Google is getting ready to introduce a feature that enables users to leave comments on search results. This development was unveiled in an official Google help document detailing how users can add comments and read those from others. Additionally, there is a dedicated section for comments within users’ Google profile contributions.
According to this section, users will be allowed to comment on sports games while they are live. A statement from Google’s official help page mentions, “You can leave comments on things you’ve searched for on Google.” This suggests that Google may expand the commenting feature to other types of content as well.
Although comments are not yet available in Google search results, the feature is actively being developed and is expected to be launched soon. Once the feature is live, here’s how commenting will work according to Google’s help page:
How to Leave Comments in Google Search
When the commenting feature is officially introduced in search results, here is how it will function based on Google’s instructions:
- Visit Google.com or open the Google app.
- Perform a search.
- In the overview box, tap or click ‘More.’
- Tap or click Comments and then Viewers.
- Tap or click Add a public comment…
- Enter your comment.
Comments must be made while logged into a Google account, as they cannot be left anonymously. Users will have the ability to delete their comments after publishing them. Furthermore, they can read all comments made by others and use ‘like’ and ‘dislike’ buttons to rate them.
This feature is worth monitoring as it develops, potentially offering a new dimension to Google search if extended to other content types.
