▷▷ Arrows Showing in Google Results

Want to know how to put arrows next to your title in your Google Results???

Leave it to the spammers to find special characters that get through to Google search results page. Currently, the ▷ is showing as arrows in Google’s serps. You can see this by searching for cheap phentermine.

While previously it was possible to get arrows to show up for listings in MSN, this is the first example I have seen on Google. SEOs (search engine optimizers) can use arrows can draw attention to listings and increase click through rates.

I am sure that Google will fix this soon enough.

    ◺◺ Chances are Google won’t get rid of this, all it is is a character in arial (go to charmap, arial and search through and you can add all sorts of things.) some sites wont show them because they don’t show unicode, but google does, and all they’ve done is stick it in their page title.

    this is the first time that i have heard of such…if there is rally a need to fix this by Google, they should do it now.
    on the other hand, if it is just another do in charmap, then i think it’s ok to let it be. anyway, it’s their way of expressing art in making titles.
