GoDaddy.com, the world's largest domain name registrar, is integrating Google Webmaster Tools into customers' web hosting accounts so they can diagnose problems in how Google sees their site, share information with Google and improve their site's visibility in Google search results.
According to Go Daddy, this service, combined with its Sitemap Editor, provides a free and easy way for Web site owners to manage and improve traffic to their site. "Go Daddy hosting customers are now able to easily add and verify their Web sites for use with Google Webmaster Tools," it said. Once set up, Go Daddy will automatically submit sitemaps to Google on behalf of its customers. Sitemaps inform Google about new Web pages or updates to a customer's site and help to increase their coverage in Google's index.

According to Bill Brougher, Google group product manager, "Google Webmaster Tools was designed as a useful resource for site owners to get up-to-date information on how their site is performing. This partnership ultimately helps Google to improve the Web by increasing the comprehensiveness and freshness of the content people seek."

 Go Daddy claims to have more than 24 million domain names under management and says that, during 2006, it registered approximately one-third of all domain names registered in the top six generic top-level domains, including com, .net, .org, .biz, .info.{moscomment}
