Search Engine Results Page (SERP) - Overview

Search Engine Results Pages, also called SERPs, show the search engine's response to a search query. How the search engine presents this information can get confusing with many types of information presented in addition to web page links. For this project, we focus on Snippets or sections of a web page presented directly in the SERP and also organic results, which are web page links.
