Search Relevance

The most obvious benefit of a Google Snippet is determining the website's relevance to the topic you're searching. The Google Snippet lists the name of the website first, followed by the site URL and the first 160 words of text in the website. The website name and link are always listed in blue, to give you a clear visual representation.

Ya. That's true statement from Jamsen. Rich snippet tell the summary of what page is about! A small description of 160 characters from site content that is most relevant to the page.

Rich snippets facilitate websites to communicate with search engines in a different way. They consist of structured data that allow search engines to see different types of content on your site. These structured data markups, i.e. rich snippets, display supplemental “sneak preview” information about your site.

Rich Snippets is the term used to describe structured data markup that site operators can add to their existing HTML, which in turn allow search engines to better understand what information is contained on each web page.
