What is Google Knowledge Panel?

google knowledge panel for beyonce

Google Knowledge Panel is a biographical profile that appears when you Google someone who is well known, like a musician, artist, author, politician, celebrity, or business person.

The panel can feature a wide array of information about the individual you’re searching for, including both business and personal information.

Knowledge panels almost always include an “About” section which is pulled from Wikipedia and includes core statistics such as birthdate, birth place, spouse, height, children, parents, and full legal name.

The specific information displayed varies from one person to the next, depending on what is available from trusted online sources.

For artists, like Beyonce, the panel can include links to help users quickly access:

  • Overview
  • Songs
  • Movies
  • Albums
  • Videos
  • Relationships

And more.

For business people, it’s common to see information on net worth and companies the individual owns or is affiliated with.

Recent news stories are shown when the person has been in the news recently.

Links to social media profiles such as Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook are displayed and Google frequently shows a small group of people under the “People also search for.”

A variety of images and videos are a click away.

Who Qualifies For A Google Knowledge Panel?

I was curious what the parameters are for getting a knowledge panel, so I turned to Google for help and queried: Who Qualifies For A Google Knowledge Panel?

The support article from Google is titled “Get verified on Google,” but when I read the article, it isn’t helpful.

Like many of the Google support articles, it just takes you around in circles.

Looking a little deeper, I did find this clue on Google’s website: “Knowledge panels are automatically generated…”

The top ranked search result to my original query above came from Yoast.com, a name I trust in the SEO world.

As you can see, “Google will decide…if you or your brand has enough authority…” to get a knowledge panel.

Why Is Google Knowledge Panel Important?

Google Knowledge Panel is super important because it’s the first thing you see when you Google someone.

When it comes to protecting your online reputation, your Google Knowledge Panel will outrank everything else.

Even if you have a negative .gov link or news story you want removed, if you are a person of prominence, the knowledge panel will be shown above all other search results.

In some cases, Google may show the knowledge panel at the right (similar to a Google Business Page).

Certainly, this is still valuable page one real estate, although right-facing panels don’t automatically push down the normal search results.

In the example below for Elon Musk, you can see that his Wikipedia and Twitter links appear at the top of the page.

Given the high placement on page one of Google search results, it will be the first thing people see and when it comes to online reputation, you will want to control all aspects of what is shown in your panel.

If there is anything you want to edit, change, remove or update, we can get it done for you.

Within a week, we were able to remove both age references.

His age no longer appears on his knowledge panel when his name is Googled.

The “Age” box was removed completely and the About section was changed successfully.

His city of birth (redacted) still appears, but the age and birth year are gone.

The line that began with “Born: 1957….” is removed.
