1. Webmaster Tools Very user friendly also cant beat google lol

   1. I have already added the gadget and works cool.

      1. Ha, me too. I added it as soon as it was available. I removed it about an hour later. I realized that I have way too many sites, and I much prefer to just go to Webmaster Tools than try to use a different interface to access the information.

2. I found this awhile back and added to my google page, which is my browser homepage. It rocks! I love that it also provides easy links to each of the sections, which used to be annoying to get to without bookmarking.

   1. I haven’t added this yet but need to asap. Seems really cool. Are the updates realtime or close?

      1. I think some of the updates will depend on how often your page
         is crawled – for example the links stats.

3. looks great….thanks for posting…I wasn’t aware of this new features…last time I accessed my google webmaster account was months ago

   1. I see this is really quite nice.

4. True, webmaster tools give you access to a large number of vital stats, but these stats are more localized to googles search results. Anyways, Shoe, google has been going around trying to promote webmaster tools on igoogle too… so isn’t this kind of a repetitive post or something?

   1. Repetitive post? Ha, this coming from the 3rd in the top commentators list with 22 comments. Anyone else seeing the humour in this?

      😀

5. Wow I never thought to go look for that. That is way more efficient than logging into my account for a quick 50K view of what’s going on.

6. Yeah…nice one shoe. I need to start using that too. Would be nice if they came up with a firefox ext that did everything.

   1. I don’t get it. What could a Firefox extension ‘do’? There isn’t much that webmaster tools ‘does’, it’s more informational than anything.

7. but on 1 tab I have 6 content analysis from all the sites I am closely monitoring.

   How well do these handle multiple sites in an account? I have something like 120 sites in my GWT account, half of which are mine and half belong to clients. I don’t need to monitor *all* of them to that degree, but there are probably a dozen all told that I have to keep pretty close tabs on.

   (Get it? tabs? tabs? ork ork ork)

   Hunh, my iGoogle already has eight tabs on it, what’s another one…

8. Pretty nice Shoemoney, Thanks for the tip. I will look at it more closely.

9. That’s a cool tip indeed, but what a way to transform voilá to WHOLA! hehe

10. Wow cool. I am actually in Webmaster Tools all the time but never noticed this great feature. Thanks J I am goin to set it up now

11. That is pretty gosh darn awesome, adding that to my igoogle right now.

12. Google has really done a great job with webmaster tools. The information that they provide is extremely useful especially the top search queries section.

    They just recently released a script to give you a basic 404 page as well located under the Tools section. Considering most sites have a basic 404 page, Webmaster Tools provides a search box and related urls. Wrote a post about it as well as a series on webmaster tools on my blog.

    1. The 404 page is a nice feature, but I still prefer to not have any 404’s!

    2. I don’t know anything about page 404. What is it?

14. If only the webmaster tools pagerank stats would be more accurate

15. It would be nice to see the folks that created the Adobe Air app for Analytics add the webmaster Tools feateure too, I have never been a fan of iGoogle for some reason.

    Storm

16. WOW, that looks fantastic. Think I finally found a useful way to use iGoogle.

17. What a great feature. I saw some of the other widgets they offer but hadn’t real explored those items, until now. Thanx!

18. Hey, great tip. I’ve always wanted something like this for my iGoogle

19. Very cool, thanks shoe!
    Is there anyway to add analytics info?

    1. That would be great to have analytics on there as well, maybe even adsense/ad manager data in the future as well would make it easy for quick reference.

20. Anything Google does they seem to do it the best. The best part is the also do it for free. I just hope once they completly get a monopoly on the market they don’t start adding premium tools and cutting out any useful tools they have now.

22. Nice tips, Jeremy – Any ways to put the tool on my blogs/sites?

23. Thank you so much for pointing this out. i use iGoogle and have a ton or tabs and gadget, but not this which I could really use! Have it set up already.

24. I have added this to my igoogle but have have a few complaints. First, i wish there could be more tools for optimizing my sites. Still new to the seo game, I find that some of the tools are not as comprehensive as some that I have seen on other seo sites. Also, with the top ten organinic search placement, I wish you could expand the list and see more of where you are placing with other keywords and etc. Even with these small faults, it is a MUST HAVE for those looking to keep a good eye on their google seo.

25. It was nice of you to show the stats for your site. 🙂 Pretty amaizing how you rank so high for some of the keywords. 🙂

26. Definitely a useful/productive tip!

27. […] a sucker for good data, and the GWT doesn’t disappoint. Hat tip to Shoemoney for this Google […]

28. “Anything Google does they seem to do it the best. The best part is the also do it for free. I just hope once they completly get a monopoly on the market they don’t start adding premium tools and cutting out any useful tools they have now.”
    I agree totally with this. Analytics and admanager are just 2. Google earth, etc.

29. This saves me from even logging in, just boot up at work, pull up FF and viola its on my homepage. Now if I could just get someone to develop an api for wordpress comments that show on the google home page!

30. I am amazed that rather than log into your Webmaster Tools account, you can add the Webmaster Tools gadget to your Homepage and access information from there.

33. It was a very handy feature, maybe google would consider my request.

34. This really made a difference in my life.

35. But the sharing part doesn’t seem to work. I “shared” a tab with another user and when he logged in he did not see the webmasters tab from my account

36. I am trying that new guru provided by Google Webmaster Tool now, thanks!

37. Shoemoney, quick question with regards to the search function. Why did you change it from google to lijit?

38. WOW! I am using Webmaster tools from such a long time now and never noticed it.. Thanks

39. webmasters tool on google homepage
