What Google said. Google posted this news on Twitter, saying, “last December, we made it easier on mobile to explore topics related to your search. Now this is available to all desktop users searching in English in the US. Related topics appear alongside filters at the top of the search results page.”
Please note, Google has been testing this on desktop for several months, so this may look familiar to a lot of you.
Google also added in its old post about this, “Both topics and filters are shown in the order that our systems automatically determine is most helpful for your specific query. If you don’t see a particular filter you want, you can find more using the “All filters” option, which is available at the end of the row.”
Why we care. Google is constantly adapting and trying new interfaces. Be it the new SGE or these smaller changes, including perspectives, about this image and more. Here is a new change to the Google interface that may impact what people see and click on within the desktop search results.
