Also in relation to navigating by line this is indeed possible. You need to check first of all that in Voiceover settings that you have line as an item for the web rota checked. I believe it is not checked by default. Just navigate to web rota settings and look for line and then press space to set this up. Now in Safari press left and right arrows to turn quick nav on. Press left and up arrow to cycle through the rota until you hear lines. Pressing down and up arrow will now navigate you by a line at a time. Left and right arrow will still read by paragraph or heading element.
This is a good way of selecting text easily as you simply hold the shift key whilst pressing the down key. Unlike more clunky forms of text selection in Safari you will not be restricted to interactional elements like a paragraph.

It sounds like you have it set to all. You might be better off with some or none. You can access the major settings of Voiceover, including punctuation, quickly by pressing control option command and right or left cursor keys to cycle through the settings.

When trying to read the Google search results and moving to the next item using VO + right from the heading that has the webpage title, I hear things like this (each comma between the text enclosed in quotes means I press VO + right at this point): "Test.com | The best test site", "www", "test.com", "/", "example". However, what I'd like to hear is this: "Test.com | The best test site", "www.test.com/example" Namely, I'd like to navigate by line. Is this possible?
