The folks at RankRanger, an SEO toolset, added a new feature they are tracking in Google. Specifically they are tracking to see the changes in search results that Google shows that contain FAQ and/or how-to markup (or display the rich results as such). I love these tools that watch and track these features, so I am glad they added this to the feature set.
Of course, if you look at the results by going to the tool and filtering for just “FAQ / How-to Snippets” you will see about 5.5% of the page one Google search results contain show these rich results. That seems high to me but who knows. It will be interesting to watch.
Here is a screen shot:
