After reporting yesterday
that the Google Knowledge Graph Carousel was showing up more frequently and for
a wider variety of searches, a Google+ post today announced the
official launch of Carousel for local search results.
According to the
announcement, when a user searches for “restaurants, bars or other local
places” from their desktop, they will get the horizontal Carousel display of
images against a black background at the top of their SERP.
Users can scroll through more images
by selecting the arrow on the right side of the carousel or zoom in on the map
to pull results for a restricted area. By clicking on an image in the Carousel,
users will see more location details, including overall review-based score,
address and photos.
Google confirmed that Carousel results
are rolling out today in English in the US, with more features and languages to
come over time.
