Google: Non-AMP content to appear in mobile top stories feature

 

Google announced Nov. 10 that non-AMP content will be eligible to appear in the mobile top stories feature in search starting in May 2021.

Google offered special placement  in a “top stories carousel” in search results to urge publishers to employ a format called AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages), The Markup reported.

“Any page that meets the Google News content policies will be eligible and we will prioritize pages with great page experience, whether implemented using AMP or any other web technology, as we rank the results,” wrote Google in its Nov. 10 post.

The move comes as Google is facing increasing antitrust scrutiny.
