Google Passage Ranking: How to Optimise Long-Form Content

Google Passage Ranking has been around for four years. It was rolled out in 2021. Google Passage helps you deliver accurate information in search results. 

Understanding Passage Ranking

Passage optimisation is optimising a specific passage from your content regarding a users query in search results, rather than optimising the entire web page. The passage that answers the query best, can be indexed and ranked in search engine results pages (SERPs). It relies on artificial intelligence (AI) to identify individual sections of the passage and sees its relevance in search results.

Google Passage optimisation works well even when your page covers a broad topic. 

Passage Ranking vs Featured Snippets

Passage ranking optimisation and featured snippets have a similarity, but they are different. They both appear on search results pages for a specific query. Featured snippets do not require clicks to gain information from Google, while Passage Ranking needs the user to click to secure an elaborate answer.
