Google Adds Features to Webmaster Tools Section

Oct 19, 2006 - 7:24 am 1 by

The Google Webmaster Central blog announced the release of several new tools added to the Webmaster Central toolbox. The new features are pretty neat and include;

  1. Googlebot activity reports that shows the "number of pages Googlebot's crawled from your site per day, the number of kilobytes of data Googlebot's downloaded per day, and the average time it took Googlebot to download pages."
  2. Crawl rate control tells Google how fast or slow you want Googlebot to crawl you.
  3. Enhanced image search allows you to be included in Google Image Labeler
  4. Number of URLs submitted

Don't you just love transparency?

Here is the number of pages crawled per day by Googlebot for last 90 days for the Search Engine Roundtable:
