Google Adds A Small But Useful Feature – Anchor Links to Search Results

The folks at the search engine giant has released a new feature which allows users to jump to the information they want right from the search snippets. Unlike any other popular search engines which displays links to web pages deemed relevant to search queries, Google digs deeper into the world wide web and now adds anchor links at the bottom of search snippets to provide links to different sections of the page. I personally find this new feature particularly useful as it will save me a lot of my precious time. In the past, I would have to click the cache version and scrolling endlessly while searching for the correctly highlighted word I’m looking for.

Anchor links have been used by webmasters for quite a while. The world’s largest online encyclopedia – Wikipedia, uses them heavily to help users to navigate large articles more quickly and efficiently.
