Google revamps European search results to comply with EU antitrust rules

Google Search Digital Markets Act European Union Antitrust Search Engine Optimization

Google has begun implementing major changes to its search engine results across the European Economic Area to comply with the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). These modifications follow a €460 million fine issued by the European Commission in July for favoring its own services in sectors such as shopping, hotels, and transport.

The new search layout prioritizes third-party vertical search services and price comparison platforms, such as Expedia and Booking.com, over direct links to local businesses. Consequently, certain features, including real-time pricing and specific search filters for hotels and restaurants, are being removed from the results.

Google has warned that these changes represent the largest reduction in service quality in its 29-year history, stating they will degrade the user experience and increase costs for European businesses. The company noted that previous compliance efforts had already contributed to a 30% decrease in direct organic traffic for European companies. Failure to fully comply with the DMA could expose the company to periodic penalty payments of up to 5% of its total worldwide turnover.
