Mini Knowledge Graph?

[CandymanKen]

Hi all-

Lately on Google I've seen a few results where there is something stuck between the ads and the organic listings that I can only describe as as mini knowledge graph of sorts. (picture attached).

Can anyone point me to more information on this and how Google may be choosing these.

Thanks

Ken

Google updates the information from sources around the web. They have a mini algo to pull that data as far as I understand.

You are correct, it is part of the knowledge graph. I believe you are referring specifically to the infamous Google Answer Box.
