Google News Showcase Coming to SERPs and Discover Feed

Google News Showcase is a new initiative by Google where they will pay publishers to create and curate high-quality content for a different kind of online news experience. Google News Showcase will start rolling out in Germany and Brazil today and come to other countries over time.

News Showcase is made up of story panels that will appear initially in Google News on Android. The product will launch soon on Google News on iOS, and will come to Google Discover and Search in the future. These panels give participating publishers the ability to package the stories that appear within Google’s news products, providing deeper storytelling and more context through features like timelines, bullets and related articles. Other components like video, audio and daily briefings will come next.
