Google’s Danny Sullivan said on Twitter that URLs that are shown in featured snippets won’t be repeated in the regular results from now on. Until now, websites that owned the featured snippet often appeared twice on the first results page. The change has rolled out globally.
If a web page listing is elevated into the featured snippet position, we no longer repeat the listing in the search results. This declutters the results & helps users locate relevant information more easily. Featured snippets count as one of the ten web page listings we show.
