Brodie Clark noticed that Google is now showing some featured snippets also have how-to schema show up in Google Search. Brodie said he "thinks this might be the first time I've seen Structured Data influence a Featured Snippet."
Brodie shared a couple screen shots on Twitter including this one:
As you can see, the how-to schema carousel is right above the featured snippet. When you click on the steps in the how-to schema, it takes you to the site listed in the featured snippet.
Both Brodie and Glenn Gabe shared numerous screen shots of this in action:
Seeing that here as well. Very cool implementation by Google. Rewards the site/page twice. :) pic.twitter.com/mz6OhAbpAl
