#Search snippets

Search snippets are the short pieces of text that search engines and AI answers show from a page. Site owners can influence them with titles, meta descriptions and clear content, and can restrict them with directives such as nosnippet, max-snippet and data-nosnippet. These controls also affect how much of a page can appear in AI-generated summaries. Using them carelessly can remove useful text from results altogether. Articles under this tag explain how snippets are chosen and how to control them safely.
