In addition to microformats and RDFa , you can also provide custom metadata within your webpages via special markup called PageMaps . A PageMap identifies specific attributes that are recognized and preserved by Google at index time, and returned along with search results for presentation.

So what are the uses for SEO? - Google support standard language like microformats and RDFa that represent commonly published things such as reviews, people, products, and businesses. - Mark-up the "Contact-Us" page to help the search engines pick up the contact details and improve local business rankings. - When optimising websites selling or promoting products and/or services, you can use microformats to markup the product title, description, brand, price, review etc, or use them to markup reviews like most shopping websites already do. - Video microformats, and its RDFa equivalent based on the Dublin Core Meta Data Initiative .
