Default Google Search Results Subcategories?

Does anyone know how you get the indented subcategories (and/or products) to be listed under your search results that some businesses have? I've perused the Google help center and can't find any reference to it?



Example:
Amazon.com: Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers ... · Shopping Online shopping from the earth's biggest selection of books, magazines, music, DVDs, videos, electronics, computers, software, apparel & accessories, shoes, ...

Search around for [Google SiteLinks]

Here is a site search of Google.com for sitelinks
http://www.google.com/search?q=site%....com+sitelinks

It has been based on an algorithm, and I don't think you can influence it - at least easily - just one of those things you either have it or not.

You can't make Google create those things for you. Google create it automatically. I can't find the link to that information but I came across it and it stuck into my mind.

The only thing you can do is create those section into your website, create the content and hope that in time Google will think that is relevant to create subcategories for your site.

Imagine the Google search results grouped by category. Let's say we do a search for DVD players and up comes two results per category. The categories include:

* Comparison Shopping
* Reviews
* Stores
* References
* Forums
* Blogs
* News
* Manufacturers
