Google Enhances Webmaster Tools

[Joe]

Google is adding four new features:

- Googlebot activity reports
- Crawl rate control
- Enhanced image search
- Number of URLs submitted

Activity reports and crawl rate control immediately stand out to me as tools that stand to have the most benefit to webmasters.

Image search and the URL sitemap function seem to be fluff to me, but nice still.

Joe,

fantastic suite of tools. This takes the guesswork out of what Googlebot has and hasn't seen.
