Google Gives Webmaster Tools a Summer Update

July 21, 2009

in Webmaster Tools

Google has announced several updates to Webmaster Tools which it has dubbed “Summer Shine”. None of the changes are too significant, but here is a summary of the Summer Shine:

  1. Site selector now lists all of your verified sites and allows you to search as you type. This will be a nice feature for those of you with dozens of sites in your Webmaster Tools.
  2. Users can block non-homepage sitelinks. In the past, if you owned example.com, you couldn’t block sitelinks for example.com/email.Sitelinks
  3. Now it is possible to see any URL removal requests submitted by other users for any sites you own, and revoke them if you choose.
  4. Also, the main Webmasters Tools page has been improved to make it easier to see which websites are verified and which are unverified.verified Google Gives Webmaster Tools a Summer Update
