Event Markup - Use markup like Data highlighter whenever you want to display event related data from the web page on the search results. This can drastically improve the search performance of a web page.
Breadcrumbs - Use breadcrumbs for easier navigation and proper passing of the Page Rank to the inner pages.
Rich Snippets - Follow rich snippets data markup in order to display user ratings and reviews of the products contained in the web page on the Google search results.
