Music website activity to be added to Google search results
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 1 May 2013
SoundCloud, Deezer and Songza, along with online radio services Slacker Radio and TuneIn, are amongst the first to have extra dynamically updating profile information added to Google search results, so that if you search for any of those services on Google you will get extra info alongside the main search result. Said services must have Google+ integration to qualify for the extra presence on the search engine site.
Director Of Product Management at Google+, Seth Sternberg explained in a blog post: “Soon, if you search for a site or app on Google.com (and that app has integrated with Google+ Sign-In app activities), you’ll see popular and aggregate user activity to the right of search results. Searching for [movie site] Fandango, for example, will show the top movies among Google users. And when you click on a movie, you’ll go directly to its page on Fandango”.
