Google "Fox Sports" and the first site on the list is Fox's site, but how does one accomplish the sub-links? I see it all the time.

I think that's just part of the google algorithm and not something you can just get them to do. Well organized and indexed content, sections, pages, subdomains and the like.

Now after logging into Google admin tools and looking around at the SEP features they offer I bet it's something you can motivate the spiders to through all the optimizing provisions accessible in the tools Google offers.

You haven't seen them yet have you? Check 'em out.

If I recally correctly you can do it from within google webmaster tools though I'm not 100% sure as to the process because I have never done it.

It's a Google run thing. Google 'KidsHealth' and you'll get a small list of options - and I know that we've done nothing to optimize for this in particular.

Also Google 'designerstalk' and you'll see something similar.

Wow, KidsHealth even has a search field. That's a new one. Thanks. So it's simply Google and their mysterious ways. Interesting.

The "sublinks" on your search results are called "sitelinks" by Google. These are randomly generated dynamically based on content that Google feels could help a user better navigate your site.

You can view this here under Webmaster Tools: Dashboard > Links > Sitelinks

You have only control on blocking which ones they choose to generate. One of my clients got a set of them shortly after the home page and most of the sub pages received a page rank of 3. However, I believe it also is determined by the number of pages on your site.

For instance, a site with 5 pages doesn't need help to navigate, but a site with 1k or more might.

Sitelinks are additional links Google sometimes generates from site contents in order to help users navigate your site. Google generates these sitelinks periodically from your site's contents.

Because we generate sitelinks dynamically, this list can change from time to time.
