Configuring Google Webmaster Tools for Website Builder v6

When you publish your site with Website Builder, you can select to submit your Web pages to Google® with Google Webmaster Tools account. It submits your Web pages to the Google index, which determines their relevance when people search the Internet. You can get detailed reports about the visibility of your pages on Google, sitemap details, and statistical information about your website.

Some additional features of Google Webmaster Tools include:

• Sitemap errors analysis
• Robots.txt analysis
• Advanced indexing information about your site
• Query statistics about your site
• Crawl statistics about your site
• Page analysis of your site
• URLs from your site that Google was unable to crawl, and why Google couldn't crawl them

  Note: If you already have a Google Webmaster Tools account, or have already submitted a sitemap, a duplicate account will not negatively affect your account. The Google Webmaster Tools feature in Website Builder will not override previous accounts or submissions.
