Rich Snippets

When talking about search result pages, SEOs often refer to “snippets”. Each URL has its own snippet, usually consisting of the title, the URL and the description. Rich snippets are search result snippets with some added info, this could be a rating in stars, maybe including price and availability, but it could also be several upcoming events or an image and preparation time for recipes.
