As part of efforts to simplify the Google Search results page, Google will phase out support for certain structured data features. This decision follows an evaluation indicating that these features are not commonly used and do not provide significant value to users. The removal will streamline the results page without affecting page rankings. The specific structured data types being discontinued include:
- Book Actions
- Course Info
- Claim Review
- Estimated Salary
- Learning Video
- Special Announcement
- Vehicle Listing
While these lesser-used displays will be retired, Google will continue to support a variety of structured data types that enhance user experience. The goal is to create a cleaner and more focused Search results page. Updates will be shared as this initiative progresses, and users are encouraged to reach out with questions in the Google Search Central Community or on LinkedIn.
