New Google Webmaster Tools

Google has added a few new features in to its webmaster tools.

The new features include:

1) Googlebot activity report

It shows you the following:

  • Number of pages Googlebot has crawled your site per day
  • Number of kilobytes of data Googlebot has downloaded per day
  • Average time it took for Googlebot to download pages.

Here’s a sample Googlebot report of one of my sites (figures blurred out):
Googlebot Crawl Rate

2) Crawl rate control

Choose Googlebot’s crawl speed: Slower, Normal, or Faster.

Note that the “Faster” option is only available if Google finds that the crawl rate is a factor of your site’s crawl.

3) Enhanced image search

You can associate images in your site with labels (much like tagging) to improve indexing and search quality of those images.

4) Number of URLs found in Sitemaps

Find out the number of URLs that Google found in each Sitemap you have submitted.

How would these new features help you as a search-engine savvy internet marketer? I think it’ll help you detect undesirable crawling patterns that may indirectly hurt the search-engine visibility of your site.  At least when there’s a problem, you can now better formulate remedial steps.
