to increase your findability. However, the necessary knowledge of Google Ads and determining the right keywords is required to achieve good results. If you don't know much about this, it is advisable to call in a specialist. The ads with images have recently been displayed on the right side of the page. As a result, there is more room for organic search results in the list.
Off-page tools
The piece of text under the link is also called the 'snippet'. Here you can mention what the link is about. A rich snippet shows additional information between the URL and the description. For example, you can enter Google reviews, specify opening hours, or list the number of calories of a recipe. This allows you to provide more information in one line than in a normal 'snippet'. You can create a rich snippet by adding HTML tags to the formatting of a page.

Keep in mind that Google is constantly on the move and so is the SERP. So try to create a balance between paid ads and natural search results on the SERP. In addition, it is wise to take into account the changing maximum number of words in the title and meta description. The more space for this, the more keywords you can put in the text.
