Recently on 10th Of November, Googler Matt Cutt twittered that he now has Sitelinks under his domain for a search on [Matt Cutts].

But I am thinking that why did it take him so long to get Sitelinks for his domain when it is such an authoritative source? May be his content was placed on a sub-directory. Currently, much of his content is on www.mattcutts.com/blog/, rather than www.mattcutts.com. It seems that Google is showing Sitelinks for some Sub-Directories.

Google is showing Sitelinks

A lot of discussions has been going on at the Webmaster World Thread. People are noticing that the above mentioned one is not the only query returning a sub directory listed with Sitelinks, shown by Google.

I'll show you that others work, such as:

iphone:

iphone

Apple:

Apple

MacBook Pro:

MacBook Pro

The whole thing points to one direction: That you can have different Sitelinks for different queries, if your site is authoritative enough.

Interesting post.Will you automatically get these site links from Google under your domain when you have enough authority or is it something you need to apply for?
