What it means
SERP means search engine results page. It is the page Google shows after a search. In normal terms, it is one small part of how Google and people understand your site.
Why it matters
The SERP tells you what Google thinks the searcher wants. It also shows what features you are competing with, like maps, ads and snippets.
What to do about it
Search your target phrase and study what appears. If every result is a list, make a useful list. If maps dominate, work on local SEO.
