Google's Top Stories is a SERP feature that’s triggered when someone searches a news-related term. It’s an amalgam of the most relevant, latest results on Google. Here’s what Google returns for “Latest news”.

14) Twitter

Google doesn’t exclusively showcase web pages for all types of search queries - some searches can even trigger video search results. Here’s an example:

16) Events

The Google Events SERP feature makes it easy for users to find events through the search engine. It’s a great little feature to increase conversions and boost traffic to your events. Here’s what Google returns for “Events in Dubai”.

17) App Pack
