How to Add Users to Google Webmaster Tools

February 19, 2015 Leave a Comment

You can add users to your Google Webmaster Tools account after you’ve set it up and verified it. I went over in a previous post How to Set Up a Google Webmaster Tools Account –> https://www.designeditstudio.com/how-to-set-up-google-webmaster-tools/.

How to Add a user to Google Webmaster Tools:

On the Webmaster Tools home page, click the site you want.
Click the gear icon , and then click Users & Site Owners.
Click Add a new user.
Type the email address of the user you want to add, and select the permission level you want. More information about user permissions.
Click Add.

If you’re wondering why you would add a user, this is a very important step if you have a developer or someone who is knowledgeable on how to fix the errors and read the reports in webmaster tools (like me). If you’re cool with fixing any errors in your webmaster tools account yourself. You will need to have access to be able to do 301 redirects on your site and change or modify your robots.txt file, preferably, ftp access.

Need someone to fix your errors on your website? Contact Me and I will set up a time to discuss what needs to be done on your site and help you fix it.

Okay, so you have a new website or even an older one. Do know how Google is seeing your website? With Google Webmasters tools you can check the health of your website and keep your site from major errors with Google Search.

The most important part of having a webmaster tools account is to make sure your robots.txt file is searchable by Google and view any crawl errors and 404 errors. Those can be fixed easily by your developer who is knowledgeable in redirects and how to fix those errors in webmaster tools (like me).

How To Set Up a Google Webmaster Tools Account

Where to Sign Up for Google Webmaster Tools: https://www.google.com/webmasters/. You need a Google account to do this.
After you sign in, click on add a site.
Verify that you’re the owner of the site by doing one of the following: (this step is where I have my clients send me the file to upload to their server).
1. Upload a file to your server
2. Add a meta tag to your website’s HTML
3. Add a new DNS record
4. Use your Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager account

Once you’ve done this, you can start to manage and monitor your website!

Are you offering too many product options on your site for your customers or too many options on a contact form? This handy infographic gives you the low-down on how many options you should be offering. I always like to keep things simple, so I would be on the side of offering less options. What do you think?
