Google now offers instant site preview right from the search page




Google.com have come up with another innovative feature for the search engine. Now when you search, especially when you are searching for a site which has many pages you get the result with link to other categories within the site. When you hover over these smaller links you now find a double arrow and when you click on it. You get a popup within your search page with a screenshot of the site or page. This means you can view the page you intend to visit right from your Google search page and then decide whether you want to visit the site or page at all. This page preview offers users of the popular search engine an option to view the desired page right within Google and then decide whether to click it and go on. This is Google's site preview and they have just taken it one step further. 



Google instant preview is also available on mobile. Once you click on the instant preview option you also get two more options. One is to view the cached version of the page and the other is to view similar pages. text call outs also show you where your search terms appear on the page you are about to visit. You also get to see the layout of the page before you click the page and visit. Check on the image above to get a better understanding of how it works.
