Here are two tips to keep in mind when you’re setting up ad sitelinks:

  1. Our systems automatically determine which sitelinks perform best and show them more frequently. So adding more than the minimum number of suggested sitelinks can boost your performance.
  2. Sitelinks can appear with any of the ads in your campaign. So choose website destinations and sitelink text that make sense across all of your ads.

Conclusion

Google Sitelinks is a great addition to Adwords. It will allow Adwords Accounts that qualify to give a litte more information about their ad and help direct traffic to the content that is most important / relavant.
