The NEW Google Webmasters Look

[QVA - Emma]

Sorry if it has been covered already but those of you who use Google Webmaster, what do you think of the new layout?

I find it a bit strange and not as easy to navigate plus it has meant having to reverify every bloomin site arrrgh.

It has also done away with non relevant links in - a sign that Google really is using nofollow now?

I personally really like it, particularly the messages section. It warns me of any immediate issues with my portfolio.

Is it just me or have they done away with the "what googlebot sees" bit?

They seem to have renamed it to "Keywords" under "Your site on the web".

Top man! Amazing what you can achieve by paying attention.

I get the impression that the changes are more for usability for non-technical users. So play dumb and don't think so hard, then you'll find it.
