How to add your website to Google Discovery

Before you add your website to Google Discover, you need to understand the difference between Google Discover and Google Search. Google Discover will show users content that they are interested in based on their web and app activity records.

Difference between Google Discover and Google Search

Unlike Google Search, where users enter search terms to find useful information related to their query, Google Discover takes a different approach. Rather than displaying results based on a query, Google Discover displays results based primarily on what Google's automated systems think will be of interest to the user.

As a highly personalized stream, Google Discover adjusts itself to a user's interests and displays content that matches those interests. Content in Google Discover automatically refreshes as new content is published, but Google Discover is designed to show all types of useful content on the web, not just newly published content.

We are continually improving Discover to provide personalized, useful content to our users. The content displayed on Discover is not deterministic, so traffic from Discover is somewhat unpredictable or less reliable than Google Search and is considered complementary to Google Search traffic. We are continually improving the user experience on Discover, so traffic to sites may vary regardless of the quality of their content or how often they publish.

How your website content appears in Google Discover

Any content that is indexed by Google and complies with the Google Discover content policy is automatically eligible to appear in Google Discover, without the need to include any special markup or structured data. Please note that being eligible to appear in Google Discover does not guarantee that it will appear.

The content shown in Google Discover is selected by our automated systems from sites that have a high level of Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness (EAT) pages. To improve your EAT, you can consider the following:questionWhile Google Search is different from Google Discover, the overall EAT principles that apply to content in both are similar.

To increase the likelihood of your content appearing in Google Discover, we recommend that you take the following actions:

• Use page titles that reflect the essence of your content, but avoid clickbait.
• Including eye-catching, high-quality images in your content, especially large images, is more likely to help you get traffic through Google Discover. Large images should be at least 1200 pixels wide and have a max-image-preview:large settingOr use AMP Enabled. Do not use your website logo as this image.
• Avoid falsely boosting engagement through tactics such as using misleading or exaggerated details in preview content (title, summary, image) to increase appeal, or withholding important information needed to understand the gist of the content.
• Don’t use tactics that manipulate the appeal of your content, such as satisfying morbid curiosity or posting provocative or outrageous content.
• The content is timely and relevant to current user interests, is engaging, or provides unique insights.

To provide a good user experience, Google Discover tries to provide content that fits into interest-based feeds, such as articles and videos, and filters out content that is inappropriate or might confuse users. For example, Google Discover might not recommend job applications, petitions, forms, code repositories, or satirical content without any context.
