What is a SERP Feature?
A SERP feature is any result on a Google Search Engine Results Page (SERP) that is not a traditional, organic result.
![Example of a SERP which includes SERP features.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/SERp-Feature-Example.png?w=1114&h=1120&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1612822178&s=d764ef8a0e4f8537419a6d2c11b172b2)
The features shown above, such as Image Packs and Related Questions, can draw clicks away from organic search results. By understanding and tracking the SERP Features showing for your keywords, you can turn this into an opportunity to drive more traffic to your website.
You can find your SERP Features section under Rankings in the left-hand navigation panel in a Moz Pro Campaign.

Overview of SERP Features in Moz Pro
The Overview chart shows you the percentage of keywords in your Campaign that have a SERP Feature (in grey) along with the percentage of features your site is present in (in blue).
![You can see a count of the SERP features present for your tracked keywords in the chart provided.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/Rankings-SERP-features-graph-overview-cu.png?w=965&h=673&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1583433527&s=520c8f4c34040ad2eb58a09f2af56066)
You’ll see the data breakdown by hovering over the chart. In the example above, 30 of the 86 keywords tracked in this Campaign have Site Links. The blue bar indicates that our site is present in 28 of the 30 Site Links results.
Trended Analysis
To dive deeper into each type of feature, toggle to Trended Analysis, nested under the Overview menu.
From the drop-down menu on the right, select a specific feature. In parentheses you’ll see the number of keywords in your Campaign with that SERP feature present.
Selecting a SERP feature reveals your weekly progress.
![To get started select Trended Analysis from the drop-down.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/Rankings-SERP-features-trended-analysis-dropdown-cu.png?w=979&h=193&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1583433576&s=317b2a10e9c18efbf9ca840bd98b8835)
![Then select the SERP Feature you'd like to see data for.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/Rankings-SERP-features-dropdown-2-cu.png?w=981&h=403&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1583433608&s=88ce18db84a0c4639df211fa353f23b7)

The orange bar shows the percentage of keywords in your Campaign with that feature present in the SERPs. The blue line shows you how many of these results your site is in. Every week you’ll see new data so you can keep one eye on your performance and another on your competition.

Keywords and Features
It’s only natural that you’ll want to see this information for your tracked keywords.
Before you dive in, here is a handy key to help you decipher these icons:
Blue - Your site is in the feature
Orange - You and one or more of your competitors are in the feature
Red - You are not in the feature, but one or more of your competitors are
Grey - A SERP Feature exists but no one in your Campaign is present (or we are unable to attribute the feature to a specific site)
Filtering by SERP Feature
Use the SERP Feature option from the drop-down filter to see which keywords display certain features.
Scroll down to peruse all the features present for these keywords and see whether just you are in those results (blue), at least one of your competitors is present (red), you’re present with your competitors (orange), or none of you are getting a look in (grey).
Filtering by Location
Do you have keywords in your Campaign that you’re tracking on a local level? Filter by Location to easily find these keywords. The information shown will be specific to local SERP pages.
![Enter a location for which you're tracking keywords to see SERP features that are location specific.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/SERP-features-filtered.png?w=981&h=677&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1576191549&s=34f9cbbfedf5589f1afacc22a4088a3e)
SERP Feature Insights
Have you spotted Insights column in your keyword list? This helps you find opportunities and guide you toward success. The right SERP Features combined with a Rank in the top 5 places unlocks those Insights. For example, if your site is ranking #1 for a keyword, but no Site Links appear, you have a chance to earn a link.
Moz Pro will guide you towards success with the Insights link. Click the arrow in the Insights column to learn more.
![Click the arrow in the insights column for more information about this opportunity.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/SERP-Feature-Insights-Example.png?w=1752&h=1318&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1612824679&s=3315afe3d9828f185810eda017405af1)
Featured Snippets
If a Featured Snippet SERP Feature is present for your tracked keywords, this particular feature will be counted as the organic rank equivalent to the feature's presence in the SERP. This means, if there is a Featured Snippet at the top of the SERP, this would be considered rank #1.
If your site is present in the Featured Snippet for a tracked keyword, you will see that your site is listed as ranking and winning that SERP feature. In your Rankings Overview, you will also see this indicated with a Featured Snippet icon next to your rank.
![In the SERP Features section, Featured Snippets are indicated with a scissors icon.](https://moz.com/images/help/large/FS-in-serp-features-data.png?w=971&h=252&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1581723335&s=27b86980ed28f97b875d65c7d959f320)
