Zinn® SEO how-to: Control what search results quote and Choose a post's main category

Control what search results quote

Limit the text and image a search result shows for a page, and keep prices or spoilers out of the quote.

1. Open the page's search settings — Edit the page, open Search and social in the sidebar and press More options.
2. Set the limits — Under What search results may show, set the Longest text snippet (characters) and the Largest image preview. The preview shows how much search engines may quote.
3. Keep one block out of the quote — Select a block, open its Advanced settings and switch on Hide from search result snippets. The block is still indexed.

Choose a post's main category

When a post is in several categories, choose the one used in its address, breadcrumbs and structured data.

1. Give the post two or more categories — Edit the post and tick its categories.
2. Choose the main one — In Search and social, choose the Main category. Chosen by WordPress keeps WordPress's own choice.
3. Check the address — Addresses that include the category now use the main one, and so do the breadcrumbs. The old address redirects.
