Sometimes when a listing appears #1 there are 9 links under the listing: Example type in Search Engine Watch Forums. Then the links appear Google, Adwords, etc.

Q1: What is the technical/SEO name for these links?

Q2: How do you code so that Google would show such links?

Certainly an objective is to take up more real estate in the listing.

I note that these links only tend to appear when the ranking is #1. However I have seen a #3 ranking with 4 such links horizontally under the listing. Also, it appears Google randomly takes from links to internal pages aleady provided on the page.

1. They are called sitelinks
2. No so much code - read these http://searchenginewatch.com/3629713
and http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=47334

Google is playing where they will drop the sitelinks but for top listing seems to be standard or at least most used
