Understanding how AMP works in the search results in Google

Google Search indexes AMP pages to provide a quick and reliable web. When the AMP page is available, it can be shown in the mobile search results as part of advanced results and carousels. Although AMP itself is not a ranking factor, speed is a ranking factor in Google Search. Google Search applies the same standards to all pages, regardless of the technology used to create a page. To obtain additional information about the advantages of using AMP, see successful AMP stories.

When users choose an AMP page, Google Search loads a page from Google AMP Cache, which allows you to use various download optimizations that often make these pages accessible instantly, such as stopping. At the moment, AMP page on desktopes are not served through Google AMP Cache/AMP Viewer. The canonical AMP pages behave like ordinary results.

Initial display in the results of Google search for your site

AMP pages can be displayed in Google Search as advanced results, like other pages on the Internet. To help Google better understand your page, you can add structured data to your page. It is important to note that Google does not guarantee that the addition of structured data will lead to the display of the page as an expanded result in the search results of Google. To obtain additional information, refer to general recommendations on structured data.

If you have duplicate pages with the same content, place the same structured data on all duplicates of the pages, and not just on the canonical page. To obtain additional placement information, see general recommendations on structured data.

AMP pages can also appear as Web Stories. Learn more about how to enable Web Stories in the Google search engine.
